So do I.

Except for Arthur Brough, all of their deaths were all very close to each other. Within 8 short years, they all passed away! How sad!

Only one left is Mr. Spooner

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.

Yes indeed!

Really missed, still watching in 2022

Wilberforce Humphries, Men's Wear...👔

Luis, long time no read...HAPPY HOLIDAYS, my friend! @@luisreyes1963

If you take the body you’ll definitely not leave the family jewels alone!!!

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

You get uwfuqhe Guggenheim he ege

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.

Me my mom and dad watched this up till she passed away in June 2018

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.

Yes a glass of water for Mrs.solcomb's pussy

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.

Trying to keep it together!

Julie...I've noticed that, so I've come with two reasons, 1) he wishes he could be up there, and 2) he fears the board might decide to fire him...

😂😂😂😂😂 He would die for Grace Brothers!!

1:00 5:08

Same here. 😉

It’s be fun to get a group together to recite or act out these together!

I love them all as well, do you have a favourite one by chance?

@@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!

@@cypher7648 my favorite episode is "The Apartment" when Mrs. Slocombe sets up house upstairs in Grace Brothers. 😆

The same here with All Bundy

ikr!! cracked me up, as well😂!

Mr. Grace is a shyt bag

Proper dirty old man.🤣🤣🤣

No you don't.

Oh yes we do!

That was so funny, her family was a bit put off by the double entendre. They said as much in interviews.

Here the same. Greetings from Holland

And enough coal for an eternity.

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).

Laughter is the best medicine😂😂😂😂 Hope you're all feeling much better 😊

You need to thank this program for your recovery!!!!!

Why the hell has it been taken off here in the U.S where I’m at?! What’s the idiotic reason?!

It's still on PBS Station Saturday night at 7:30 pm

IT'S NOT ON ON US! HASN'T BEEN IN YEARS

@@dianalynntritch1970 That's not true... it's been on every Saturday night 7:30 for as long as I can remember. I just watched it last week.

@@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!!!

HEE HEE HEE... MR HUMPFRIES ON THE RISE!!

I really Loved the Episode with Charles Nelson Reilly !!!

Allo allo Keeping up ap.

Think about all the names carefully. They are all descriptions of the characters. Most ingenious!

Old mister Grace doesnt go about much😅

Same 😅

Meow. Same.

They needn't worry....word on the street is that they'll "ride up with wear" !!

@@jubalcalif9100 😂😂😂

@@alonzoeley5918 :-)

That was hilarious 🤣

Oven mitts touted as foot warmers, that was rich !

Promoting Oven Mitts as foot warmers, and selling them as a fuel economy measure. Hilarious.

Yea I immediately thought he's playing with him self Lucas probably did too lmao

It was priceless.

J. H. Jones bt

I swear I almost hear a proverbial horse laugh after every joke told 🐴

I don't think some of them were acting! 🤣🤣🤣

At the moment yes

I agree 100 per cent !! :-)

Miss that time !! No f.... Woke !

My father introduced the show to me in the 1970's. It's been a favorite of mine ever since.

I introduced Me, Myself and I, to "Are You being served" by turning on the Telly, switching to PBS and watching it 😁👀😁

Ryan Richardson: Seek them out every couple of years? Ridiculous you need to see them every week if possible!

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.

Has any one seen them in black and white.they start to come on in.the 60s.black and white only.

1979 for me

For me, it was 1991! My local PBS station (Florida) used to show this on Saturday nights. (Good Life,To the Manor Born, And AYBS)

Ya just gotta love Mr. Humphreys!

,

ME TOO!

It's only make believe. Calm down.

Same here!! Sunday nights on WTTW Channel 11

Same in Belgium

I never tire I've seen each and every episode Time after time

Agree. (Mr. Harmon*)

They are as revolting as the socialist ideology they represent. At least Harmon is a bit more human and less one-trick pony.

@@CzechMirco I agree with you. I do very much like the characters, but unions were started by socialists, and for the purpose of pushing the evil of Socialism, and eventually full Communism on an unsuspecting free, productive and prosperous and capitalism based population. Nowadays, we're unfortunately getting close to the end goal of that pernicious Marxist movement. Either we defeat them, or we will go under the bootheel of tyranny, possibly forever.

@@sandrajovic9304 I too preferred Mister Harmon as maint man.

Great time. No Woke !!!!

NasbySZ Brown Carry on! You've all done very well!🎩

I agree 100 per cent !!

Almost like he is talking about the Prime Minister or something

@@sunnieelsey1817 I was thinking of a somewhat higher authority. :-D

Well actually I was too...D

Then again Young Mr Grace seems to fall asleep in there... like hearing a boring discourse on something. Lol

No it doesn’t

BcD L one of the best sitcoms ever.

But I did - been watching this, off and on, over 40 years, still love it.

And never will

Yeah, this is my favorite brit com.

It will always be timeless. Always. That's why it's (called) timeless. 💋💄❤

Yes, it certainly will. Thank goodness Goddard would be there if he got too carried away.

The only two cast members still living are Penny Irving (Mr. Grace's secretary) and the canteen manageress.

Vivienne Johnson (Mr. Grace's nurse) is also still living, as is Mike Berry (Mr. Spooner)

@me LOL! True. But I can imagine that burst of warmth would feel amazing to anyone that cold.

oh, is THAT what that means? LOL, I never got the joke.

@@leomdk939 I have no idea, actually. That's just how I interpreted it, based on my personal experience.

@@AdirondackRuby Mr Humphries was talking about the hot air about his balls, whilst he was ballroom dancing, with a drink of Pep & Rum.

@@AdirondackRuby Thinking of Mr Humpfreeze, who was in a "civil partnership" with a man named Ron in real life, when I read you wore dresses when young, my mind did a hicup. LOL. But I don't have to interject here "to each there own" cause now I know what you were poofing. Or do I? LOL. Oh, the dress. I could not interprete the humor about going to the ball exactly, but the comment made sense. :) Cold does make things retract up. In these days of computers, to finally video something as you vowed, how about sitting down and reciting the joke of Neil Gaiman. There is no text. A tangent; the expression "turn the other cheek" - for all my life I thought it refered to a person's bum. (uk term). If someone hits my cheek, I'm ducking next time. As for the IMO corruption of the word "marriage" by the gay community and the USA, instead of using a newer term, a better term such as "civil partnership", married makes as much sense as "Insert tab A into tab B". It does not work, except in legal documents.

Josh Neilsom priceless indeed!!!

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!!!

I can’t agree more

Mrs Brown boys

Your mom indeed has inculcated in you some good taste to appreciate such good pieces of direction👍..RIP.....Best Wishes from India

YT hiding comments again as if ppl don't have right to free speech or press!! Filthy Commies!!!!

It was no "My Mother the Car"...but this series I will admit was SMASHING !! :-)

Wim...I also keep coming back again and again...it's non-PC pure comedy and talent everywhere!

@@marinazagrai1623 What a pity, that they are gone now. I miss them.

@@jubalcalif9100 - My Mother the Car? Who, what where, when?

@@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 UKposts. I have fond memories of watching it as a kid. CHEERS !! :-)

👍

Ain't it the truth ? Which is funny seeing as how the jokes are always basically the same.

Yes!

Bethan Griffiths Good morning Mr Humphreys I withdraw the offer

@@drewski1535 😂😂😂💀

😂😂😂😂

Bethan...that has to be one of the best lines among the many many others - this show contains some of the best one-liners!

Amen to that !! :-)

Tenmil open all nighen all houses t

True and agree❣

@doctorwho0077 Indeed. It's not fair that the ladies can't keep warm like the men.

You must remember Capt Peacock was in the war That's where he learnt all these battlefield tactics

@doctorwho0077 Even a Corporal would know about wearing things underneath to keep warm

And if they had told the staff ahead of time about the decision to turn off the heat, they could have done the same ... ;)

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.

At the same point, it is one thing for the staff to suffer the cold, but quite another to force the customers to suffer it.

Yes. I was just thinking the same thing👍

GES Mr. Grain-ja is bloody fun-nay
