Are You Being Buried?
Or
He’s Free
John Inman, the buggering cheeky monkey from the BBC hit Are You Being Served?, has died of hepatitis A at the age of 71. Originally intended as a minor role, Inman camped Wilberforce Claybourne Humphries into a starring spot with the mincing, limp-wristed characterization, complete with the high-pitched catchphrase “I’m free.” Running for 13 seasons, the series at its peak attracted 20 million viewers a week and Inman was named comedy performer of the year in 1976.
