Keeping Up Appearances
After watching the Channel 5 Documentary a couple of weeks ago, I fished out DVD's and watched the entire Series:
It was well acted with great comedic performances
It was rather repetitive with it's gags
Other than 1991, it's Xmas Episodes aren't really Christmassy
I get a feeling that if it was done today, the characters of Sheridan and Bruce would probably be done differently.
Also it felt like Hyacinth was way too mean towards Richard and not in the funny long suffering portrayal it was originally intended (But that's my interpretation)
My favorite episodes were the Riverside Picnic with riparian entertainments and the one on The QE2.
