Dame Patricia Routledge, who died at the age of 96, was in the despicable hyacinth.
Insisting that it was “pronounced as a bouquet,” Hyacinth showed rough attitude to her long-appointed husband and charming neighbors to maintain their appearance, one of the most successful sitcoms in Britain in the 1990s.
Acting like a duchess while living in the suburbs, the Bucket’s terrible social climbing program is ultimately doomed – while she is fighting to maintain her dignity.
It was Dame Patricia's most famous role in her career, which led her to win drama awards on both sides of the Atlantic Ocean, becoming the star of Alan Bennett's famous TV monologue and becoming the BBC1 destructive crime Hetty Wainthropp.

Katherine Patricia Routledge was born on February 17, 1929 in Birkenhead.
Her father was Haberdasher, who later recalled the German bomb shelter in the basement of the shop during the war.
She studied English at the nearby University of Liverpool and planned to teach. Instead, she joined the Liverpool Theatre before Bristol Old Vick practiced.
Her successful stage career took her from provinces to the West End and eventually brought her to Broadway, and Leonard Bernstein chose her in 1976 on his 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.

Early small screen work included popular programs like Z Cars and Steptoe and Son.
Later, Britain's most respected playwright Alan Bennett wrote her a series of excellent talking television monologues.
Routledge overcomes her initial reluctance to execute the script and is an outstanding person of an unimportant woman and a woman of letters.
She begins playing a lonely middle-aged department store clerk and has a romantic relationship with a quirky podiatrist at Miss Bennett Fozzard.

The comic turn is a larger than life kitten on the Victoria Wood Show, leading to the creation of the hyacinth bucket.
Routledge recalls the script sent by writer Roy Clarke – who also made the Last Summer Wine and was open at all times.
She said: “I opened the script a little bit in the morning for a moment, and I read it directly, Hyacinth jumped off the page. I knew that woman, I knew that woman.”

It became the BBC's most exported program ever, meaning Routledge is considered Botswana's.
She was named Britain's favorite actress of all time for her work in sitcoms in 1996, but five years later, she felt it was time to make a change.
“I'm going to end it, of course, the BBC doesn't care much,” she said.
She thinks Roy Clarke is starting to reclaim ideas and recalls the suggestion of comedian Ronnie Barker.
“He always said to people, ‘Oh, are you not doing it anymore?’ She said, instead of someone saying, ‘Is that still there? ”

In the Hetty Wainthropp investigation, playing the homely but keen detective in Hetty Wainthropp has had ongoing success on TV, but she always calls the stage a “test.”
Long after she stopped appearing on screen regularly, Routledge performed theatre tours in the UK and abroad.
Whenever the interviewer asks inevitable questions, she asks them to spell out the retirement word because she explains, “This is not my word.”
She never got married or had children, but told the interviewer during her youth that there were two people with a married man.
She admitted: “I feel inward and keen feelings must be lost.”
“I think it's okay for me to convince myself for the time being, because his marriage is not a creature.”
Instead, she is committed to her craft and serves her with talent, discipline and dedication.

She felt harsh about the BBC's decision to reappear in 2016, but this time in the 1950s and featured a younger version of her character.
She questioned the company's policy of resurrecting old sitcoms, and she said: “Why do they do this, they have to despair.”
She has clashed with the BBC for a decision not to commission her documentary about writer Beatled Potter (Routledge is the patron of the Beattrix Potter Society), which eventually aired on Channel 4.
At 90, she continued to live quietly in Chichester, where she was busy raising funds for the cathedral roof.
In 2017, she became the commander of the Lady of the Order of the British Empire, but unlike Hyacinth – the honor is not mastered.
Dame Patricia always says she thanks the North’s roots and solid family for giving a good feel for her time and money.
Still, she admits that if there is extra cash coming up, she will definitely spend it on the “Champagne Case” – an appreciation for the better things in life she shares with her most famous character.
“I've never been a stage,” she said. “I'm not a stage now.
