Just heard on the radio, the comedy actor best know for playing Mr Humphries in Are You Being Served has sadly died.

I had to google what he looked like, and upon seeing his face, I do remember him from "Are You Being Served".  A very sad loss to the acting world :\'(

R.I.P. Mr. Inman

It was, in those days, a brave move to cast such an openly-flamboyant character in a prime-time sitcom, but John carried if off wonderfully...

A sad loss... :(

Alas, poor Humphries...

I knew him, Mr. Lucas!

Whether 'tis sadder to miss his open-handedness concerning gay behavior, or to miss his quips and witticisms...
The world shall never know.
