Synopsis
Are You Being Served? (1978), Season 6 is the BBC department-store sitcom you can watch online on iFILM — six episodes back on the shop floor at Grace Brothers.
It kicks off with a royal visit that Mrs Slocombe nearly ruins by knocking a flower pot out the window onto the Queen. From there the staff redecorate a grim cellar into their own social club, scramble to throw Mrs Slocombe a low-budget Greek wedding, sweat over redundancy threats when sales slump, and watch Mr Humphries take over the perfume counter as the Bliss Girl for a day.
The humour still runs on class jokes, slapstick and that famous double meaning rather than plot. Fans of the earlier runs get exactly the same rhythm here. Stream Are You Being Served? Season 6 online on iFILM.
