English joke gets lost on the Twitterverse

There are a lot of things that the rest of the world don't get about England, and it seems the latest example is currently trending on Twitter.

Well, we say trending, it seems that Twitter isn't displaying tweets with the hashtag #MrsSlocombesPussy (which is trending as the actress who played Mrs Slocombe in Are You Being Served? has died) in its search results.

Don't worry, just another example of how British jokes can get lost when crossing the Atlantic.
