The Sweet Smell of Success

A good start to the 9th series of the show, although the plot fades a bit as it goes through.

Even in these latter years though 'AYBS?' remained enjoyable, due largely to the likability of the cast, and their ability to sell perhaps not always great material, rather than anything that actually happened in the episode.

More economy cuts at Grace Brothers, hence why they've not replaced Mr Klein, and cut the lunchtime subsidy. Mrs Slocombe has taken to making her own perfume, it's to be sold..... under the counter.

You can see there has been a gap since this and the last series, the cast are looking a bit older.

There's no denying it has gotten a little stale, but it's still funny. Mrs Slocombe is the source of the laughs here, she delivers here lines beautifully, the cast clearly had fun.

Candy Davies, she was absolutely gorgeous here, as for her acting, not the best, but she wasn't here for that.

It's not bad, 6/10.
