Keeping Up Appearances
Keeping Up Appearances: Hyacinth Bucket's Book of Etiquette for the Socially Less Fortunate | Roy Clark, Jonathan Rice
3 posts | 1 read | 3 to read
Hyacinth Bucket - pronounced Bouquet - star of the BBC1 comedy series, Keeping Up Appearances, imparts her personal views on protecting one's social standing. There are sections on etiquette in the home, entertaining, social obligations, how to strike up an acquaintance with members of the aristocracy, and improving the mind. They all give an insight into Hyacinth's philosophy of life, developed through years of candle-light suppers and charity sub-committee meetings.

A TV-character (but see tagged book), as I am trying to avoid using yet another Gormenghast character (Lord Groan). And if you've watched "Keeping Up Appearances" I think you'll agree that the long suffering Mr. Bucket really is the #KingOfHearts

The Bouquets (aka Buckets) lived in the #suburbs! One of my favourite comedies growing up (RIP Clive Swift) I couldn't resist finding a book about it for #timbittunes @Cinfhen @TheKidUpstairs
