DescriptionTireless social climber Hyacinth Bucket (pronounced "Bouquet," of course) puts her best foot forward in the second season of this wildly popular high-class comedy. This disc includes four holiday specials: A Holiday from Hyacinth, Sea Fever, Angel Gabriel Blue, and Historical Pageant, as well as cast bios, a "Funny Women" documentary featuring Patricia Routledge and 5 bonus comedy sketches starring Patricia Routledge . DVD Features:
Biographies
TV Special:Funny Women: Profile of Patricia Routledge
Amazon.comThis holiday-themed set begins with Hyacinth dressing poor Richard up as Father Christmas and ends with Hyacinth in the same outfit kissing Onslow under the mistletoe. How one gets from the first to last makes up "A Very Merry Hyacinth." Then it's time for "Sea Fever" aboard the QE2 in a double-episode that finds Hyacinth packing mounds of luggage and dressing "like a celebrity" only to miss the boat. When she and Richard finally catch up to the ship, they are astounded to see Onslow and Daisy aboard getting the royal treatment. One of the more hysterical episodes, it features Hyacinth and Richard in jogging outfits running through the ship and ends with Hyacinth and Onslow in an energetic jitterbug. In the remaining episodes Hyacinth decides to redo her kitchen, Daddy rents his bed out, and volunteers for the church play suffer a mysterious rash of illnesses when obliviously bossy Hyacinth takes over. --Kimberly Heinrichs

DescriptionTireless social climber Hyacinth Bucket (pronounced "Bouquet," of course) returns with more hilarious high-class hi-jinks. The set, 'Hyacinth in Full Bloom', includes 4 discs sold individually: 'My Way or the Hyacinth Way', 'Hints from Hyacinth', 'Home Is Where the Hyacinth Is', and the Holiday disc, 'Deck the Halls with Hyacinth'. Amazon.comFans of the relentless social climber and unapologetically prying neighbor get the full Hyacinth treatment in this boxed set of four DVDs with 20 episodes--including a double episode set aboard the QE2. Everyone is here: nervous coffee-spilling neighbor Elizabeth with her musician brother Emmet, who's tormented by Hyacinth's spontaneous tryouts; her ever-patient husband, Richard; and the unaccountably amorous Major. And no episode would be complete without the antics of her family, including the romance-addled Daisy and jobless husband Onslow, who favors the vest-without-a-shirt look. Packed into their grubby apartment is aging tart of a sister Daisy, who specializes in married men, and their befuddled elderly Daddy, who frequently escapes to elope or bicycle naked or both. Even the well-married sister Violet got a hysterical, cross-dressing husband along with the Mercedes. The marvelous Patricia Routledge pulls it all together with her amazing combination of matronly indignation and outrageous physical comedy. Extras include outtakes and Routledge's Kitty monologues. --Kimberly Heinrichs

DescriptionTireless social climber Hyacinth Bucket (pronounced "Bouquet," of course) puts her best foot forward in the premiere season of this wildly popular high-class comedy. Includes the complete first season of Keeping Up Appearances. Episodes are: The Name is Bouquet: B-U-C-K-E-T; Welcoming the Dishy Vicar; Visiting an Acquaintance's Stately Home; A Fate Worse Than Senility; Daisy and Her Toy Boy; and How to Manage a Family Christening... as well as outtakes and cast bios. Amazon.comHyacinth Bucket (pronounced "Bouquet," if you please) begins her career as nosey neighbor and aspiring social climber in these six premier episodes of the popular British comedy. "The Name is Bouquet: B-U-C-K-E-T," sets the tone for the series as Hyacinth pesters the postman for more mail, never-seen son Sheridan calls for money, barely seen Daddy gets in a drunken bicycle accident, and jumpy Elizabeth breaks a teacup. Hyacinth is set to entertain the new minister in "Welcoming the Dishy Vicar," but is interrupted when sister Daisy and her shirtless husband show up to announce that Daddy's run off with a gypsy. And Hyacinth indulges her yen for the well-bred in "Visiting an Acquaintance's Stately Home" when she drags husband Richard off the official tour only to mistake "her friend," the estate owner, for a gardener. There's nothing like seeing the white-gloved, hat-bedecked Hyacinth crouching in a ditch--or being run off the grounds! --Kimberly Heinrichs

DescriptionTireless social climber Hyacinth Bucket (pronounced "Bouquet," of course) returns for the final 3 seasons of this hilariously classy comedy of manners. This 4-disc set includes the complete third, fourth and fifth seasons (including 9 episodes never before released) as well as "The Memoirs of Hyacinth Bucket", outtakes and interviews with the cast. Amazon.comAmerican sitcoms usually have a bland, likable central character who has to cope with obnoxious acquaintances--who usually provide most of the actual comedy. The British smartly put the comic personalities front and center, and Keeping Up Appearances has one of the best: The petty, pretentious, tyrannical Hyacinth Bucket (played by the impressive Patricia Routledge), a dowdy middle-class social climber with a piercing voice and an unshakable faith in herself. Upon learning that her mailman has seven children, she declares disapprovingly, "Quite an achievement when you have to be up so early." Whether she's scheming to invite a minor local celebrity to a garden party or scowling at an enormous dog left in her driveway, Hyacinth terrorizes all around her, particularly her long-suffering husband Richard (Clive Swift), who takes a small delight in subverting her efforts from time to time; her trembling neighbors Elizabeth and Emmett (Josephine Tewson and David Griffin), who scarcely leave their house lest they be invited in to coffee; and her sexually frustrated lower-class sisters Daisy and Rose (Judy Cornwell and Mary Millar) and Daisy's layabout husband Onslow (Geoffrey Hughes), who longs to be left in peace to eat chips and watch the races. Though Americans aren't as class-conscious as the Brits, snobbery is universal, and Keeping Up Appearances has developed an appreciative cult following on this side of the Atlantic. The boxed set Hyacinth Springs Eternal contains the third, fourth, and fifth series; but Hyacinth lives in a bizarrely unchanging universe, so you can start with any episode and soon be caught up in her titanic struggle to be the envy of her peers. --Bret Fetzer

DescriptionTireless social climber Hyacinth Bucket (pronounced "Bouquet," of course) puts her best foot forward in the second season of this wildly popular high-class comedy. This disc includes 5 episodes from the second season of Keeping Up Appearances (A Strange Man, Driving Mrs. Fortescue, Candlelight Supper, Golfing with the Major, The Googley-Eyed Registrar), as well as outtakes and cast bios. Amazon.comHyacinth's prying eyes are rewarded in "A Strange Man" when she spies a male in a towel sneaking out Elizabeth's door for the paper. She wallows in the possibilities of sinking property values and "moral turpitude" before finding out he's merely her neighbor's brother come to live with her. In an attempt to increase her social standing, Hyacinth convinces her beleaguered husband to ferry an ill-tempered wealthy widow about in "Driving Mrs. Fortescue." Mrs. Bucket's conniving predictably goes awry when the dowager enjoys a quaff with Hyacinth's lowbrow relatives while Hyacinth ends up in the back of a flat-bed truck. In "The Googley-Eyed Registrar," Hyacinth tries to intercept her runaway father's elopement at the registar's office, only to be mistaken for the bride. One of Hyacinth's famous-in-her-own mind Candlelight Suppers and a golfing outing with the ardent Major round out this set. --Kimberly Heinrichs

DescriptionTireless social climber Hyacinth Bucket (pronounced "Bouquet," of course) puts her best foot forward in the second season of this wildly popular high-class comedy. This disc includes 5 episodes from season 2 of Keeping Up Appearances (Cocktails with a Greek Shipping Millionaire, The Unfortunate Prospect of Early Retirement, Play-Things for Daddy, Three Piece Suite, Picnic for Daddy), as well as outtakes and cast bios. Amazon.comWhen Hyacinth finds out that she and Richard will be transported to a party in Rose's new swain's limo, she quickly assembles a cocktail party to mutually impress him and her neighbors in "Cocktails with a Greek Shipping Millionaire." But the limo's in the shop and the gentleman friend shows up in his hearse instead. Richard mulls over the frightening possibilities of whole days spent with Hyacinth in "The Unfortunate Prospect of Early Retirement," and poor Daddy runs up a humungous tab in a toy store in "Playthings for Daddy." But nothing could disappoint Hyacinth more than when the truck with the fancy logo set to deliver her new "Three Piece Suite" breaks down and it's humiliatingly delivered by a helpful Onslow in his ramshackle truck instead. A "Picnic for Daddy" that ends up as a high speed car chase finishes the collection. --Kimberly Heinrichs

DescriptionTireless social climber Hyacinth Bucket (pronounced "Bouquet," of course) takes her final bow in the last episodes of this hilariously classy comedy of manners. This disc includes the final four never-before-released episodes of season five, as well as the special "The Memoirs of Hyacinth Bucket." Amazon.comAdored British sitcom Keeping Up Appearances concluded after its fifth series, the second half of which is compiled on Hats Off to Hyacinth. Fans of the unflappably snobbish Hyacinth Bucket (Patricia Routledge) will delight as she schemes to be cast a production of the musical The Boyfriend and attempts to launch a new career as a professional hostess. Along for the ride are her good-natured husband Richard (Clive Swift), her trembling neighbors Elizabeth and Emmett (Josephine Tewson and David Griffin), her tawdry sisters Daisy and Rose (Judy Cornwell and Mary Millar), and Daisy's oafish yet sensible husband Onslow (Geoffrey Hughes). Hyacinth terrorizes her world, armed with nothing more than a voice that could pierce armor and an unshakable faith in her own opinion. The series achieves its comic peak, however, when Richard actually dares to raise his voice to Hyacinth, a moment that will fill fans with shocked giddiness. --Bret Fetzer

DescriptionTireless social climber Hyacinth Bucket (pronounced "Bouquet," of course) returns in the third season of this hilariously classy comedy of manners. This disc includes the complete third season of Keeping Up Appearances, including two never-before-released episodes. Episodes: Half a Camel; How to Retire Early if You're Not Careful; A Portrait of the Artist as a Hen-Pecked Man; The French Lieutenant's Daughters; How to Go on Holiday Without Really Trying; What to Wear When Yachting; and Violet's Country Cottage. Amazon.comSatirical British sitcom Keeping Up Appearances centers around the imposing person of Hyacinth Bucket (Patricia Routledge), a snobbish, self-deluded, and tyrannical English matron who pronounces her last name "bouquet." In the third series, Hyacinth's long-suffering husband Richard (Clive Swift) submits unwillingly to early retirement, earning the sympathy of their terrorized neighbors Elizabeth (Josephine Tewson) and Emmett (David Griffin). The show ping-pongs back and forth between Hyacinth's irrepressible social-climbing efforts (she connives to get an invitation to the Royal Garden Party, among other things) and the floundering lives of her lower-class sisters Rose (Mary Millar) and Daisy (Judy Cornwell) and Daisy's slovenly husband Onslow (Geoffrey Hughes), who wallow in laziness and sexual frustration. The show's strength comes from the balance between Routledge--a comic powerhouse, able to blithely steamroll over everyone else in the excellent cast--and the subtle underplaying of Swift. --Bret Fetzer
