  Durante años, el rostro de Rafael Amaya ha estado asociado con poder, peligro y seducción. Como Aurelio Casillas, el protagonista de El Señor de los Cielos , fue el símbolo de una masculinidad feroz: el hombre que lo tenía todo y que no temía a nada. Pero detrás del personaje, hay un ser humano que aprendió —con golpes, risas y lágrimas— que la vida no siempre se conquista a balazos ni con glamour… sino con humildad, humor y una cerveza en la mano. La frase “Salí a buscar el amor de mi vida y regresé con un cartón de chelas” no es solo una broma viral. Es un reflejo del nuevo Rafael Amaya. Un hombre que, después de haberlo tenido todo y perder casi todo, ha decidido reírse de sí mismo, abrazar la imperfección y celebrar los pequeños placeres que antes pasaban desapercibidos. Hubo un tiempo en que Rafael vivía en modo Aurelio : siempre acelerado, rodeado de fama, luces y ruido. El éxito de la serie lo lanzó a la cima, pero también lo sumergió en una soledad silenciosa.

David Griffin played Emmet 🎹

By -

 

He was absolutely brilliant as Emmet in Keeping Up Appearances! Now 81 years old, he is currently enjoying retirement.
Although he has varied career, David Griffin will be mostly remembered for his role of Emmet. His character was the brother of Elizabeth Warden, and moves in with her following a messy divorce. This relocation places him next door to the series' central character, the socially ambitious Hyacinth Bucket.
Upon his arrival, a misunderstanding ensues when Hyacinth spots Emmet collecting milk from his sister’s doorstep while draped in a towel. Jumping to conclusions, Hyacinth believes the neighbourhood's morals are in decline and contemplates moving, much to her husband Richard's frustration. The confusion is cleared up when Hyacinth realises that Emmet is Elizabeth’s brother.
Emmet’s profession as a pianist and director of the local amateur operatic society catches Hyacinth’s interest. Determined to be noticed for her supposed singing talent, Hyacinth seizes every opportunity to serenade him. This relentless pursuit turns Emmet into a reluctant participant in her musical ambitions, leading to his constant fear of encountering Hyacinth and her impromptu performances. His attempts to evade her and her notorious "candlelight suppers" are a recurring comedic element in the series.
Emmet’s interactions with Hyacinth are characterised by his sharp wit and clear disdain for her, adding a layer of humour to the show. Despite Hyacinth's attempts to impress him, Emmet remains unimpressed and often expresses sympathy for Richard, wondering aloud, "How does he live with her?" This dynamic provides some of the series' most entertaining moments, showcasing Emmet's struggle to avoid Hyacinth’s overbearing nature.
Josephine Tewson, who played Elizabeth, noted in an interview for the BBC’s Comedy Connections series that Emmet’s introduction gave the show a significant boost. Unlike many characters, Emmet isn't easily intimidated by Hyacinth, which adds a fresh and engaging twist to the series' humour.
Emmet Hawksworth’s character, with his blend of fear and sharp-tongued humour, enriches Keeping Up Appearances with his entertaining attempts to dodge Hyacinth’s relentless advances and her misguided belief in her own musical talents.

  Una Stubbs obituary This article is more than 3 years old Sparkling actor whose long, eclectic career ranged from Shakespeare to Sherlock Bright and bubbly, tart and twinkly, Una Stubbs, who has died aged 84, was a revue regular and a Palladium pantomime principal boy who parlayed her natural song-and-dance talent into a later, diverse career on the classical stage. In earlier years she was best known for her roles alongside Cliff Richard in two high-spirited pop musical movies –  Summer Holiday  (1963) and  Wonderful Life  (1964) – and as Alf Garnett’s daughter, Rita Rawlins, married to a socialist layabout ( Anthony Booth , Cherie Blair’s father and so Tony’s father-in-law), in  Johnny Speight ’s classic TV series  Till Death Us Do Part  (1965‑75) and in episodes of its 1980s sequel,  In Sickness and in Health . Both of these incarnations are unimaginable today: a docile, amenable dolly bird hanging around Cliff and the Shadows, and a tol...
