This just goes to show what a talented woman Patricia is

Cast for the stage plkay (think I'll give it a miss):



Gareth Hale - Starred in Hale and Pace - Onslow

Rachel Bell - Starred in Grange Hill - Hyacinth

Steven Pinder - Starred in Brookside

Kim Hartman - Starred in Allo Allo

Debbie Arnold - Starred in Eastenders

David Janson - Starred in the original Keeping Up Appearances series as Michael the postman
 
I have a feeling Clarke based Hyacinth on Edie from Last of The Summer Wine but 10 itimes worse:) Makes it twice as funny that as well as having a gay son,her brother-in-law Bruce is a cross dresser:)
 
C'est bien!

I think he would, he just wouldn't want to go to one. Apparently Onslow is actually very intelligent (cf. his reading material), he just can't be bothered!
 
Me too. :D Apart from actress Sheridan Smith (Legally Blonde, 3 Pints of Lager...), I've heard of one Sheridan: Sheridan Morley, the theatre critic/author and son of actor Robert Morley, but that's a one-off. I think the name is apt because of gay/camp associations around both of the men mentioned.

Emmet is a mystery though.

There is a stage play touring at the moment with Hyacinth played by the lady from Dear John and Darling Buds of May (the Brownie leader, not Ma Larkin). She's said to be very good as Hyacinth - I hope to see it in a couple of weeks time.
 
First series was excellent, but Roy Clarke forgot to write any more jokes after that, meaning it was reduced to weak catchphrase comedy, and broader and broader comic playing by the cast. Shame, really.
