What is so amazing about Patricia Routledge is that she was in her mid-sixties when she filmed such physical episodes. The claim is that only two scenes were stunt doubles. That’s remarkable. She is an international treasure and so is her supporting cast.

I've watched Keeping Up Appearances so many times I've practically memorized every line. It's so fun watching the screw-ups.

After many years of watching this program, finally seeing Hyacinth laugh and have fun was something my soul really needed. Richard, as well.

And to think most of these people have died in the meantime... 😢 Both Roses, Onslow, Richard, Elizabeth... RIP, you gave us so much joy! ❤

Aww I miss Liz. She was one of my favorite characters. Rest in peace, Josephine Tewson.

How on earth they have managed to shoot so many episodes is beyond me. The fun the cast has, hilarious,!!!! Never goes out of date. Loving it!!!

One of the most touching scenes I ever saw on British television was when he guest starred on Doctor Who. He played this lifelong-impoverished old man who suddenly found himself blessed with a decent nest egg to live out the remainder of his life with and the way he played that scene was just amazing. Normally, "winning big with sudden wealth" scenes are played as cheap, petty victories on screen. But Clive Swift delivered it with such earnest, heartfelt emotion, it made me weep. A true talent. RIP. :'(

I just loved this show. It is not shown in the Norfolk area for several years. 8:00 pm on Saturday night was the time that I had the show on and laughed like crazy for the whole 30 minutes. Hyacinth was just crazy with what she tried to say. Daisy, Rose, Elizabeth and Emmitt were just down right funny. Even Richard was just as funny, too. But Onslow, he’s just Onslow. And I just loved him. He’d crack me up every time he is on the show. RIP Richard and Onslow.

Unfortunately, I'm known as "Hyacinth" in my family. Even though I'm twenty years younger than lovely Patricia Routledge. It's the car driving that made me this way, and it's a complete copy of the scene: "Watch out for that lorry, John". "What lorry?" "The one parked over there." "But if it is parked over there, how could it ever harm us, Amy? Honestly, you're completely mad..."
