Are You Being Served? Again! (TV Series) Under Arrest (1992) User Reviews

Wow, this is great

Whereas 'Are You Being Served?' was a sitcom, 'Grace and Favour' (as it is known here in the UK) was more of a serial, with plots continuing episode by episode.

It's a nice change actually, and this is another funny episode. Why don't more people know about this spin-off??

The Mr Humphries and Mavis scenes are the best bits, they're hilarious, but everyone else (perhaps not Miss Brahms too much yet) does get their moments.

I'm really enjoying this spin-off so far.

Hilarious.

If the first one was warm, sweet and funny, then this second one was just plain hilarious, a sign that Jeremy Lloyd and David Croft still had magic in store for their much loved characters. Without the confines of the store they were now free to get their characters into some real scrapes, first up, of course, Mrs Slocombe.

The dialogue is incredibly funny, the visuals even better, Mrs Slocombe was always my favourite character, I loved her caustic comments, but also found her so incredibly funny, physically, some of the stuff they had her doing, well, she was some sport! The images of her on that Horse and Carriage are just so funny.

The dynamic between Mr Humphreys and Mavis is also proving to be a real hit, their woodshed scenes were so funny.

A real triumph 10/10
