I'm not sure to what degree this qualifies as "lesser known". It is certainly an older show, but still super funny. It's called "Are You Being Served" and lampoons all sorts of British stereotypes in a department store post-WWII. It's got few sets ,a small cast, but is witty and well-written. The jokes hold up very well and the actors are great. It sometimes pops up on PBS, otherwise, you'll have to find a DVD or alternate means.
