Q: I have been a longtime fan of two British comedies, "Keeping Up Appearances" and "Are You Being Served." I was wondering what years these two comedies were filmed and if all the main characters are still living.
Also, in "Keeping Up Appearances," who was the original Rose -- Shirley Stelfox or Mary Millar?

A: "Keeping Up Appearances" was in production from 1990 through 1995. Shirley Stelfox played Rose during the first season only. Mary Millar took over the role in 1991. Millar died of ovarian cancer in 1998.
"Are You Being Served," the comedy set in a London department store, ran from 1972 through 1985. The main cast members are still with us. Mollie Sugden (Mrs. Slocombe) is 83, John Inman (Mr. Humphries) is 70, Frank Thornton (Captain Peacock) is 84, Wendy Richard (Miss Brahms) is 52 and Nicholas Smith (Mr. Rumbold) is 69.
