    • TRIVIA (3)

      ADD TRIVIA
      • Mr. Mash's "Ausfahrt" sign (which Captain Peacock says means "the way out") is a bit misleading. An ausfahrt is actually a highway exit, while an exit door would be an ausgang. Of course, phonetically, the latter is not as funny.

      • When Lucas and Humphries knock their mugs against each other, only Lucas's mug breaks properly. John Inman (Humphries) corrects this by obviously crushing his mug with his hand. This is necessary for the next joke, when Lucas puts the two ears of the broken mugs next to his head, imitating Rumbold.

      • The first two years of AYBS? had the Gents and Ladies Departments on the first floor. Now, as proved by the conversation between Young Mr. Grace and Mr. Rumbold, it's all on the third floor.

      • Mr Lucas: Shirley and I are going to the pictures. Miss Brahms: I haven't said yes yet! Mr Lucas: I wasn't going to ask you to answer that question until we came out.

      • Mrs. Slocombe: I haven't forgotten being thrown flat on my back by a landmine. And the German Air Force was responsible. Mr. Lucas: All the other times she was flat on her back the American Air Force was responsible.
