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.
Patricia Routledge was an exceptional actress. NOBODY could do physical comedy like her. Let alone vocal or expressionist comedy. She is one of a kind!!!
I never saw any of these comedies because I've lived in Italy for 58 years but l found them on you RU-vid.So very funny, God bless all those Who aren't with us anymore.Thank you so much for sharing the good British humour 👍💯🤗😉❤️🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
I just love to watch her , she is fabulous . What a Character she played and she played it so well. I wish they made good clean fun series like this these days . No murders, no swearing , just good old laughs..... MISS YOU ON OUR SCREENS “PATRICIA “ 🌹🌹🌹
i love seeing or even hearing her in other things too, like she was in one of the scrooge movies as well as reading one of the miss marple stories and i saw her in an episode of midsomer murders. i just love to see and hear her!
Years ago she also appeared in the fairground as Mrs Watson owner of Watson's field were the fairground came. From children's school programme called look and read. Remember seeing it in school way back in the 1980s.
This is one of my favourite comedies. Onslow was so funny. "Its a well known fact, and the fact remains, even when the fact remains, the fact remains - Oh no more crisps...PLEASE! 😂😂😂😂😂
yes very understated against the larger than life Patricia Routledge. Ive watched a couple of retrospective shows about KUA and i just got the feeling Clive Swift and Patricia Routledge were not that fond of each other but that may have been to do with her decision to quit the show thus ending it in the mid 90s
@@dlamiss Personally I think they must have been very fond of each other; it explains how in tune they were with each other. Every moment is pure perfection.
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. :'(
LMAO @ <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="814">13:34</a>... I love it when Judy Cornwell goes into hysterics, she has one of those really joyful looking laughs!
I just loved this show. It is not shown in the Norfolk area for several years. <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="480">8:00</a> 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..."
There’s a little bit of Hyacinth in all of us. I love my family dearly, but I shoo them away to avoid embarrassment or drama. Unfortunately, Hyacinth had all of the worst traits. She meant well! 😂
Iruparazzo Every time I see her I picture those sweet eyes in the movie Santa Clause: The movie. She played Mrs. Clause, with Dudley Moore and John Lithgow.
2 small bits of trivia: A young Patricia Routledge was in the movie To Sir, With Love. Judy Cornwall also made several movies, including one where she played an ingenue, the girlfriend of Fabian, the American singer/actor.
Hilarious! Patricia's reaction to the flying hat at <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="392">6:32</a> and Judy bursting into laughter at <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="570">9:30</a> are the best of the best!! And yes, Elizabeth DEFINITELY says "fucked it up".
"Better than your Hiacynth in bed!" Gets me every time! Especially when Geoffrey starts getting fresh! And I just realized that the pillow has no cover on it!
<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="350">5:50</a> - "I'll have to do that again because I fucked up and forgot the line." LOLOLOL Liz And Patricia flipping a bird @ <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="366">6:06</a> LOL
Keeping Up Appearances is notable for being the first BBC comedy to shoot their exterior scenes entirely on video (though One Foot In The Grave's were still on film).
I just love it love it. This show is part of my daily routine. PBS hasn't shown it during this Pandemic. I'm lost. I still check every day. Casting is great. The right faces for the right parts. Never take it off. She's WONDERFUL!!! Here in the USA. Thank you
Geoffrey and Judy have an amazing partnership. Must have drove the crew round the bend! <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="404">6:44</a> is one of my favourites - Geoffrey/Onslow "At a rough guess I'd say she'd been chib chab chibo bum jingd!" followed by Judy casually remarking "Oh you're useless" and her trademark infectious laugh.
