RIP Mollie Sugden

RIP to a fine comedic actress that brought many smiles to my face. There was nothing quite like watching Mrs. Slocombe talk about her cat.

Apologies ... but the three-bedroom apartment in the sky still has a vacancy.

 

Sorry about Molly but please take this to Celebrity death running thread ok?

I have no idea who these people are who are getting RIPs. They're either E-listers or I'm even more insulated than I thought. Oh well. RIP, lady of whom I've never heard.

 

What IJAG said. Never heard of this woman.

 

Apparently I overestimated the reach of PBS. There was a time when it seemed every PBS station in the country would show Are You Being Served? on a nightly basis. Anyway, as I sneak away to the corner, here are some of her classic moments.

 

IJAG and spnited agreeing on the prominence of someone...makes the thread for what's-her-name all worth it.

 

First Fred Travalena, then Karl Malden and now Mollie Sugden? This keeps getting worse.

 

Who's going to take care of Mrs. Slocombe's pussy now?

 

What the what?

This belongs on the running list of d-List celebrities.

It doesn't mean anyone was watching.

 

The mortician?

 

Let's not forget, D., that we lost Wendy Richard (Miss Brahms) in February, too. I guess I am a die-hard "Are You Being Served?" fan and both ladies will be appreciated and missed, as will John Inman, who passed away in 2007.

RIP, Mollie.
