@scaredycatohmigod thats right she used to answer the phone `this is the brown cow speaking ` she was of course a northerner and the pub was as you said in london
I loved Hylda! My old mum was a carbon copy of her always gettting her worms mixed up and that. LOL. She was real gem and such a great actress. Bless you my darling and thanks for the laughs and the memories. RIP XXXX
how shallow we have become...... we pander after "none talents" like Jordan etc when years ago we idolised those with true talent...........they used to be older ( here, I think Hilda was in her 40s/50s ?) imagine that now ? Us , a nation, getting all entertained by those over 40? On the Buses - the lead guys were over 40. Now - we idolise youth & what are they? talentless airheads............bring back the 70s!
The worst thing is older actors always prove popular! Theres not many top rated shows or cult favorites that comprise of a young dumb and pretty cast. Even modern favs, like Vicar of Dibley. Those in charge must not able to put the dots together. Even in somelike like Lost or Desperate hosewives, where it is pretty youthful actors, the fans all love the older charecters (Rose and Karen) and Eastenders wouldn;t be the same without Peggy Dot or Pat!
I had forgotten how funny this wonderful lady was.... and what a joy to be able to laugh at something and not have to worry about whether it was "Politically Correct" - Oh how I long for the good old days!
I remember this when i was a nipper
