"Dame Patricia made millions laugh and left a legacy that will always be remembered with gratitude and admiration."

BBC Director of Comedy, Jon Petrie, pays tribute to Dame Patricia Routledge

bbc.in/4mIrpnr
A tribute to Dame Patricia Routledge from Jon Petrie, Director of BBC Comedy reads: We are so sad to hear of the passing of Dame Patricia Routledge. She was an actor of remarkable range, but her portrayal of Hyacinth Bucket in Keeping Up Appearances has to be one of the most iconic performances in British comedy. She took a character on the page and gave her such truth, precision and warmth that Hyacinth became part of the national conversation; instantly recognisable, endlessly quotable, and loved around the world. Whatever she did, she brought impeccable craft, and in doing so inspired generations of writers, performers and audiences. Dame Patricia made millions laugh and left a legacy that will always be remembered with gratitude and admiration." It's accompanied by a still of her in character as Hyacinth Bucket, wearing a blue polka dot dress and pearls, smiling for the camera.
