Are You Being Served? is the story of the staff of the Ladies' and Gentlemen's Wear departments in Grace Brothers department store. While customer's come and go, the staff fights each other and their incompetent superiors with laughs all around. The stories are hilarious and are generally clean, though a running gag involves one lady's constant frettings about her pussy (cat). So, this tape can be watched with younger ones, but some discretion should be exercised.
Nonetheless, this is a great Britcom, one of the classics. If you want to find out what all the excitement about Britcoms is, then buy this DVD!
This great DVD includes the following six(!) half-hour episodes:
Are You Being Served? - Pilot, 9/9/1972 - With the recent reorganization of Grace Brothers department store, the Gentlemen's Ready Wear department finds themselves sharing the floor with the Women's department, and no one is happy about it.
Dear Sexy Knickers - Series 1, episode 1, 3/21/1973 - When Mr. Lucas tries to send a sexy note to the delicious Miss Brahms, it is accidentally intercepted by Captain Peacock, who gives it to Mrs. Slocombe, and hilarity ensues.
Our Figures Are Slipping - Series 1, episode 2, 3/28/1973 - With sales down, Mr. Rumbold decides that the department needs to come up with some new ideas. But, will their savior be the unlikely Mr. Lucas?
Camping In - Series 1, episode 3, 4/4/1973 - With a transport strike on, there's no way for the staff to get home. It looks like they will be camping in at Grace Brothers, and nobody is happy with the arrangement.
His And Hers - Series 1, episode 4, 4/11/1973 - When a perfume stand appears in the middle of the department, no one is happy. But, when it becomes clear that free ties and stockings will be given away with every purchases (stealing commissions from the rest of the staff), it becomes clear that something must be done!

For old fans and newcomers alike, the DVD of Are You Being Served brings to life the characters that make this series hilarious. By going back to the older shows, you start right from the beginning again and laugh right to the end of the DVD

Time has not dulled this bit of English humor. It retains the freshness that I remember from the times that I watched it on NPR years ago.

This is one of the few British comedies that I truly love. The humor is absolutely hilarious. The way some of the lines are said can be taken the wrong way. But it was meant to be like that. I recommend anyone to watch this.
