    Naturally the staff are unhappy when a striking sales girl lands in the middle of the shop floor selling scent. Joanna Lumley made several appearances in Are you being served? This was definitely her best. She caused quite a stir, her voice is used to great effect.

    It's a very funny episode all round, with lots of original humour, It features a painfully funny spat between Mr Grainger and Mrs Slocombe, with talk of removing underwear and putting perfume there. Inman's look to the camera during the advert is side splitting.

    The way the team take down Lumley is very funny indeed.

    It's another great episode from a superb first series. 9/10
