    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.

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.
