I am really enjoying the re-runs of this classic comedy, I did watch them the first time round, and it's wonderful to see a setting from a by-gone, some would say gentler age.

The protocols and hierarchies make for wonderful comedy, and it's a reminder of how cute Wendy Richard was as a young actress with her pretty little turned-up nose, he flawless skin and her fabulous legs.

How sad to think to think that every single member of the main cast is no longer with us.

I think Mike Berry is still around but the rest are long gone. I remember watching it years ago when my mother turned to me and asked why everyone laughed when Mrs Slocombe talked about her pussy. I had to use the most delicate of terms to explain the double- entendre.

jacdaw - Quitre possibly - as are some of the peripheral cast - Mr Grace's secretary and nurse are, I am pretty sure, but the original core cast are all sadly gone now.

Mike Berry played the role of Mr Spooner, taking over from Trevor Bannister who played Mr Lucas. He was in every episode from 1981 - 1985 when the series ended so I think he counts as a main character.

The last of the original cast to depart was Nicholas Smith, who played Mr Rumbold.
