BBC to revive "Are You Being Served?" with new remake!

The BBC are marking 60 years of their sitcoms in 2016 with a one-hour live episode of "Mrs. Brown's Boys", a series of special documentaries and screenings PLUS by reviving some of their classic comedies (with mostly new actors playing the original characters/roles)... including new versions of "The Good Life", "Porridge", "Up Pompeii", "Keeping Up Appearances", "Some Mothers Do Ave Em" and "Are You Being Served?" being produced!! All of these will be half hour one-off specials, however if they prove a success and popular with viewers they may be made into full series (as has happened with "Open All Hours" and its spin-off/revival "Still Open All Hours" in recent years).
