Well, young mr Grace isn't exactely the big spender, so he'd probably insist on cheap plonk and recycled blowticklers.... I'd bring my own. Bubbly that is. 😉🍾🍾🎉
I like how she turns from queenly demeanaor to street talk to little girl on a dime as need be, so funny lol. 14:15 she's really having a fun time here. Of course Peacock's wife thinks she's the one cheating on her husband while Ms Slocum thinks she's interviewing for a job
you know when you struck comedy gold, when 60 years later the serie is still funny as hell!. the whole cast was brilliant, the writting exellent!, it is a true masterpiece of english humor!.
Mollie Sugden (Mrs. Slocombe) made several appearances on PBS pledge drives in the US in the late 90s when PBS aired this along with several other classic BBC comedies on their national network on Saturday nights. She was well into her 70s and was known to be a fantastic gourmet cook. She cared enough to travel to the US to do it for her fans. Talk about dedication!
@@BruceAlariebecause an old fashioned pudding (roly-poly pudding) is done up in a cheesecloth bag, and steamed, then it's served by turning out of the bag and slicing it up. If you were to stick a pudding under your shirt, you'd look pregnant. The soft Jell-O style pudding of the US is called custard in the UK. Roly-poly pudding can be sweet, but steamed boiled puddings are also savory, and blood pudding is a thing as well. Haggis is basically a type of pudding.
My God. They are all dead now 😱. Never occurred to me. Used to watch when I was a child and never thought about it. Except for young Mr. Grace or Grainger.
I can't believe it's been that long. I discovered it on the local PBS channel along with Keeping Up Appearances. Saturday evenings the TV was always tuned into those 2 shows.
If you had to choose five "of the best" episodes, this would be one of them. Virtually every line of dialogue is a comic gem, and everyone gets to participate with their funny-for-their-character lines. What a great ensemble cast, RIP to all of them.
I love the episode with The Bliss Girl and her perfume display. And the episode Big Brother with the spying cameras. And the one where Mrs Slocombe’s cat is expecting. The discussion at the canteen table is comic gold.
Lol, the pudding club? Love the British comedies...The most interesting part of this episode is that Mrs Slocum runs so fast down the stairs in high heels and doesn't lose her footing.
I love how she can really communicate with her hilarious facial expressions. I saw an interview with the actress who played her. She told the story of how Mrs Slocombe's hair color changed from episode to episode, she had suggested it to make the character more fun. She at first was coloring her own hair because the show didn't want to pay for wigs but it began to damage her hair so she had to stop. Fans started asking why Mrs Slocombe didn't have the colored hair, the powers that be relented & purchased colored wigs.
I don't think I have seen a comedy show quite with this rapid pace of jokes, come backs, and innuendo. Best episode of the best series. Rapid fire comedy at it's best.
I don't know which character I love the most. I watch these episodes over and over and over. I can't get enough of Mr Humphries and Mr Lucas. They are so natural and funny and their timing is perfection. RIP cast of AYBS 😇
Mr. Grainger and young Mr. Grace always crack me up with lines that appear so out of character because both are portrayed as a little senile but then something really sharp and biting drops out of their mouths such as when Mr. Grainger suggested giving Mrs. Slocombe a cyanide capsule for her birthday (better make get two in case one is not enough) or when young Mr. Grace suggests burning down the store for the insurance money like he did in the 1920s :)
I grew up watching this on PBS, my dad and I, and how I HATED pledge drives they cancelled these shows for musicals!!!! (Dad is gone now too). First episode I have seen in 30+ years.
What a great show this was. Mrs Slocombe was in Long Island in 96 for a broadcast, do I FedEx'd an envelope from my travel agency and she mailed me a lovely letter. What a cast!
One thing I always love about Mrs Slocombe is she puts on airs, in posture, expression and tone, when talking to Harmon and Mash, but if they have some store gossip she gets all friendly and treats them like best friend DDS. 😁😁🤪
I think these characters all understand that under the quibbling and (at the time) ebbing importance of British social class, which makes work more fun, when it's truly important, they've always had each others backs and actually care about each other.
And the next object is a lie!! A lie!! Great delivery by John Inman. Mrs Slocombe being chased by Mrs Peacock and then hit over the head by her umbrella was just hilarious. Captain Peacock was sure in a fine mess with his wife. Poor Mr Granger getting a three tiered cake smashed over his head was funny too.
My name is Bonnie and I'm 78 years young and I live in Salt Lake City USA, I've been watching The English soaps since I can't even remember are you being served with so funny English comedy is absolutely amazing. I loved all the show born to the matter butterflies I know there was one where a guy would walk out the back door of his shop and he'd be in an alleyway and he was in another time like during the war but I don't remember the name of it but these shows are amazing. Thank you so much for sharing this there's nothing like English comedy it's really the best in the world💜💜💯
this episode is simply a masterpiece - I have seen AYBS series many many times and this particular episode still makes me laugh out loud! I miss you all ....
This is absolutely my favorite episode of the entire series. It's such a slapstick, fast-paced comedic romp with so many good lines and visuals, one can't help but laugh out loud at least once.
This has to be one of the top ten episodes! The pacing, the slapstick, the hilarious dialogue, and the best quality guest stars make this truly great. Diana King has only a few minutes to establish her character and make us laugh and she nails it right out of the box. Great stuff!
first time for me to see this particular episode - shows how well the writers and the cast were on the same page. Tough to maintain that continuity when some of the main characters left.
This was such a great series. Never get tired of watching. Great characters and writing. Love Mrs Slocombe, Mr. Peacock, Humphries, Lucas, Shirley, Rumbold, Grainger...all of them. Television shows were amazing back in the 70s, 80s, and even the 90s. Miss those decades.
Agree! So much better than today’s shows, full of gratuitous sex and disgusting language, both of which are a testament to the lack of true talent & actual creativity.
“Thank you everybody. You’ve all done very well!” Rest in peace all the cast members. I’ve watched all the episodes and never get tired of it. Please share and share them again to your friends and relatives so that they can enjoy as much as we do. Like a laugh therapy healing after a stressful day 💐
@Cat Prw - Couldn’t have said it better. We could all use a laugh especially with state of the world today and It’s why I’m here. I got laid off because of this pandemic and lost my mom a few weeks ago. This makes me feel somewhat better for at least a while. 😊
Mrs. Peacock: "I shall see to it that your name appears in every newspaper and they shall know you for what you are!" "Mrs. Slocombe: "Fame at last!" Ha ha! Best line of this show. And my favorite episode of the series.
Yes, by this stage of the run they knew their characters and the situation so well they were all firing at the peak of their performances-the show was never quite the same for me after Mr Grainger passed and then when Mr Lucas left it went downhill again, was still always funny but was never as good as episodes like this.
@@leecoulson4224 I always wondered why Arthur Brough (Mr. Grainger) left the show. So he died after season 5? I felt the same way; it just wasn't the same with Mr. Tebbs, and the other replacements, with the exception of maybe Alfie Bass (who played Mr. Goldberg for several episodes). Then when Mr. Lucas left, it just felt sad. I watch all these in repeats, and now that I have Brit Box for streaming, I can watch any episode I want at any time. So I'm just sticking with rewatching seasons 1-5 over and over again. LOVE this show!!!
I'm 40 and literally have been watching this show my entire life at 10pm on PBS Monday through Thursday. Its something I forward to and it makes me laugh no matter what.
I Love British Comedys. Are you being served is one of my favorites. I never get tired of watching these Episodes. Love, respect and positivity always. Vee.🙂💕🤗✌️🕯️🦋🌠🌻🙏👋👣.
I started watching this show in the mid 90s when the whole cast was alive. I would watch it night after night because it was humorous & I had worked at 2 different dept. Stores. I stopped watching the show after 10 yrs as I knew the dialogue for each show. I haven't seen on so long that it's fresh all over again! A big thank you for posting this delightful series!
When I cook and wash dishes I always watch an episode or five! Ms. Brahms hair looks elegant and she looks so demure in this episode. Mr Lucas and Mr Humphries always get front row seats to madness. remember “No Sale?”, when the woman and her husband got into a fight and she started tearing the dress, both were just watching the festivities!
doctorwho0077 Funny.. I always used to say that about a few ex neighbors I used to have. That and “with them ppl around who needs a damn tv! Just pull up s chair and watch!”
Brilliant comedy...hasn't been anything like this since this...what's "pathetic" is that, we don't have real comedy for entertainment, and these actors would (or not) surprised that there isn't anything comparable after they've stopped filming this series. Mollie has done other satire, but not with the rest of these masters (of course, the script writers). The reason they're funny, is their dynamic. I would've loved to have been a "fly" on the wall for the discussion of the characters.
@doctorwho0077 So what! who cares!! We can call it what we want. Yet, we all know what it is when we hear it. It all comes down to the same shit, we love the show and the theme song, that's what I call it, Capice!!

I love how her hair is always different colours and she suits every colour ❤❤❤
I am unanimous in that
But I believe Mrs. Slocumb's ruffle was bigger than she was in this episode. But her hair was perfectly coiffed! LOL
One of the best shows ever!
Don’t make shows this good anymore.

Yes the dynamics of everyone works so well, I used to watch this when I was 8 years old with my parents and I understood the comedy back then
"We live in a detached house!"
"Only because they pulled down all the other ones round it."
I'm sorry, but is it like a homeless shelter?
you know when you struck comedy gold, when 60 years later the serie is still funny as hell!. the whole cast was brilliant, the writting exellent!, it is a true masterpiece of english humor!.

You're off about 12 years. It's not THAT old.
Im from the USA 🇺🇸 and I love this and all the British comedies God bless 🙏🏿
1972-85 almost fifty years from the start. About 35 since it ended.......still funny though...😅
And you know you've struck gold when 3 years later people are still appreciating your comment.
I have been watching this show since I was a teen back in the early 80's. I NEVER get tired of watching them over and over again!!!❤
I used to watch in the 80s with my mum. They were among my happiest times with her 😁🥰🥲

She wasn't in her 70s already!
I remember that.
That's awesome ❤❤
For those wondering: "the pudding club" = the state of being pregnant
Thank you
Never knew that. In the British language
yes why do they call it that?
@@BruceAlariebecause an old fashioned pudding (roly-poly pudding) is done up in a cheesecloth bag, and steamed, then it's served by turning out of the bag and slicing it up.

So...he was implying he gave her his "pudding"?
"You think you invented it?!" Old Grainger sure got them with that one. RIP AYBS cast, thank you for all you gave us.
My God. They are all dead now 😱. Never occurred to me. Used to watch when I was a child and never thought about it. Except for young Mr. Grace or Grainger.
I had to ask a friend what that meant he lol I did to
Really young people are under they impression that they are the first to do anything.
@@pamelahayes8593 Good comedy is wasted on the feeble minded.
His best line, ever. Hands down.
one of my favourite British comedy shows
Linda Stambaugh, Keeping up appearances and last of the summer wine was hilarious too. And you can see Trevor Banister in both of these.
What an absolute treasure this show is.
I have always enjoyed British Commodity & I'm a Yank from across the Pond,here in Texas, 🙏 ❤

Enjoyed it for many years now back again with the same pleasure as if 50 years hasn't passef❤
I love when Ms Slocomb says "She didn't cry when she thought it was me" and Mr Lucas leans forward "Funny that". Thats hilarious. Best episode ever.

I do as well... You're right! : )
👍☺
Especially the early episodes. The later ones tended to fall flat. I can watch them repeatedly😊

Check out ms brown Boys its funny also
I love all the characters. The best TV show ever. I still get tickled.
Discovered this show in 2012 on PBS. British humor at its finest. Mr Lucas and Humphries were hilarious!

Mr. Humphries!!! Unforgettable…..
A prime example episode of why this show has remained so watchable for so long. Many thanks for posting.👍
I wish I lived next door to Mr. Humphries. I could not imagine anyone but John Inman playing him. Always charming!
Miss Braum's funniest line of the entire series! "I don't think she got the job!"

"Fame at Last" perfect timing and made me laugh so loud n hard,
I loved this show. It was classic English humor.
Mrs Slocombe racing thru with Mrs. Peacock right behind her. Loved that.
When I first saw that I laughed so hard I had tears coming out of my eyes
Mrs. Slocombe ran down those steps pretty well despite wearing heels.
This episode in particular is a master class in comedic timing, all orchestrated by this amazing cast.

My favorite part of the episode was the facial reactions from Mr. Humphries and Mr. Lucas when Captain Peacock's wife was tearing into him.
I always laugh when Rumbolt takes his glasses off and looks confused 🤣
He doesn't need to take off his glasses for that bc he always look confused 😐
😂😂😂

Nicholas Smith had said that Rumbold's glasses wasn't just a prop, but a part of the whole character
One thing I find amusing that the actor playing Mr. Lucas was actually older than Mr. Humphries and born the same year as Mr. Rumbolt.
Absolutely fabulously British comedy! I grew up whatching these episodes...and still enjoy whatching them.

I just can’t get enough of this series. Truly a treasure and superb comedy. I have watched this over the years again and again.✨❤️
Mr. Humphries and Mr. Lucas agreeing with each other and repeating each other's lines is just amazing.
They are something else. This show is so funny. I just love it.
That talk between Slocombe and Mrs. Peacock, brilliant piece of comedy*
Comody? so, you liked it or did you believe it belonged in the comode?
Daktyl the One Man Tribe 🙄🙄
commody
Is there a Mrs peacock? He is such a cock, i cant imagine a lady of good reputation marrying him!
@@JustinCarmackorJoopyDactyl my bad, spelling mistakes occur sometimes. i guess my english is still better than your italian
gritty nitty. I love Mrs. Slocombe
“It’s bound to ride up with wear” Hilarious
I loved this when it was on telly here in Australia in the 70s. Loved it, Dad's Army and the Two Ronnies! 🇦🇺
Fabulous episode. So funny, well written and acted.
Been watching this for years love this
Show I'm 57 years old love it
Mrs Slocombe-"anything to get out of underwear"😄
I love are you being served till I die my husband had a painting made of John Inman for me I love it .
Was John wearing the French Maid outfit for the portrait ?
When I cook and wash dishes I always watch an episode or five!
Ms. Brahms hair looks elegant and she looks so demure in this episode.
Mr Lucas and Mr Humphries always get front row seats to madness. remember “No Sale?”, when the woman and her husband got into a fight and she started tearing the dress, both were just watching the festivities!
That's what happened all right. Thanks.
I watch while cooking and doing dishes, also!❤️
doctorwho0077 Funny.. I always used to say that about a few ex neighbors I used to have. That and “with them ppl around who needs a damn tv! Just pull up s chair and watch!”
I get so happy when I hear the opening song!!! 🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶
I thought I was the only one 😃
@doctorwho0077 to some it's a song, a theme song.
It's different but it's still a song. Instruments and voice (over) for theme song💫🎈🎺🎶🎼🎵
Brilliant comedy...hasn't been anything like this since this...what's "pathetic" is that, we don't have real comedy for entertainment, and these actors would (or not) surprised that there isn't anything comparable after they've stopped filming this series. Mollie has done other satire, but not with the rest of these masters (of course, the script writers). The reason they're funny, is their dynamic. I would've loved to have been a "fly" on the wall for the discussion of the characters.
I know, me too
@doctorwho0077 So what! who cares!! We can call it what we want. Yet, we all know what it is when we hear it. It all comes down to the same shit, we love the show and the theme song, that's what I call it, Capice!!
