I miss them all: John 2007 Mollie 2009, Wendy 2009, Trevor 2011, Frank 2013, Nicholas 2015. Arthur Brough, 1978 The best ensemble cast I have ever seen on television, ever .
This is also my favorite type of comedy, use of witt and charm rather than slapstick routines, hence why I mostly prefer British comedy such as this and keeping up appearances. Also why I do not like Jerry Lewis type comedy predicated on stupidity.
This show has been a mainstay for me as a means of making light of a busy day or being down in the doldrums or just a means of relaxation - I believe most of the original actors have passed, however, I hope their legacy of such an iconic and much appreciated entertainment feature will continue towards the future (I am 82 years old and I live in Rarotonga, Cook Islands, South Pacific)
Where I used to work, everyone in my department watched this show. it got to the point where we called each other Mr. or Mrs/Miss and if we needed/wanted to speak to each other we said Mr.--- are you free? Lol.
My folks divorced when I was 4. When I turned 18 I was able to get back in contact with my dad and on weekends we would bond together while watching this show
Same! My mom would watch reruns of this before taking me to school in the morning and we'd catch Keeping Up Appearances every chance we had. Both shows help me keep her memory alive.
I loved the show and still do. My mom passed away but it was the same with me my mom didn't care about the show. My mom would still be gone but I wish she would have watched the show with me because lord could I have used the fond memories.
One thing we can say about Mr rumbold is that he is not lecherous-he usually has the most attractive secretaries but all he is interested is in his 'boardroom level meetings
I don't think Mr. Rumbold's character would be possible to endure if he had the libido of Captain Peacock, Mr. Lucas, or heck ... Mr. Grace. It would have creeped him up big time in a way that's difficult to explain. It's easy to like him as an incompetent (but generally well-intended) oblivious, asexual, doofus.
@@erikah1468 I imagine it would be, but I don't know anyone eccentric enough to know or love this show as I do. Wish I lived near you, sounds like a good laugh!
My grandfather introduced me to Are You Being Served in the mid 90s. I’ve seen them all several times. Still, I seek them out every couple years or so. Great show coupled with the wonderful memories makes rewatching even more enjoyable.
Was watching this series with me dad in the 2000s. He's gone now, passed away. But I still keep watching this bc of memories and they're like family to me by now because of memory. I have the whole series on dvd including the xmas episodes. But all is packed away for now till I move again, so watching it here is my best bet.
Same with me ! The only surgery I ever had was when I donated a kidney to my younger brother. It was done up in San Francisco and during my week's stay I watched lots of "Are You Being Served" on the SF PBS affiliate (in fact, they have TWO PBS stations up in the Bay Area).
I love this show! It was shown on "public television" here in the US, but no more. I miss it. "Are You Being Served" was a very fun part of my Saturday evenings.
@@smilergrogan1725 I WONDER IF ON JUDY CABLE. CHANNEL 39 PBS NOT HAD IT ON YEARS AND I AIN'T PAY FOR CABLE BECAUSE OF THE FILTH. I DON'T EVEN ITEM A TV SET ANYMORE, AND DON'T EVER WANT ONE AGAIN! TOO MUCH TRASH IN USA. BUT BRITCOMS WE'RE WONDERFUL!!!
Never ceases to amaze me the way these actors/actresses were so amzing together, the way Frank Thornton uses his facial expressions and the way he portrays authority figures is simply hilarious
Seen this episode a few times. Just as hilarious again. No cast compares to this one in history of television, nor the writing. Absolutely a genius show. Thank you for bringing it to us
This is one of their best! So many great lines, each superbly delivered. The gags and prop bits worked smoothly. I am constantly delighted with this show....watched all of them dozens of times and can go to sleep listening to them too.
Hahaha 😂😂 this show was hilarious 😂 I absolutely ❤ the British humor 😊 I always watched these series with my (late) dad. Now I have it all on dvd 🙏 Allo, Allo; It ain't half hot, mum; Keeping up appearances; Are you being served?; Fawlty towers and George & Mildred ❤ the best of the best from the BBC and I have it all! 🙌 🇬🇧
I love how they kept small mistakes in such as when Mr Grainger starts his line early asking where the iron came from. It somehow makes it more personable and not so strangely polished and perfect like modern shows. Also it has an almost stage feel, especially the earlier episodes with how the dialogue was written and presented and the scene blocking. I felt it really worked well for the show.
@ASG66 - It's not stretching it at all. The more times you watch these episodes, the more you realise how utterly brilliant the cast, the writing and the directing are.
Been watching it here in the States since it was first introduced and believe it or not I never get tired of it. It was most expertly made and the actors were fantastic. So very sorry they are all are all gone now. But at least we have their videos....... And they definitely are a treasure!!!
ahhh..Are You Being Served...the show of infinitely repeatable episodes. I've heard so many say this, and I feel the same, that there's about this show that the episodes are so inifnitely watchable. You can watch them over and ove and not tire of them. They really found some sort of magic comedic formula in this show :)
@@thumbprint7150 "My Mother the Car" is an American TV sitcom that ran for one season (fall of 1965 thru the spring of 1966) on the NBC network. It starred Jerry Van Dyke (real life brother of TV comedy icon Dick Van Dyke) as a husband and father whose mother is reincarnated as an automobile (a 1912 Porter to be exact). She speaks to him thru the car radio. The mother's voice was provided by veteran movie & TV actress Ann Sothern. Clips from the series can be seen here at CZcams. I have fond memories of watching it as a kid. CHEERS !! :-)

This episode with the hidden spirit bottle has to be on the top 5 episodes. That's what you get when you rearrange someone else's set-up/display (Peacock sipping on perfume at the end).
I really like the ways the staff are trying to find to keep comfortable in the cold. Captain peacock has the best idea wear extra clothing under their outer clothing.

This is my favorite show I keep this on repeat they don't make it like this no more
So good to be able to laugh with this bunch. Not enough comedy on UTUBE, thanks.
Ahh the good old late 80's early 90's, this show came on pbs. Never gets old❤️
bloody hilarious this show makes me smile when feeling down, absolute legends the actors!
The same here with All Bundy
I always like how Mr. Rumbold looks reverently at the ceiling when he mentions the board.
One of the funniest episodes of this show ever. The cast is in perfect comedic form. I never get sick of this one. LOVE this show.
No you don't.
Oh yes we do!
I just love young Mr. Grace, he's precious.
Mr. Grace is a shyt bag
Proper dirty old man.🤣🤣🤣
Rumbold looks heavenward when speaking of the boardroom
I know most if not all episodes pretty much by heart, I've watched them so many times. They never grow old to me.

I LOVE this show, I used to watch this on PBS...they don't show this anymore. Love Mrs. Slocombe and her cat references ....
That was so funny, her family was a bit put off by the double entendre.
They said as much in interviews.
I watch it once a week to fall asleep to. Awesome cast and A1 acting!
The alarmists were pitching the end of oil even back then and it was reflected in this episode. There is still plenty of oil.
And enough coal for an eternity.
One of the best written comedy shows of all time delivered impeccably by a perfect cast of characters. Doesnt get much better then this folks.
Allo allo
Keeping up ap.
Mr. Rumbold: The fact is, we cannot get enough.
Mr. Humphries and Mr. Lucas in unison: True.

In almost every episode. Infinished sentences or sentences with no clarity leaving everyone to assume Rumbolt can follow up. Its like watching Abbot and Constello doing the Who's On First routine....lol.

This show will always be an absolute gem! Great memories!

I love the episodes there you see them clearly standing motionless for a moment at the beginning. Not many, but it happened.
I discovered this gem(believe it or not) on PBS in the (very) early 80's
"Oh...Buckets! lol!😆🤣
