Set in the 1950s, this prequel to Keeping Up Appearances looks at the life, relationships, and aspirations of 18-year-old Hyacinth. Long before she becomes Mrs. Bucket (pronounced Bouquet), young Hyacinth is already dreaming of matching china and a bedroom in pastel shades. If only her family were more like the upper-class Cooper-Smiths in whose home Hyacinth works as a maid.

This is a decent prequel to "Keeping Up Appearances." & I'm looking at the cast; Mark Addy from "The Full Monty" played Daddy. It puts focus on the Bucket (pronounced "Bouquet") sisters, & as seen in "Keeping Up Appearances" dysfunction, i.e. unhappy marriages & relationships is prevalent in the family. But to me it's kinda bland as it takes place in the 50s/60s; if the show continued on past the pilot maybe I would appreciate the characters more. But I do enjoy the awkwardness & slapstick in Hyacinth which appears in both series.
