				Actress Dame Patricia Routledge, known for playing Hyacinth Bucket in classic TV sitcom Keeping Up Appearances, has died at the age of 96.
 
 She also starred in Alan Bennett's TV monologues and played BBC One's amateur sleuth Hetty Wainthropp, while also enjoying an acclaimed stage career.
 
 Her agent told the PA news agency on Friday that she died "peacefully in her sleep this morning surrounded by love". :'(

				Loved her she was a great actress. We did a video advertising our hatinators at work with a Hyacinth Bucket overdub. One if the girls sat in her car with a massive one on and the dub was ‘Drive slowly past number 23, I want them to see my hat!’
