British actress Sugden dead at 86
Agent Joan Reddin told the BBC Sugden's twin sons Robin and Simon Moore were at her bedside when she died Wednesday at Royal Surrey Hospital in Guildford.
Sugden played Mrs. Slocombe on "Are You Being Served?" from 1972 to 1985.
"She would never refuse any sort of comedy situation," David Croft, a writer for the show, told the BBC. "No matter how undignified it was, she would always go along with it. She was marvelously funny."
Sugden was married to fellow actor William Moore, who died nine years ago.

Ah! So sad to lose Mollie. I adored her work ~ she was a comedic genius. God rest her sweet talented soul.

She will be missed. I have a video of her 80th birthday and a mini bio on her that is wonderful. If you can find it it is worth seeing. She did a lot more than Are you Being Served? (I have the whole series)She was even in a short series with her husband that I wish I could get copies of. We've lost 3 greats from that show, 2 this year.
