I love that show Keeping Up Appearances! Next to Are You Being Served? and
Chef! which I haven't seen Chef on PBS lately :-(
I did catch part of a movie with Patricia Rutledge playing something other
than Mrs Bucket, but I can't remember what it was, possibly some drama show.

P.S. Every time I hear Kathy Bates' name, I seem to instantly think of that
scene where she whacked that guy's legs - and also playing Adam Sandler's
mother in Waterboy.
