"Are you being served?"


My mom turned me on to that show (along with the Bucket woman). Just the other day I stumbled across this comp of Mrs. Slocombe "moggy" clips. Probably NSFW in this constipated age.

#3  Tergiversations? n. The act of abandoning something or someone, of changing sides; desertion; betrayal.
n. The act of evading any clear course of action or speech, of being deliberately ambiguous. Seems like a good word to describe Hillary and many other Donks. Hillary's Odyssey? Emphasis on "odd."

"Are you being served?"

Are You Being Served? is a British Sitcom that ran from 1972-1985. The show revolved around "Grace Brothers Department Store" and in particular the goings on within the "Gentlemen's Ready-To-Wear" and "Ladies' Separates and Underwear" Departments. A store reorganization forced these two departments to share floor space, and the conflicts that this created set the tone for most episodes. Are You Being Served? showcases a bygone period of time in which the class structure was still very much alive. There was a strict heirarchy within Grace Brothers. Everyone knew their "places" and remained in them, unless, of course, there was a chance for advancement and then it was every man and woman for themselves. A spin-off series of Are You Being Served? was released, called Grace and Favour. Although in the U.S, it was named Are You Being Served? Again!
