The Erotic Dreams of Mrs Slocombe

I found this episode to be, possibly, the funniest episode of AYBS, and possibly, the funniest episode of any sitcom of any country. It was stunningly hilarious. The writing was insanely superb, and the acting was truly golden, to say the very least. I have never laughed so much at any other episode of AYBS, or any other sitcom, period. I wish that I could give it many more stars than ten. So dang funny. Absolutely hilarious.

Mrs Slocombe is hitting the bottle, the reason, Mr Humphries and her erotic dreams.

This one is almost surreal, it's as far away from the early episodes of the show as possible, but it does work. It plays on the talents of Inman and Sugden once again, there's an ever greater reliance on the pair. Mollie is incredibly funny here, they made her do all sorts, asides from having that remarkable blue hair, she now falls in love with Mr Humphries, which is the more shocking I ask you.

Lots of double entendres as you would expect, the finest coming as the team sit down to watch the ballet, and Mrs Slocombe is convinced she knows what an entre chat is.

It doesn't perhaps have the shine of the earlier episodes, but it is funny, Mollie makes it so, her bizarre behaviour, gin drinking and rude behaviour give it just enough to make it funny, 7/10.
