The hilarious escapades of Mrs. Bucket are back for one last glorious time.
We remember 90's sitcom
Keeping Up Appearances as perhaps one of the best shows of all time, detailing the day to day trivialities of Hyacinth Bucket, a middle-class lady constantly trying to better herself and her long-suffering husband, Richard.
Good news for fans of the show!

A prequel to the popular show,
Young Hyacinth, is set to appear on BBC One this summer, with Kerry Howard, sister to comedian Russell Howard, confirmed to play the starring role.
Set in the 1950's, it will show a younger Hyacinth desperately trying to get a step on the social ladder.
The original writer of
Keeping Up Appearances, Roy Clarke, has written the script, ensuring the magic of the original series will be present in the new version.
He told the
BBC, "Often, even during the elder Hyacinth's reign, I would wonder what this formidable mature lady would have been like as a young woman. Would the Hyacinth powers already be there? Well, to my delight, I've been given the chance to find out.
"I've been allowed to wander into her background and investigate, almost a piece of archaeology really, until there she was - Young Hyacinth in early blossom. I hope those who knew her in her prime will find as much pleasure in this re-creation of her as I have.
