‘Allo ‘Allo! comedy writer Jeremy Lloyd dies
Jeremy Lloyd, co-creator of BBC comedies ‘Allo ‘Allo! and Are You Being Served?, has died aged 84.
Lloyd died in hospital after being admitted for pneumonia, his agent said.
He worked with fellow comedy writer David Croft on the popular comedy series set in a department store, which ran from 1972-85.
I loved Are You Being Served?. Britcoms are the best. They still derive their humor from the situation and not by having the characters fling cruel and too-often disgusting insults at one another.
You made millions laugh without feeling dirty. Rest in peace.
