Keeping Up Appearances
Keeping Up Appearances is a British sitcom starring Patricia Routledge as Hyacinth Bucket (which she insists is pronounced “Bouquet”). The BBC series is a hilarious satire centering around Hyacinth’s striving to be of a higher social class than, perhaps, her upbringing truly afforded.
Judy Cornwell (Daisy) and Geoffrey Hughes (Onslow) as Hyacinth’s blatantly working class sister and brother-in-law regularly drop in for a visit, effortlessly tarnishing the sparkling image she works so hard to project.
Clive Swift as Hyacinth’s poor husband, Richard, dutifully puts up with his wife’s increasingly mad attempts at maintaining an upper class image.
Keeping Up Appearances originally ran on the BBC from 1990 to 1995. It has since become one of the best loved britcoms in the United States, having aired throughout the country on public television stations.
Keeping Up Appearances is available on DVD as individual series seasons, and in dvd box set form.
