It is with a heavy heart and extreme sadness I have to report that beloved Mollie Sugden has died. The star of one of the best tv shows ever (and personal favorite) has passed away.
You fellow “Are You Being Served?” fans will remember her as the feisty Mrs. Slocombe. Mollie passed away yesterday (Wednesday) at the age of 86. Notable for many other shows, she will always be remembered for her brightly hued hair and references to her “pussy” Tiddles. The long running joke on the show cemented her in my heart along with her strength and wit. This comedy legend will be dearly missed. She joins Wendy Richard, Miss Shirley Brahms, and John Inman, Mr. Humphries, in the great big board room in the sky.
Mrs. Slocombe and her pussy which “wins a prize every time she shows it,” will forever be an icon which I hold in the highest regard.

“What about this fog? My pussy’s been wailing all night!”
RIP To a classic lady.
Thanks for the article about Mollie. She was one of my husbands favorites. He still watches Are You Being Served every chance he gets. She was a hoot!
Molly has always been a favorite at my house, together with Mr Humphries they were an unbeatable comic duo. Thanks for the laughs.
