Are You Being Served?

For those who don't know, its a BBC comedy from the late seventies and early eighties. I just borrowed the first few DVDs (five episodes apiece) from the library and the show is hilarous!

Very entertaining and worth watching if you get the chance.

I can't believe I haven't seen this before or heard anything about it. I'm old enough to be a teenager when the show was in production but until the last week, (to quote a great tv phrase) I knew nothing.

Anyone else watch it?

Is that the one with the lingerie shop? If so, I used to catch bits and pieces of it back in the day. The British have a weird sense of humor... but it's still funny. Monty Python is one of my favorites.

It was set in a ficticious store called Grace Brothers. It had a mens and womens department. The British do have a weird sense of humor, but its a good one for the most part.

I loved that show! I was laid up for a few weeks back when I was 11, and watched an episode a day for a month.

Ahh Mrs Slockam, you and your pussy.

That show is hilarious. It has mr. Peacock and hes like the mens departments supervisor and mrs. Slocome were hilarious, especially when they would fight all the time. Then ms. brahms was real slutty and mr. lucas had a crush on her and that was great too. mr. Humphreys was the funny fruit that always talked about his mom and mr. tibbs was the old guy that was about to crock off but funnier than crap. that was a funny show and should still be around today. What about any of the oher brittish comedies? has anyone ever heard of keeping up apperances? Thats a good one too!

I've seen it. A few years ago it used to be on PBS late at night. It's a hilarious show. Haven't watched it in years though.

Hey Taranaki and 2strokebloke,
Could there be the slight possibilty that we actually agree on something! This truly is a sign of the end times so everyone get prepared, JESUS IS COMING BACK!
