i forgot to mention this british sitcom the other day. it stars a woman named patricia routledge, a very funny actress, who plays a character named hyacinth bucket (pronounced “bouquet”), who is all about, well…keeping up appearances. she’s married, and she has three sisters, violet, rose and daisy. hyacinth is all about being perfectly proper, and she’s mortified by her lower-class sisters rose and daisy. hyacinth is always planning little “candlelit suppers,” but haven’t seen enough episodes to actually see one. it’s on at 8:30 on saturday nights, at least here in spfld, at least when PBS is actually working.
now i’m really really going back to bed.
