Beware Greeks in limos.

Hyacinth is dismayed to receive an invite to Onslow's birthday bash, the pill is made less bitter however, when she learns that Rose's current Gentleman friend is a Greek man with some wealth.

Another very, very funny episode, it's another classic episode, what a strong series this one is proving to be. The formula just works so well, the characters seem to be getting more extreme.

I do love it when Hyacinth is taken down a few pegs, and here she's brought down to Earth with a thud, the scenes of Rose, and her Greek friend driving around the house are so funny. Once again Routledge is so unbelievably physically funny.

8/10.

Quotes
His wife: [talking to Hyacinth on the phone, trying to get out of going to have pre-luncheon cocktails] Of course we'd love to come... But the Vicar will be heavily engaged tomorrow. He's visiting a very old, sick parishioner... No, I don't think we could do that. I don't think we could bring her and leave her outside.
