It snows in the Grace Bros lift.

Yorkshire terriers mushing around London. (“Mushing” comes from a French interpretation of Indigenous Canadian/ first peoples’ use of dogs pulling a sled… but not Yorkshire terriers.)

Miss Belfridge’s Marilyn Monroe overlap and the Page 3 girls.

Americans and our confusion over tea culture in the UK.

Mrs. Slocombe’s emergency with her elastic.

A lost Paraguayian monkey… at Grace Bros?

AND a Japanese takeover bid!

A two-finger-salute and a blown raspberry to the monkey.

Humphries’ racist joke agains the Japanese businessman- ugh.

The staff goes to #10 Downing Street to air their grievances to Prime Minster Thatcher.

Slocombe speaks with Ronald Reagan! (I’ve seen all ya films…)

Why are politicians’ names never actually verbalized on AYBS?

And Mr. Humphries had been chatting with PM Thatcher the whole time.

Mrs. Humphries has had to take up laundry washing in the local canal for some extra income- instead of offering help with legislation, Thatcher offers soap advise.

“Don’t touch SDP” joke because “Social Democrat Party” was Thatcher’s political rivals.

A quick history on 1980s’ Thatcher UK.

Rumbold knew their names, but never used them! *sob*

That “standard English welcome” joke that the audience didn’t get.

And then the monkey insults the Japanese buyer and everything’s ok!

And WHY the monkey? We’re not sure…

Season 9 seems to have the staff working together against the world, instead of fighting internally among themselves like in previous seasons.
