Keeping up Appearances

I have been watching re-runs of 'Keeping up Appearances' on BBC Entertainment and I think it is absolutely hillarious...actually BBC Entertainment is quite an exciting channel - lots of old and new BBC programming and with minimal advertising (how I love that!)
The word 'incorrigible' truly describes Patricia Routledge playing Hyacinth Bucket (or Bouquet)... her neighbour who is perpetually coerced into having teaaaa, one almost feels as jittery as her everytime she is called out and doesnt blame her for being oh so jittery.
And of course the poorest soul amongst them is Richarddddd (the oh so sweet husband!).
I loved the episode where Hyacinth turned a simple country picnic into riparian entertainment...and another gem is where a Bobby has the misfortune of visiting her house to inform her of about her 'Daddy' and Richard is sent on 'business' to get Daddy out of jail.
