Hyacinth Bucket (pronounced "bouquet") ceaselessly looks for ways to push herself up the social ladder, though much to her dismay she's wedged on a rung just below her sister Violet - whose house has a swimming pool, sauna, and room for a pony, and just a wee bit above her working class sisters Daisy and Rose.

Hyacinth's flair for flawless entertaining frightens her neighbor Elizabeth, who is often invited to the Bucket home for coffee and is terrified to spill a drop. Elizabeth's divorced brother Emmet, who also lives next door to the Buckets, tries to avoid Hyacinth because she breaks into song in his presence in the hope he'll cast her in one of his "little theater" musical productions.
