Finally figured out the show's subtle subtext: Hyacinth was cucking Richard big-time.

A Buttery Pastry posted:The whole point of the show is that she's not upper class. quite true. she's obviously lower-middle class and richard, in my estimation, was born into a working class family who climbed up to lower-middle class but he doesn't have the innate breeding hyacinth does. his reluctance to accept his elevated social standing offers an intriguing contrasting visage when compared to hyacinth's obvious denialism towards the financial falling-from-grace of the bucket family name. let me get my notes

I was on holiday in thailand once and they had this poo poo on tv over there with subtitles. 'You can have doctor who, but you have to show keeping up appearances as well'.

I'm p sure there's a poster with the name Hyacinth Bucket. Thought this was gonna be a callout thread. Just gonna say that Keeping Up Appearances was the crap that PBS always showed when i wanted to be watching Red Dwarf ( or Are You Being Served as middle tier). Getting to stay up til one am was a big deal in the early-mid nineties.

Dr Who is garbage trash for idiots, Sherlock is dumb show about a gay sperg where the boring episodes are literally 1.5 boring hours long. But Keeping Up Appearances and Father Ted were great.

I like that one where she's having some dignitary over for dinner and then her low rent sisters show up and she does all that slapstick stuff just to prevent the dignitary who is actually quite down to earth from seeing them and ends up making herself look dumb.

Holy poo poo, in my memory I'd conflated Ricky Gervais' fake sitcom from Extras with this and totally forgot it was an actual real thing. Martin Freeman should not have been able to recover from that as well as he has.

When 'Baroness' Thatcher died, there was a campaign to get "Ding Dong The Witch Is Dead" to no.1 in the charts in her memory. Missed ... drat! http://www.independent.co.uk/arts-e...ts-8572547.html

ok let me ask yall a question: in a world where you can watch pretty much any show ever created by pressing a few keys, why should people watch this? because, i gotta tell you, show sounds boring and obnoxious (almost as boring and obnoxious as me and etc.) bullet point it for me

- People always say her name like "bucket" and it pisses the lady off - People fall into hedges a lot - Onslow is easy to identify with for many of us - Slutty sister - hilarious senile dad

The description I gave above is literally the plot of every single episode, literally, there is not one exception. I mean it might be lunch instead of dinner and it might be at church instead of at her house but every single episode follows that exact format.
