I don't even generally like sitcoms as a genre but this show was good. English as all get-out, but good.

It's Very English but I found it funny.

AYBS is just farcical in comparison and it's amazing.

My wife has the boxset for all 3.


There's also a weird Young Hyacinth series if you have BBC Britbox and the tone and characterization is So loving Weird (like closer in tone to Downton Abbey meets As Time Goes By).

I consider it non-canonical to the Hyacinarium (Keepingverse).

I liked it when he died and then the widow poisoned the woman who killed him. Or was that another TV series?

e: Yeah nah it was One Foot in the Grave.

The actress who played the "sexy" sister in Keeping Up Appearances played the prudish "Edna" on Emmerdale. That's my trivia for this thread.

it’s about an extremely pretentious british woman who is constantly scheming ways to move up in society, but always has her plans blow up in her face in some humorous way. All of the supporting characters are very likable and (mostly)hate her, which she is oblivious to.

it’s a real good show, you should watch it burt

It's not very good tho. Every joke is semaphored like crazy, including the running gags, so that the old people watching know when to laugh.

every episode does the same jokes but it still works because the actress is so good at it

it's pantomime style comedy. compare things like 'allo 'allo where nearly all the characters are caricatures with a catchphrase or two.

"Bucket" doesn't rhyme with "bucket" though?
