"She's a lucky cow!" Brilliant because that's EXACTLY what Mrs. Slocombe would have said about Molly Sugden. What a lovely, lovely woman and so dearly missed. She and Patricia Routledge could easily have played conniving sisters, that would have been amazing.
I am an American. and PBS { Public Television } used to Air Are you being served on Friday nights. My friend and I loved that show! everyone was so fantastic in their roles. sadly they no longer run the British Comedies any more. I love the British Since of humor.😀👍
I can’t remember the last time the BBC made a really good sitcom. It seems to have lost its sense of humour. So we have to pretend that mediocre efforts like The Vicar of Dibley were in fact brilliant
I am so lucky to have met Mollie in Denver when she came for a PBS event. I also was lucky to meet John Inman at another PBS event. I had to stand in long lines both times but it was worth it!!
What a lovely person. She was modest in a very sincere way and quietly acknowledged her success without boasting about it. That is quite a feat in itself! I liked how she spoke about her career but balanced it with being just another mother. Unlike Mrs. Slocombe, Molly Sugden puts on no airs and graces and certainly no delusions of grandeur. That's probably why she remained funny until the end.
I love her! I watch AYBS every night from America on Britbox. I have watched every episode so many times.❤❤❤ Mrs. Slocumbe and Mr. Humphries make the show. However, every single actor on the show is amazing.
I so love Are you being served! Mollie seems like a sweet grandmotherly, delightful lady. Would like to have been able to meet some these actors, especially Arthur Brough. He made me laugh! Rest in Peace all and thank you.
I briefly worked with Dara Wells at NBC Radio Network in the mid-80's just after I graduated college and she was the sweetest, nicest person to me. Gave me a big compliment to the news editor. No one better to interview the adorable Molly Sugden than her.
What a charming lady! I've lately realized that in many cases, I would be disappointed to meet the actor, that it's their character that I'd like to meet. Meeting Mollie, however, would be doing both.
Great interview- never seen that before. On talking about AYBS, I'm kinda surprised they didn't mention her, errr, "cat." It could be that by 1995, the word had fully adopted the "other" meaning and would be deemed to risque!
I wish the BBC had funded more seasons of "Grace And Favor". Just watched it for the first time a few weeks ago and they could have developed that into such a wonderful second series had they done more seasons. The two that exist are amazing as they are but that world would have been so unique to explore with that cast
You're welcome. I quite enjoyed the interview when I first saw it and again, 27 years later, when I prepared it for uploading. I'm happy to know someone else is having the chance to see it.
I remember as a child in the mid 70s, this ariving on our screens, which fitted in well with the statas quo of various Camp Comedy shows. Later on, was it a really big hit in The USA?
Oh, my gosh! Thank you so much for posting this. I’ve only known about the show within the last couple of years and I was trying to find interviews on some of the actors to get to know them a bit. Of course, they’ve all passed away long ago, perhaps making it difficult to find anything. Thanks again!
I have loved her for so many years, and miss her. I watch lots of her shows. That's my boy, AYBS and Grace and Favor, My husband and I, and a few more but my mind went blank. She was the best.
Loved that show, A.Y.B. Served. Still to this date, great cast. Sadly, in the U.S. Never saw how some of the characters were written off. Mr. Lucas mainly, I think they stated how/ why Mr. Granger was gone but can not remember at this time, But nothing on Mr. Lucas or those that kept taken over Mr. Grangers position. 3 or 4 in total, was it ?
This is over 20 years after AYBS debuted. But you could have dyed her hair pink or blue and she could have gone straight back to being Mrs. Slocombe! And from the sound of it she wouldn't even have needed a script! 😂 delightful lady.
Thank you Molly you will never know the happiness and memories I feel and experience when I watch you in are you ring severed. Happy times from the past, my family my home and many more happier times to come. 🙏🏿❤🌹🌹R.I.P
"She's a lucky cow!" Brilliant because that's EXACTLY what Mrs. Slocombe would have said about Molly Sugden. What a lovely, lovely woman and so dearly missed. She and Patricia Routledge could easily have played conniving sisters, that would have been amazing.
That would have been amazing to see her and Patricia together!
couldn't agree more.
The casting of AYBS is the thing that made the show. And I am unanimous in that.
I am an American. and PBS { Public Television } used to Air
Are you being served on Friday nights. My friend and I loved that show! everyone was so fantastic in their roles. sadly they no longer run the British Comedies any more. I love the British Since of humor.😀👍
Check PBS listing for Saturday evenings. Our PBS affiliate in San Antonio plays 2 episodes of Keeping Up Appearances. Britcoms rule.

@@AurumEtAesThe BBC haven't made a good sitcom since the 1970s. Even the 1980s episodes of 'Are You Being Served?' weren't very good.
She was quite charismatic, funny, and pretty in real life.
A very Beautiful, funny, and Talented woman. R.I.P.
Indeed ❤
Also sweet, sillie, and funnie
And I am unanimous in that.
I am so lucky to have met Mollie in Denver when she came for a PBS event. I also was lucky to meet John Inman at another PBS event. I had to stand in long lines both times but it was worth it!!
Great show. Miss all of them.
Speaking for myself- and I am unanimous in this- we Yanks LUV her!

She was a fabulous actress ❤️
I wish I could have gone to this. God was she one funny lady. And exceptionably talented
I loved this show. It was like visiting old friends. I really felt I knew the characters.
I love her! I watch AYBS every night from America on Britbox. I have watched every episode so many times.❤❤❤ Mrs. Slocumbe and Mr. Humphries make the show. However, every single actor on the show is amazing.
Beautiful Mollie Sugden!
❤️❤️❤️
❤❤❤
I so love Are you being served! Mollie seems like a sweet grandmotherly, delightful lady. Would like to have been able to meet some these actors, especially Arthur Brough. He made me laugh! Rest in Peace all and thank you.
i grew up watching this show over and over on VHS in the late 90ès, its so weird to think its been 45 that hes been gone
I've never seen this before it's wonderful ❤ such a beautiful talented lady, ❤ thankyou for the memories Molly xxxx 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️❤️❤️🇦🇺
Mollie Sugden's willingness to do almost anything for a laugh made watching "Are You Being Served?" such a treat.
I briefly worked with Dara Wells at NBC Radio Network in the mid-80's just after I graduated college and she was the sweetest, nicest person to me. Gave me a big compliment to the news editor. No one better to interview the adorable Molly Sugden than her.
Such a lovely woman! I still watch Are You Being Served? every week. Rest well, Mollie, you’ve earned it.
What a charming lady! I've lately realized that in many cases, I would be disappointed to meet the actor, that it's their character that I'd like to meet. Meeting Mollie, however, would be doing both.
I was always impressed by Mollie doing so many physical stunts on the show, amazing!!!
Great interview- never seen that before. On talking about AYBS, I'm kinda surprised they didn't mention her, errr, "cat." It could be that by 1995, the word had fully adopted the "other" meaning and would be deemed to risque!

The late Molly Sugden was a phenomenal Actress
Great interview
Thank you!
She’s a treasure
Excellent - thank you so much for posting this!
You're welcome.
I quite enjoyed the interview when I first saw it and again, 27 years later, when I prepared it for uploading.
I'm happy to know someone else is having the chance to see it.
Dear Mollie, we love you still. ❤
I remember as a child in the mid 70s, this ariving on our screens, which fitted in well with the statas quo of various Camp Comedy shows. Later on, was it a really big hit in The USA?
Yes, indeed it was. I still watch it now, some 50 years later. I have grown up and grown older watching it.
I will watch anything if Mollie is in it!!!!
Oh, my gosh! Thank you so much for posting this. I’ve only known about the show within the last couple of years and I was trying to find interviews on some of the actors to get to know them a bit.

You're welcome and I appreciate the feedback. I thought it was worth sharing.
@@haveyouseenthis516 wonderful conversation
@@donpace6405 - I thought so too.
I love are you being served
I was at this interview years ago with a fellow AYBS friend! Such a great memory - thank you for posting 😊
You're welcome. Thanks for commenting.
My mum was Mollie sugden's bridesmaid.
Well, that's pretty cool.
Stop fibbing
Well, I got the "Little Britain" reference, even if no one else did....
Pretty good shout out to little Britain
Your mum must look a lot like David Walliams.
I have loved her for so many years, and miss her. I watch lots of her shows. That's my boy, AYBS and Grace and Favor, My husband and I, and a few more but my mind went blank. She was the best.
Wonderful!
She's so much like Hyacinth Bouquet out of her Mrs Slocumb drag!
Mollie was just the Best!
Wonderful! TY so much.
You're welcome. Thanks for letting me know you enjoyed it.
I thought Molly was a great lady and very very funny indeed 😄 Barney Glasgow 😊
That made me laugh and cry! ❤❤❤❤

A real honour to be interviewed by Wacko Jacko himself!

Delightful.
LOVE YOU MRS SLOCOMBE
Bring back the days when everything we see isn't American!
That was a great last question.
Purple Hair and letting her "Kitty" out to breathe! LOLS
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Amazing actress that inspired other young(er) comedians and shows! ... pussy
This is over 20 years after AYBS debuted. But you could have dyed her hair pink or blue and she could have gone straight back to being Mrs. Slocombe! And from the sound of it she wouldn't even have needed a script! 😂 delightful lady.
Reporter looks like Bethenny Frankel
