Mr Lucas and Mr Grainger were a hard act to follow but I think Mr Spooner has some of the best one liners in the show overall..The writers really ramped it up when he came in..I mean his slagging of Mrs Sloakham was vicious at times..very funny stuff..great episode..Mr Humphries musta been racked with guilt after jumping Mr Brahms bones at the Ballet..haha! very funny end to the episode..lol..
I noticed they put the original cast up front at the end, like in the last ep (was it the last one?) They ended the show using the original cast. Do you think the writers knew the replacements sucked?
if I was having erotic dreams I would be having them about Trevor Bannister's Mr Lucas who was in the show up until series 7. He was so good looking and he had an adorable cheeky smile!
@LeinMarjo The difference is that "midget" is a made up name. Dwarfism (and there are many different types of dwarfism) is an actual condition. We actually prefer the term "Little People." Thank you for your interest.
@KTBEverlasting .....Hmm. Well I never heard of that before. Everytime I read up online or in books, its because he wanted to do theatre, which was in the way of filming aybs. I wouldve chosen aybs :(
@KTBEverlasting I no... Theyre like BFF's, I love them together. lololz. But I suppose Mike Berry was the ultimate choice after that... he's cool, bt he aint the same as Trev.
@KTBEverlasting lolz its just aybs.net, but they had debates about that whole thing, as well as awsum members and forum threads, a chatroom that actually works...its an awesome site.
@KTBEverlasting well the show was made to revolve around mr. lucas as a junior trying to fit in with the other staff, but mr. humphries and mrs. slocumbe kinda stole the show so he left because mr. lucas kept becoming more of a secondary and not a main character. But he said in an interview even after he left he was still good friends with them all, he said it during the tribute to mollie sugdens 80th birthday celebration.

Pork rind... that's to say pig skin, fried till it's crunchy and eaten as a snack or as nibbles with a beer. Disgusting stuff!

Funny how in G&F, Mrs Slocome has graduated to simply passing the tonic bottle over the gin. Looks like she got over her dislike of straight gin.
I realize AYBS wasn't canon.
I stared into the AYBS and the AYBS stared back, and I laughed.
