Have you noticed something that has happened on the show that shouldn't have actually happened? Well we on the Are You Being Served? Fansite would like to know what that was. Fill it in below.

Series 1 Episode - Diamonds Are A Mans Best Friend - Mr Lucas has just spotted the customers missing diamond between Captain Peacock's legs and then delivers the line about 50% of sweet f**ny and Mr Humphries starts to laugh. He just manages to stop himself.
"No Sale"
In the canteen it seems like every time Grainger says something the cast has to laugh especially when Grainger said that his teeth keep getting caught in the custard.

Another part where Slocombe was calling Rumbold to distract him and Ms. Brahms had to laugh a few times.
"Top Hats and Tails"
Watch when Lucas grabs Ms. Brahms to dance. She is trying so hard to keep a straight face!

Watch Lucas after he has to apologize to Mrs Slocombe. He has to laugh.
"Is It Catching?"
Watch Mrs. Slocombe in the waterbed scene. She starts talking and then barely can keep herself from laughing.
"Dear Sexy Knickers"
There is a scene where Mr. Lucas is talking to Mr. Humphries near the till and you can see the camera's red light and part of the camera in the windows of the shelves behind them!
"German Week"
In the scene where Mr Humphries and Mr Lucas start to sing and smash the two beer glasses, only Mr Lucas' breaks. Mr Humphries descreetly breaks it with his hand so that Mr Lucas can complete the Mr Rumbold impression.
"Forward Mr. Grainger"
Mr. Humphries get a little carried away with the music in the beginning.
"His and Hers"
Cleaning Lady trips over Mrs. Slocombe's foot and glares at her when Rumbold comes to talk to the group. Mrs. Slocombe has a very hard time keeping a straight face! :)
"Diamonds Are a Man's Best Friend"
An article of clothing fell off the counter in one scene.
After Capt. Peacock makes phone call in Rumbold's Office, the phone is still wiggling when Mr. Lucas comes in.
"The Clock"
Mr. Mash almost drops a box moving it to the ladies' counter.
In one scene, the camera "skips" after Mrs. Slocombe messes up words.
"A Change Is as Good as a Rest"
In the scene where the staff are seated in the board room, when Mr Lucas is commenting on how Ms Slocombe is 'Big in the South', you can see the shadow of a boom mike floating across the table.
"Top Hat and Tails"
When Mr Harman brings in trhe robot, he announces that Mr Lucas is bringing the other robot in the lift, but you can see Mr Lucas standing behind Mr Harmen waiting for his cue.

Well look at this I am the first person to fill this part in. In November it is my birthday but for my birthday present I am going to see a show in London's West End in September. It aint just any show. It is a once in a life time show and the only time this show will be happening. It is the John Inman Tribute Show. I am extremely excited and I can't wait to go. I will fill you in on everything that happens in the show. The show also stars several former colleges of John and his friend Danny Le Rue.

So I shall tell you about it...soon

Rachie (Site Owner)
On Sunday 30th September 2007 me and my friend left the house in the morning to make the very short trip into Soho Central London. The reason being...we both had tickets to go and see the John Inman Tribute Show at 7:30pm at the Lyric Theatre in Shrewsbury Avenue.

After making a small stop to pick up film for the camera we headed off around London our first stop was to get lunch - we were very hungry - then off to Golders Green in the afternoon. I have always loved Golders Green and I intend to live there one day. The reason for going there this time instead of house hunting was to pay a visit to the cremetorium in Hoop Lane. I love the cremetorium there. It is extremely quiet and it was were the ceremony for Mr Inman's funeral was held so to us it felt important to go there and pay our respects by wondering around the garden's.
We spent just over two hours there - believe me you wouldn't realise.

We then returned to Soho and paid an extremely short visit to Oxford Street before heading off to China Town for dinner. At 7:00pm we left the resturant and wondered around for a quarter of a hour before moving to the Lyric Theatre.

We arrived and our jaws dropped. The foye was packed with people who were dressed up to the nine's. We looked at ourselves and felt out of place. Although we were not scruffy (we were smart/casual) we were not wearing suits. We did feel a tad daft but we decided that we shouldn't worry because we were all there for the same reason - to pay tribute.

We went through the doors where our tickets were ripped, we payed for programmes (it was actualy a donation for charity) and went down to the ground floor and waited in the bar for five minutes before entering the auditorium.

I shall now describe the stage because I didn't take a picture of it. Due to the fact that we were on the floor seats meant that we had perfect view of the stage. The Lyric Theatre normally plays host to the West End version of Cabaret but you wouldn't think this. The set for Cabaret had been pushed to the back of the stage and a large black curtain fell to the floor in front of it. A screen was hanging down in front of the curtain with a picture of Mr Inman on it stating "King Rat; John Inman 1993". Below on the stage stood a band. That was all of the set simple but effective.

Whilst we were waiting in our seats we watched others around us. We started to feel very strange. It appears that everyone seems to know each other. It was then I realised that in the ground floor seats there were no members of the public. I started to recognise several faces, members of his family (including that of Mr Lynch who I had met a few months previously) and his friends. It seems that me and my friend had made a mistake. All the members of the public were on the floors above us. At that point there was no point on dwelling on that the show had started.

Wendy Richard who was close friends with Mr Inman walked out onto the stage to welcome the audience and give a short talk. She spoke of Mr Inman in brief but happy terms before introducing Mr Johnny Cash. Mr Cash did an extremely funny segmant of stand up before Miss Richard came back on stage to introduce the next act.

He was a Tenor Opera singer (I can not remember his name I left the programme behind) and sang a sensational version of a song that Pavarotti had once sung before turning around and saluted the picture of Mr Inman behind him.

More to come...

Mr Spooner replaced Mr Lucas as Menswear Junior in Are You Being Served? He was a lot like Mr Lucas but always failed with the charming side. Fancied Miss Brahms and was always rude to his colleges especially to Mrs Slocombe which generally got a murmer of disaproval from the audience. In the end he became a pop star.
