Everyone's Ill at Grace Brothers
Sleepin_Dragon28 August 2016
It's sick day at Grace Brothers, the common cold is rife and Mrs Slocombe has succumbed, much to the dismay of Miss Brahms who's had a flu jab. Mr Lucas is desperate to get the day off to get home to his bird, even with the help of Mr Mash his plans fail. Meanwhile poor Mr Grainger has his gastric trouble.

It's a great episode with some really funny moments, a drunken Mrs Slocombe, a foaming Mr Lucas, but the best bit has to be Mr Lucas's female customer played by the legendary comedy actress Pamela Cundell, it's a brilliant scene.

Rewatching this series I'm stunned at just how smart and attractive Wendy Richards was in these early years, she looked fantastic.

Full of fun 7/10

What an excellent episode.

Trevor Bannister in particular is on top form here, and though his actions probably wouldn't pass any PC tests today, it remains very funny.

It's interesting to see how Mr Humphries hadn't quite stolen the series by this point too.

Great fun
