I can watch every episodes like zillion times and still don't get bored. The subject matter is just perfect to watch when you want to forget something and enjoy your time without anything in the show reminding of your awful days. 10/10 perfect show.
Other videos on RUclips about tragedies, riots, left against right politics, gender issues and damn podcasts. I needed to come back to this show everyday for my own sanity.
' my awful days ' hahaha that's a riot ! and would be true if not for nice shows like this and knowing that there good things that happen and everything does not suck . thank you .
If 'Keeping up Appearances' was in the 70s, instead of the 90s; Mr. Humphreys would have made a perfect son for Mrs. Bucket. His Sheridan would have been spot on.
Yes! Plus we would finally be able to see the elusive Sheridan Bouquet with his Mummy getting his lunch ready for work and then showing up at Grace Brothers to make sure he eats it 😂😂😂
One of the best shows ever made. Seen every episode so many times, I can recite all the lines along with the actors,never get tired of it. Nothing made on American TV could ever match it.
Correct. Old American comedies are head and shoulders better than this. They'd have to fall a long way to match it. However, British comedy is second to American, and that's pretty good.
fjccommish ÀYBS I is far above our comedy here in the US. . It has two gifts: the writing , and the chemistry between cast members. They were close in life too , esp. Mollie and Wendie , and Frank and Trevor .
I've heard people say The Golden Girls was their television family. As a 62 year old orphan i would like to say - This is MY television family, now and for always!
You've brought up an interesting question. For everyone reading this, who is YOUR television family? I really like the Golden Girls, but I've never thought of them as a television family. I'm 45, so I'd have to say that The Cosby Show or Family Ties was my TV family. I miss those days of campfire television. Everyone gathered around the only tv set in the house and shared some wholesome entertainment together as a family. It's a shame that kids born in the twenty-first century will never experience that really. Everyone has their own device and can watch full seasons at any time.
@@stephenturner757 well, sounds like this might not fit your definition per the Golden Girls, but the 4077th on M*A*S*H was probably my TV family. I was 10 years old when the show ended, but while I saw it I absorbed compassion from Radar, sarcasm from Hawkeye, common sense and dignity from Col. Potter, devotion to your family from BJ, and an appreciation for a strong woman from Margaret.
My heart goes out to any orphan of any age. Wouldn't it be marvelous to spend time after hours with them all inside a pub? Nagging on each other all the time during working hours, but notice how on lunch break they all sit together and commiserate about their jobs. And stand together when Mr. Rumbold comes up with some daft idea.
Such fond memories of this show. My mom was sick at the time, and has since passed. I was 12 in 1992, and mom would watch this After the news at 11:30 on PBS. She used to let me stay up to watch it as long as I would go to school the next day. Still hysterical I love the show and it brings back lots of memories thanks for uploading
WOW Im an 80's baby too and found this on PBS late night at the same time. Both my parents still love it to this day. Sadly my mom is not doing so well atm. :(
Fabulous…just stay mentally strong…this decade is the toughest for many women, but remember it is just a number. I was born in the mid 60s, and when I see clothing at certain stores meant for women like me it makes me shiver…as long as we don’t try to look too young, even if it fits.
I started watching in 7th grade and it was also my dads favorite show. He has passed but i can still watch these episodes and think about old times. RIP Geraldo
What a cool way to honor (honour) your dad! I don't know where you live, so I don't know which spelling to use!Consider this, he may have met the cast by now!
@@elizabethsohler6516 you are so sweet. His all time favorite episode was the one where Mr. Granger got promoted. My dad used to imitate him and say no, no,no,,no...,no,no..no,no,no,no,no. Lol
Almost a half hour of me having side-splitting laughter from start to finish! 🤣 Such a brilliant and hysterically funny cast...not to mention the brilliant writing for this show! 🥰....I've laughed more in the first ten minutes of this show than I would for an entire, supposed comedy show that is made nowadays!
If you watch the many canteen meal scenes with Arthur Brough talking while eating, several of his fellow cast mates are struggling to keep a straight face. Makes the scenes all the more funny!
My favorite part, "Oh that does suit madam, oh that does suit madam..." 😂😂 The customer was in such a hurry, she didn't realized that Shirley gave her the blue cover to a hat box with the white bow on it to try on. The first and third hats suited her well. Mr Grainger's hypothesis and teeth comment was hilarious!
I discovered British comedy when I was a teenager in the 70’s. Benny Hill, Monty Python, Black Adder and Mr. Bean. I’ve been hooked every since. Discovered Are You Being Served and Keeping Up Appearances, later but they became two of my favorites not to mention Last of the Summer Wine. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 Good Stuff!
I even liked the spin off of this, "Are You Being Served Again," or, "Grace & Favour," to you Brits. Where more or less the same cast tackles life on a country manor B&B. They were just great fun together and they had to of had genuine love for one another at that point.
YOUNG Mr Grace jumping at every word that refers to a stripper or young lady....he's enjoying his golden years! Wish they were all still around to make "Are You Being Served? Senior Edition".
Another example of great writing and wonderful ensemble acting on this series. 13:57 Wendy and Mollie cant help but to laugh at Arthur's antics. Wendy puts her head down and Mollie tries not to smile. 22:36 & 23:03 Mollie's expression is priceless, she knows she's succeeded in killing the sale.
They could have done a better deal if they asked the raincoat guy to come back the next day in the afternoon and they would give him a discount at the cost of the normal price. Then they would have had the sale and still kept it off that day’s record.
why would you want them as friends? Lucas and Humphries maybe, but the rest of them are actually horrible people. (the characters of course, not the real life actors)
only Mr.. Rumboldt could confuse a woman with long blond hair 21 yrs. old & a 40 inch bust with a 40 year old with a 21 inch bust , lmfao!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
13:45 & 16:33 😂 . Miss Braums expressions, reminds me of actor Harvey Kormans keeping in character as best as he could after Tim Conways hilarious comedic deliveries. 🙂💗
Tim never acted on camera the way he did during rehearsal. That was what made it so hard for Harvey and cast to keep a straight face. They couldn't predict what he would do, though they knew he'd do something funny.
I love how Miss Brahms reacted when she heard Mrs. Slocombe’s fake voice. It looked like it was the first time she heard it. lol Oh, and I think young Mr. Grace is an adorable old man.
This show was around in the U.K. since the early 1970's and did not become known in the U.S. until around 1990 when some PBS stations began airing them and became a hit!
Always a pleasure to visit Grace Brothers and observe the hilarity and banter they exchanged. Although the all of cast have all passed on, it is always a joy to partake in great British humor, 40 plus years later. I enjoy watching this show ! Thanks for posting Kris :)
Every time I see that bandage on Mr Graingers head I think of the episode where the secretary’s father mistook him for Capt Peacock and fooling around with his daughter. Remember he took the cake and slammed it on his head so I’m figuring it’s a week or so after that and his head is still healing! Ahhh this show makes you fantasize! Lol
Mr. Grainger also got the sultanas in his ears and almonds up his nose when that Dad slammed the cake on his head. Todays bandage is from waking up Mrs. Grainger when she was having a good dream. She threw a bottle of bismuth at him. Basically Pepto Bis. Always a circus of never ending F*U*N!!!
Do you notice how Mr. Lucas sits on the ladies' end of the table, faced away from Mr. Grainger? Trevor Bannister always found Arthur Brough so funny that he kept breaking down. He had to be permanently sent to the other end of the table to keep in character
I don't know about the voice bit being spontaneous, I always thought it was scripted. Rightfully though, Wendy was having a lot of trouble with minimizing her equally funny reaction. It was too funny. Definitely one of AYBS best moments/scenes. Most memorable, indeed.
This sidkom is the most funny and well-done I have ever seen. The actors are so talented. I watched on all of the parts many years ago, and i did not miss one part. They are fantastic, and I thank them for giving me a lot of funny moments. 🎉 😂❤❤❤❤
1:01 - "When I tried to wake her up, she turned over and murmured something that sounded remarkably like 'get knotted.'" 6:00 - Doctor Who reference! 14:45 - "My memory's like a . . . like a . . . like a . . . " Boy, can I relate. 10:30 - Ladies, if a strange man touches you inappropriately, by all means, make a fuss!
I'm glad I found this show now because when this show was on l was a small child and played outside 😂 l laugh so much with the show I just love this show. To bad there is no show like this on now days
OnkelPeters this is my favorite episode. They cause this couple to almost divorce while Humpheries and Lucas stand by and watch.. that scene was priceless.
Gordon Peter's the husband portayed quite a few different characters in dad's army notably the lighthouse keeper in the episode put that light out. He also was the soldier that dropped off a few badly needed rifles in captain Mainwaring's office in the episode command decision.
@@anarchistatheist1917 It's a fun game to play: 'Spot the actor in Dad's Army who was also in Are You Being Served? (and other English comedies of the era)'.
"Mrs. Slocombe, we do not make personal calls in the firm's time- neither do we contravene the Trades Descriptions Act." Hilarious. Perfect acting, perfect timing ... all in this scene are simply brilliant.
I can watch every episodes like zillion times and still don't get bored. The subject matter is just perfect to watch when you want to forget something and enjoy your time without anything in the show reminding of your awful days. 10/10 perfect show.
agreed

Absolute genius in writing . The entire cast were gifted comedy healers .
"Healers?"
If 'Keeping up Appearances' was in the 70s, instead of the 90s; Mr. Humphreys would have made a perfect son for Mrs. Bucket. His Sheridan would have been spot on.
Oh yes! Never thought about it but that would have been lovely. I just loved Wilberforce Humphreys
Wow wee that would've been a HOOT 🤣
Yes! Plus we would finally be able to see the elusive Sheridan Bouquet with his Mummy getting his lunch ready for work and then showing up at Grace Brothers to make sure he eats it 😂😂😂
maybe he was...in script?
much too old.
50 years later it is still funny!
I know right

ÀYBS I is far above our comedy here in the US. . It has two gifts: the writing , and the chemistry between cast members. They were close in life too , esp. Mollie and Wendie , and Frank and Trevor .
Well, I guess I'll have to think about that. British television had a LOT going for it.
Why is it a competition? Both have merits. Only a weak-minded idiot would think comedy is a contest.
One of best comedy shows , great to cheer you up on bad day . We will never have shows like this anymore 🙂

Gotta say The Golden Girls was the best show ever, imo. But I do love this as well as Keeping Up Appearances, As Time Goes By and The Good Life!
“IT’S ALL OVER MR. GRAINGER!!!”
Lmao! I lost it at the delivery of that line!
I quote that line ROUTINELY in real life! 😂 One of my all-time favorites from this show!
They lost a great actor when Mr Grainger died.
But I never told him the sleeves would ride up with wear!
I have the whole series on DVD and I'm still getting on RUclips to watch 😂
Same. Sometimes it's just easier. Good to know we have the DVDs as back-up though!☺
Cant find the punch and judy episode online though. Some of biggest Lucas' laughs as far as I'm concerned
Reg Dixon, the final customer, did such a superb job in a small role. His face at the end is priceless.

Yeah he does look like Winston churchill.
Someone in the audience at 7:45 really enjoys this bit. The laughter is contagious too
Yes, that laughter makes the scene all the more hilarious...I was dying by the time Mr. Lucas said, "It's all over Mr. Grainger!"...LMAO🤣

This sidkom is the most funny and well-done I have ever seen. The actors are so talented. I watched on all of the parts many years ago, and i did not miss one part. They are fantastic, and I thank them for giving me a lot of funny moments. 🎉 😂❤❤❤❤
Mr Humphries is like Lance Corporal Jones from Dad's Army: both have got the loudest and longest claps of all for their characters and demonstrations
His entrances were over the top!
1:01 - "When I tried to wake her up, she turned over and murmured something that sounded remarkably like 'get knotted.'"
6:00 - Doctor Who reference!
14:45 - "My memory's like a . . . like a . . . like a . . . " Boy, can I relate.
10:30 - Ladies, if a strange man touches you inappropriately, by all means, make a fuss!
“Your needle is stuck in the grove.”

Humphreys does the perfect phone call, absolutely real :-)
- It’s the girl on the comptometer! It all adds up!
Marwellous pun :D
OnkelPeters this is my favorite episode. They cause this couple to almost divorce while Humpheries and Lucas stand by and watch.. that scene was priceless.
Those were good guest stars
Gordon Peter's the husband portayed quite a few different characters in dad's army notably the lighthouse keeper in the episode put that light out. He also was the soldier that dropped off a few badly needed rifles in captain Mainwaring's office in the episode command decision.
@@anarchistatheist1917 It's a fun game to play: 'Spot the actor in Dad's Army who was also in Are You Being Served? (and other English comedies of the era)'.
"Mrs. Slocombe, we do not make personal calls in the firm's time- neither do we contravene the Trades Descriptions Act." Hilarious. Perfect acting, perfect timing ... all in this scene are simply brilliant.
