I am American and have been watching this show since the 1990s. I've always said to my friends that Patricia is probably the nicest lady in real life and this interview confirmed that. She is pure class. I miss that show.
Hyacinth is such a strong character that most of the attention is on her. But Clive plays the long suffering Richard to perfection. Clive is a wonderful actor.
I've always found Clive Swift to be the consummate foil to Patricia Rutledge 's absurd, but lovable and comical foibles in the comedy " Keeping up Appearances." Both Patricia and Clive are finely talented and versatile actors her as Hyacinth Bucket, and he as Richard Bucket, in the above mentioned television series.
I Love Patricia Routledge. She is one of those rare actresses who can do comedy, drama and has a beautiful voice. Her comedic timing is impeccable. This series is classic.
An absolute British classic! I wish they still made shows like this. Patricia Routledge and Clive Swift truly made this show as brilliant as it was, along with Geoffrey Hughes and the rest of the cast
It's one of those shows you think has had a tone of episodes and seasons where it hasn't really. like fawlty towers - 12 episodes and you watch the reruns again and again. Similar to The Vicar of Dibley, there were only about three regular seasons and a few Christmas specials.
Keeping Up Appearances is still going strong every night in Denmark. I'm 54 years old and absolutely love it. My daughter is 25 and think it's weird how much I love watching. It's hilarious and let's not forget Onslow 😂
I loved it when Hyacinth would polish the leaves near her door talking all the while to the neighbor or whoever, like telling Elizabeth about tea time..
I'm an American and I love 'Keeping Up Appearances!" It was such a cleverly written show, and the acting was superb. The poor put-upon British husband and his overbearing, "Over-proper" Royal aspirant, yet loveable wife, genius!
I can imagine her saying "Watch out for the butterfly, dear." He'd say "Isn't it in the air?" She'd say "They've been known to land on windshields and startle drivers. As they say, dear, "butterflies are free!"
@@maryk446 "There's an ant hill there, Richard. Be aware." Richard: "We're in the road. The ant hill is on the lawns!" Hyacinth: "Ants have been known to get into people's pants, dear. It's quite difficult to drive with ants in one's pants."
Patricia is so gracious, witty, & has wonderful pose. Clive seems genuinely sweet & they both have an emotional chemistry with each other & natural charm together. Love them both!
My mother died in 1997 and my last memories of her when she was healthy was how much she enjoyed keeping up appearances. It brings back lovely memories of her when I watch it😊
Keeping up Appearances brought me and my children (all boys!) together every week. It was so wonderful for them to have such clean comedy. They were brilliant.
We’ve stopped watching FOX Nation, since they fired Tucker Carlson. Now, we’ve started watching the “Bewitched” series. Last night my hubby said “oh why can’t there be humour like this anymore”. My only wish is that they’d kept all the 1960’s commercials. We’re starting “Keeping Up Appearances”, next. ❤️
@@Bella-gj6wc Glad to hear you’ve stopping watching Tuckkker KKKarlson because of his firing 😮, now you can get to deprogrammed the appalling disinformation both Fox and that white supremacist spread for years …Comedy is a wonderful way to relax as against the nightly dish of fear mongering and hatred Fox gives, I live in the Canary Islands little crime and anyone caught with a gun except a strictly regulated shotgun will spend many years in jail….No hate channels on TV except for cable but very strict libel laws so companies like Fox Newsmax OAN etc would be scared to spill their propaganda…
My brother and I used to watch this show with my mother. We were just kids but we used to laugh hysterically. To this day my mom and I quote this show and laugh. The humor is timeless!
Love Patricia Routledge she's a delightful person and an incredibly talented actress. And Clive swift what a thoroughly nice man. No one else could have been Richard Bucket
I wish I could have met the late Clive, but Patricia is still alive. How time goes by so fast. I feel so depressed knowing so much time has gone and so many great people have been lost....
I do too. This truly was an endearing show and wonderful time for me to be a young adult. I’m 42 now and really mourn my youth thru shows like this. RIP Clive 🕊️
When Patricia talks about the Christmas special for 93 being on the QE two and I had to smile. I remember that episode so clearly and I was 7 at the time. The fact that 30 years have gone by and I still remember it, shows how great this show and how wonderful the actors really were. I'm not sure my son will have the experience unfortunately.
I have very fond memories of the privilege of working on her show in the theatre I work at, when she was on tour talking about her long and amazing career..I looked after her in her dressing room to get her settled in, wired her up for sound, then operated the lighting desk for the show, at the end of the evening she was very obliging to have a pic with me, and sign a flyer, but what surprised me was when I walked up the centre aisle in the theatre, and she was at the back of the auditorium, as I approached her, she held out her hand and said in a very warm comforting voice, "Hello dear, what`s your name?". I was so made up, she then went to look at the organ, and was amazed, and engaged in conversation with all those woh came into contact with her.I had always admired her for her wonderful performances, and that night was certainly a great one for me, and the audience too, and yes Emmet used to worry about Hyacinth singing to her, but no fear, she really could sing, and has appeared on Broadway, and in London, in musical theatre..An absolutely lovely lady, with such a passion for theatre, a shame many only know her for playing Mrs Bucket, she has had many strings to her bow..
This show was very popular in the Netherlands. Me and my relatives loved it and we still make references to the show. Especially Onslow is a favorite of ours.
Onslow was played by the late great Geoffrey Hughes who often played comic characters such as. Eddie Yates in Coronation street Twiggy in the Royle Family and loveable rogue Vernon Scripps in Heartbeat.
As I watch this today, 5-15-23, it is with wistfulness. Clive Swift is now gone, and these two were such a treat in KUA. AI have all the episodes and the laugher I get is just as good each time. I particularly love the “Driving Mrs. Fortescu,” and “A River Picnic.”
I believe it was in "A River Picnic" that I first heard the word _riparian._ If I'm not mistaken, that was the only time I've _ever_ heard or come across that word; when I looked it up, I wasn't quite sure how to spell it, but found it eventually. "An afternoon of riparian delights," if I correctly remember Hyacinth's invitation. Who could possibly refuse?! 😂
So pleased to have found this and so lovely to see that Patricia and Clive appeared to have a genuine rapport. Sadly, Clive is now no longer with us. His son Joe who is a noted gardener and tv presenter in the UK looks and sounds exactly like him. I noted with interest when Clive is asked if he might write a book on gardening, little did he know at the time that his son would go on to forge a successful career in the field of horticulture.
Oh my Goodness! Thank you Sooo much for sharing this interviews. I grew up watching this, Are you being served and Mr.Bean. These are still my favorite shows of all time. It is such a shame that they don't make good Television shows like this anymore. The Chemistry is truly... Timeless!❤
Clive and Patricia bring me to tears when they are together in "Keeping Up Apperances" and I thank them for every tear that I wipe away from my cheek. Often over used but perfect for these two, "Simply Briliant"!
This was a favorite show! Patricia Routledge's delivery, in particular, along with those facial expressions, made me laugh out loud!! And Richard was the perfect foil! So grateful!!! (How surprising to me to hear the Patricia's accent sounds just like Hyancinth!!)
I love Keeping Up Appearances. I watch it on every Saturday night it comes on PBS on my local channel in King County Washington. Seeing this interview makes me wish I could see the stage play they were in together!
My neice was in love with this series as young as 3 years old, she just roared watching it. I hope I haven't missed any of the series, it is one of ny favourites of all time. Both these people have done other series with equal success. Love them both.
Thank you for putting this up. I remember watching the first broadcasts with my mother - we were snorting with laughter in a very un- ettiquttish way. Where did those days go - so well remembered even tho’ I am old myself now. Thank goodness for the freeview channels repeating KUA and other similar sitcoms - helps to keep me sane in my Belgian straightlaced exile. 8/23
Just found this. I have the full box set of the “Keeping up Appearances “ I am addicted and feel there is a lot of me in Mrs Bucket!!! So sad many of the cast have passed away 😢💕💕💕
Hi from Sweden, addicted to this too! Funny thing I didn't realize until just last year, that Hyacinth and her sisters Violet and Rose together make a flower bucket!😂 Agreed, sad that a lot of cast has past away. We can still enjoy their comedy though. I think they would like that!
I watch this show, whenever I can. Love it when I find it on UA-cam. Two of the most remarkable actors in a series. I just love you both, and the rest of the characters on your show! Its complete...its hysterical......Your writers are brilliant! Thanks for giving me some laughing moments! Hugs from Maine, USA, Bev
@@warrenreddaway5734 I am in absolute agreement with you😁 and the amazing thing is you can watch another different British program with a different English dialogue and they are all funny 😂
I just found this series on Netflix and watched almost all of the episodes in a couple days. Whew! It's so nice to see her being normal. Shows you what a great entertainer she really is and that she isn't naturally like Hyacinth Bucket after all!

This show has given my wife and I the most precious moments in laughter.. I drove to Binley Woods in Coventry with my wife and visited the location on Heather Road we were invited into Elizabeth and Emmet’s house for tea by the very kind home owners
This kind of reminded me when Carroll O'Connor (Archie Bunker) & Jean Stapleton (Edith Bunker) had a sit down.I'm Canadian but these two shows American & British were and are one of my favourite.Memory lives on,thank you!
Keeping up Appearances is one of the funniest shows 😂 I think it breaks the age barriers. I think that Richard's character is probably a challenge to perform...and I used to wonder how Mr Swift kept up so long.
I loved finding this! I love these two and it's so wonderful to find that I really like them as people. Imagine, working together even when not doing the TV show! They seem like really lovely people.
Always loved the series. What a beautifully conducted, respectful interview with two such talented and humble people. RIP Mr. Swift and love and best wishes to Ms. Routledge.

It was one of my late wife's favourite lines when we were brushing past each other and had a quick cuddle on the way!

This kind of reminded me when Carroll O'Connor (Archie Bunker) & Jean Stapleton (Edith Bunker) had a sit down.I'm Canadian but these two shows American & British were and are one of my favourite.Memory lives on,thank you!
Keeping up Appearances is one of the funniest shows 😂 I think it breaks the age barriers. I think that Richard's character is probably a challenge to perform...and I used to wonder how Mr Swift kept up so long.
I loved finding this! I love these two and it's so wonderful to find that I really like them as people. Imagine, working together even when not doing the TV show! They seem like really lovely people.
Hyacinth was a best actress indeed.
keeping up appearances is both a very funny & classy show. i love it so much i will have to purchase the entire series on dvd
I'm an American who has always loved this show.
Oh the QE2 episode was BRILLIANT! So fun seeing her dance with Onslo.
Been in the states for 50 years, this brought me back home! 😂
Always loved the series. What a beautifully conducted, respectful interview with two such talented and humble people. RIP Mr. Swift and love and best wishes to Ms. Routledge.
American here...loved the show and now very worried about pearls.
Compliments from the Kingdom of the Netherlands! 🇳🇱
