True. I'm thinking 1972 when Hawtrey gets the heave-ho, just before AYBS.

I didn't realise he was an actor until a couple of years ago watching AYBS and my sister told me he was the one who sang it 😁

I see no issue, as Mr.Grainger from the AYBS would say, "it'll ride up with wear." And if you don't want it "it'll ride down with wear."
Apologies for having watched old British comedy.

AYBS is my favorite show of all time. A one episode return as a tribute to the cast is great.

I can date it's approximately purchase by knowing that Amazulu and Dire Straights were on Top of Pops, and that the last series of AYBS was being shown, cos these the first things we taped

It was still run by the family at that stage, and we were expected to address them as "Mr [first name]". We found AYBS? hilarious because it was so close to the truth. I worked in the bookshop, but two years was long enough and I moved on to library work.

They gave it a brief mention on the way to talking about George And Mildred so they acknowledged it. I guess the reason why it wasn't 'featured' was because they went with G&M but yes, it's an obvious omission, along with AYBS - both being hits in the States (MATH remake and original AYBS).

All members and allies of the LGBTIQ+ community needs to stand up for trans rights, because it's the trans people who've been the first of the #lgbt family to be targeted extra harsh.

And as mrs Slocombe from AYBS would say it:
"I'm unanimous in that opinion."

Trump signs sweeping order to further restrict trans care for minors nationwide
The order says the U.S. will not “fund, sponsor, promote, assist, or support” transition-related care for minors, which it defines as those under age 19.

That’s so sad to hear. There won’t be many (if any) of the AYBS cast left now 🥲

I really liked Mike Berry - he always seemed to me to be such a genuinely nice guy. Bless him.

if you're ever in the Bay Area, you should try Humphrey Slocombe ice cream - named after the two AYBS characters (and their relationship)

Same idea as the German Week episode of AYBS.

Should have had Mollie Sugden on stage.
Top of the Pops (4th March 1982). It's time for some thigh-slapping as Zoo jig around to Deutscher Girls by Adam & The Ants.

An early version of the thing, though not in the context of AYBS.

The Stage, 24 May 1973.

Alfie was the 2nd actor to play a replacement to Mr Grainger in “Are You Being Served”

The first, James Hayter, was the voice of “Mr Kipling”

Kipling loved him, he made their products “classy”..

They thought AYBS smutty so payed James a shedload of cash on top of advert money to stop doing it!

AYBS always used to come on late at night on PBS when I was a kid and I would watch it and giggle at Mrs. Slocomb's pussy

Are the episodes available on a streaming service?

Said it before but I know it got absolutely slated when it first went out but actually quite a funny show and certainly better than the last couple of series of the original AYBS (watched a lot of old comedy during lockdown and actually found in general I preferred G&F).

The 1970s-80s British comedy Are You Being Served? I recorded every episode shown on my local Fresno PBS in the mid-90s and watched obsessively. I still can quote episodes.

If you read my books, you'll notice AYBS? character names are used in tribute.
there are quite a few but i’d go with

Leverage or Gossip Girl
