Are You Being Served? Again!

The Mongolians (2x5)

Data di messa in onda: Feb 01, 1993

When the latest guests, a group of monks from a silent order, have been seen off, Mr. Rumbold complains that his authority is being undermined, particularly by Captain Peacock. The others respond that it's because he uses his authority a bit too much over them. This makes him start acting more humbly - even a bit too humble in the others' eyes. The next moment, Mr. Moulterd comes in, announcing that the local pub challenges the gang to a game of darts. They agree to accept, but first, they are to take the flock of sheep to the farm next door, as the farmer has bought them. After this task has caused more trouble than it's worth, with the sheep running away, they all go into town, to the pub. There, they discover that said farmer is captain of the other dart team and also the father of Malcolm Heathcliff, Mr. Humphries' "rival" for Mavis. When the dart match has begun, a brawl starts between the teams, which leads to Mr. Heathcliff and Mr. Rumbold stepping outside to have it out. They are however interrupted by Mrs. Slocombe, who fights Mr. Heathcliff off with her handbag. In the ordeal, they find out that the sheep they sold are not going to be used only for the wool - but they are also being sent to the butcher's. Mrs. Slocombe can't accept those "cuddly" sheep being slaughtered and when they have all returned to the manor, she talks the others into rescuing them and returning the money, with Captain Peacock as leader of the "raid". In the dead of night, they rescue the sheep, with Mr. Humphries having to deal with Mr. Heathcliff's guard dog, who turns out not to be particularly fearsome after all. He manages to put the money in the letter box, but the others are less lucky with the sheep - who run off again. However, they return to the manor, along with several other sheep, which the gang hadn't been counting on.
