Such a very convincing sweeper that Nora! Wonder if there was really anything to sweep? And so convincing was Cleggy at being so easily embarrassed! I believe in all the characters. LOL! Love this episode!
, I would love to see more shows turned around to be mostly the ladies I really get a kick out of those ladies and the man but the ladies need to be seen more by me
I love the Last of the Summer Wine but I swear the women in this show treat their men so bad. But the darn show is funny as hell & I never get tired of Watching these old repeats. Thanks
Big Jesse ! Tulip ! Pillock! Robin Hood ! Keeper of the Flame !!Too Too Funny!! Never Lost , only slightly confused 😂😂😂😂can’t give information ,,, too right,,,, 😂😂😂😂
All gone now except for Keith Clifford (Billy Hardcastle), Tom Owen (Tom Simmonite, Compo's son), Brian Murphy (Alvin), Ken Kitson (Policeman Cooper), Josephine Tewson (Miss Davenport), plus the relatively youngers Sarah Thomas (Glenda Wilkinson ) and Mike Grady (Barry Wilkinson).
9 times out of 10, Nora Batty has those hair rollers in her hair. What does Compo see in her anyway? There was a real cute redhead young lady in one of the shows.
Great show, shame ended and half members no longer with us, it was never as good after Bill Owen and Brian Wilde left but some good moments and Burt Kwuok and Russ abbot afterwards.
In "Are You Being Served," it was Young Mr. Lucas, always at the far end of the counter, near the men's fitting room. Mr. Lucas was always after Miss Braum, the young blond in Ladies' Underwear. The gay guy was Mr. Humphries. Mr. Humphries had platinum blond hair & always stood between Mr. Lucas & the Men's Wear Dept. Manager. The man who played Mr. Humphries was the most talented actor of the entire cast. He sure could dance. Wish there were more episodes showing him dancing. He danced beautifully. They're all gone now, unless the gal who played Shirley Braum is still alive. R.I.P. all...😳😞😥
The actors that portrayed Pearl, Howard, Marina, Barry and Glenda are the only ones left from the Original Series. I believe. Not 100% sure. Also not sure about the later additions to the cast
I would disagree. What do you consider the “original series?” Pearl, Howard, Marina, Barry and Glenda don’t come along until later. What I would the original series is the first 2 seasons consisting of the original trio of Compo, Cleggy, and Blamire
@@anonymousonyx9168 I know that the actor who played Blamire and Bill Owen did not get along(political differences I read), but those early shows were my favorites. The character of Howard drives me nuts a bit. Still-love this series-so much so that I bought the DVD set.
That it is. He was a guest star once before becoming a recurring character for the last few seasons. Surprised they didn't try to get a few scenes with him and Frank Thornton together again.
Without Bill Owen and Brian Wilde this programme feels as eerie as the tail end of the Carry on series when most of the regulars were missing. The canned laughter adds a desperate air but Sarah Thomas is fun
Can we not have this series updated, as it is so funny. But include the men getting their own back on the women. In those days men were the main workers who provided money for buying the houses. The women should be kinder. Pearl treats Howard like a servant, yet it was Howard who provided everything in the house.
Mrs Richards: "I paid for a room with a view!" Basil: (pointing to the lovely view) "That is Torquay, Madam." Mrs Richards: "It's not good enough!" Basil: "May I ask what you were expecting to see out of a Torquay hotel bedroom window? Sydney Opera House, perhaps? the Hanging Gardens of Babylon? Herds of wildebeest sweeping majestically past?..." Mrs Richards: "Don't be silly! I expect to be able to see the sea!" Basil: "You can see the sea, it's over there between the land and the sky." Mrs Richards: "I'm not satisfied. But I shall stay. But I expect a reduction." Basil: "Why?! Because Krakatoa's not erupting at the moment ?"
