The story
Its main characters serve in the ladies' and gentlemen's departments, alongside their senior staff, maintenance workers and the store's owner.
Plots generally focused on the relationships among staff, their attempts to improve sales (being chronically underpaid), and the effects of local events that impacted the store's running.
A key humorous aspect of the series was its parody of the British class system, which permeated the interactions among management, sales personnel and the maintenance staff.
