Though best known for playing the notoriously snobbish Hyacinth Bucket in Keeping Up Appearances, the actress received her damehood for services to the theatre and charity.

    I am genuinely sad.

    As opposed to when Henry Kissinger died: I ordered fries with my burger that day.

    That’s Mrs Buckét to you!

    Man, she reminded me of my aunty so much, she even looked like her and her husband looked like Mr Bucket, it was weird. Such a damn good show, lost a legend today.

    Keeping Up Appearances played all the time on Danish TV, that show and 'Allo 'Allo! are probably the best exports from GB from that era.
    She will be missed.
