Are You Being Served? is a British sitcom broadcast from 1972 to 1985 on BBC One. It was set in the ladies' and gentlemen's clothing departments of Grace Brothers, a large, fictional London department store. It was written mainly by Jeremy Lloyd and David Croft, with contributions by Michael Knowles and John Chapman. The idea for the show came from Lloyd's brief period in the early 1950s working at Simpsons of Piccadilly, a clothing store which traded for over 60 years until 1999.

The show was a talent contest to decide the best new young kitten huffer, or 'pussy fondler', in the United Kingdom, based on viewer voting and participation. The show used actual kittens at first, which led to heavy criticism, given the fact that the animals were often whipped by the professional pussywhipper Wilberforce Clayborne Humphries, just before the shootings. Starting its tenth season the show began using only artificial pussies that could be run using a simple mouse. After ten seasons the show was adopted into the feature film The Vagina Monologues.
