“While you’re there, powder your nose- it’s shiny!”

We’ve reached the final season of AYBS!

Superfan Mr. Ben sent the podcast a message that he works out at the old BBC building where AYBS was shot in London!

Who originally sang the “New York, New York” song? Play along!

Mr. Brandon imitates Liza Minelli (of course he does).

There was almost a two year gap between Season 9 and Season 10 of AYBS.

Did the cast know that Season 10 would be their final year making the program?

Mrs. Slocombe has been out sick for two weeks- but no one know why.

His ex-husband’s wilted …flowers.

A new retirement scheme means Mr. S has to retire.

Is forced-retirement still a thing today?

…and it was just an ingrown toenail.

Mrs. Slocombe: the customer hunter.

The use of the word “spinster” on the show.

“It’s the Dolly Parton look!”.

Slocombe shows up as a cleaning lady with a Cockney accent.

Why was banging gun into the crack of the floor so profound?

Meet Ms. Featherston, formerly of Toiletries, who is replacing Mrs. Slocombe.

“The customer is always right” is NOT actually the original saying.

Then Slocombe is an Italian cook in the Canteen!

It’s Season 10 and we get Mr. Humphries in drag playing “Blanche”, wife of a Member of Parliament.

Blanche looks like Tootsie (who was very popular at the time).

We -almost- get a reference to the podcast’s name!

“A HANDBAG”?! We have no idea what this phrase is about. Help us, Unanimous.

Blanche’s husband is right down the middle- bisexual?

Featherston is finally put into her place… with a shiny nose.

During this taping, Wendy Richard had just start her multi-decade run as Pauline Fowler on East Enders.

Is Season 10 a victory lap for the show?

Introducing “The #Unanimous Episode”: after we cover the final episode of Season 10, Mr. Jeff and Brandon will create a Unanimous-focused show where we hear from YOU! Leave us a voicemail and tell us why you love AYBS. We want to hear from you!
