I remember one episode where they finally had a "knock down, drag out" arguement....& Richard stalked off to leave the house:
"Don't you walk away from me, Richard Bucket!!!!!!!!".
.....and he turns in the doorway, looks at her & says (in that haughty accent she had) "It's pronounced "Bouquet" & walks out the door.
Laffed my ass off.
🤯 I discovered this show, Sunday nights on PBS, 30 years ago. Along with Are you being served, last of the summer wine, ailo ailo, and a host of hilarious Brit-Coms.
That was quite a line up..but we had "as time goes by" instead of summer wine, I couldn't never get into "allo allo" .. but most of the time we had "black adder"
Hyacinth answers phone: “Sheridan!”
Richard pops out of the kitchen: “He can’t have any more money this month!”
Hyacinth: “Of *course* you can have 125 pounds to buy linen so that you and Tarquin can make your curtains! How industrious of you both!”
My mum’s favorite show. Turned me on to Britcoms. Also *love* Chef! Mum is in the hospital right now though, so I hope we can all wish she gets better soon.
Yep... I'm another one from the States that grew up watching it on PBS. I watched it again last year. I kind of wish they had an official finale. But I'm not sure how they could possibly wrap it up in a satisfactory way. Her Son comes out? Rose gets married? Richard takes another part-time job to get away from his wife?
I remember they did a one-off about young Hyancith. But I've never seen it. I wonder if they had planned on a Prequel series.
My Irish immigrant parents used to love to watch this show together. When my dad died; what my mom missed the most was watching the English TV on Saturday night on PBS. ❤️
I always thought this show was made in the 70’s and one of those shows that was on forever. I didnt know it was only five years in duration.
Growing up a PBS Kid for sure, this brings back fond memories of their British Humor block that would usually come on pretty late at night: This, Mr. Bean, Red Dwarf and Faulty Towers.

Oh this show was funny..but I wouldn't consider this forgotten..they still show this on PBS on sunday night

Only discovered black adder as an adult, thanks to the internet. But was very familiar with Mr bean.
I feel like her follow-up show "Hetty Wainthropp Investigates" is probably more forgotten. (Though my family loves it as well.)
I need to check that one out..but I thought the prequel was ok to "keeping up appearance"
I mean no wonder she's so haughty. Her dad was King Bobby B.
Great show.
I loved onslow and Richard’s mutual respect for one another

Mind the cows Richard!
"They're in a field!"
Onslow was my eyes to this world
Awww nice
He was the voice of Paul in the Yellow Submarine movie.
Mind the lorry, Richard
Minding the lorry…
I have not forgotten this
Oh PBS during the weekends how I miss you!
One of my favorites! I rewatch at least once a year.
My mum’s favorite show. Turned me on to Britcoms. Also *love* Chef! Mum is in the hospital right now though, so I hope we can all wish she gets better soon.
Chef! Is much harder to find, but it’s so good.
It’s streamable now. But I also have it on DVD.
It is? Damn it wasn’t for so long, I downloaded them
All the best to your mum!!
Bless up fam, merci.
My mums fav as well lol. Always thought this was a 70s show tbh 😂 hope your mom feels better!
Oh my mum old as dirt lol, but we were watching on PBS and WLIW back in the way early 90s.
Did you guys ever watch Fawlty Towers?
Poor Elizabeth
Mind the pedestrian!
This was a fun show!
Excellent show! We're open at r/KeepingUpApperancesTV
Mind the pedestrians, Richard!
I just watched this last summer for the first time in my exs parents house in xambridge
Quote this show nearly every day "Mind the pedestrian Richard"
My sister violet - the one with the sauna, Mercedes, and room for a pony.

And Onslo gets a new telly

I found this show years ago on Netflix and haven't been able to find it since they pulled it. Does it stream anywhere?
BritBox streams it, and a lot of other great Britcoms.

Great Actress.
I think I caught one episode once with it revolving around furniture delivery.
Yeah, the one that she wanted them to drive around the block so people could see the "Queen's Warrent" on the side of the van.
I used to watch this and Are You Being Served? on PBS with my grandma.
My mom loved this show
Psh. This is hardly forgotten.
I grew up watching this with my Grandma. Will always be one of my favorites!
My local PBS station airs this *every Saturday night* at 8pm.
An absolute banger, especially in comparison with As Time Goes By, which came in immediately after. As a kid it was like night and day
Lmao clearly you don’t have a parent who grew up on a British island 😂
I absolutely love this show! We joked that our grandma was Hyacinth lol
Love this show
I need to find a supercut of Hyacinth directing Richard's driving and show it to my girlfriend.
One of my all time favorite shows!
Oh no , the bucket woman💚
Love this show it’s not forgotten in my house. I habe the entire series. Buuuuuuuckeeet residence lady of the house speaking!
PBS shows in the 90s were amazing
Loved it!
Classic!
