Actor Dominic Monaghan took to Instagram to share a snap with Dame Patricia Routledge, 96, who he starred with in the old BBC series Hetty Wainthropp Investigates. Hetty Wainthropp Investigates was a British crime drama television series, starring Dame Patricia as the title character, Henrietta 'Hetty' Wainthropp. It aired for four series between 3 January 1996 and 4 September 1998 on BBC One. Dominic, 48, starred as her assistant and lodger Geoffrey Shawcross and it marked his acting debut. The two leading stars appeared to meet up in a restaurant as Dom penned in the caption of their selfie: '25 YEARS later! So wonderful to see Dame Patricia. 'We always shared a love of acting, of actors, of the natural world and all of the curiosities of life, it was fantastic to spend a couple of hours doing the same! 'She still tells fantastic stories, loves great food and wine, and as always is sharp as a tack, with fantastic skin and style. 'She taught me so much, and continues to do so, aging with a class and quality I hope to emulate. 'hettywainthroppinvestigates forever! #becurious.' Delighted fans then penned in the comments of the post: 'So happy you got to meet up with her again after all these years. Her storytelling is amazing.', 'The Hetty Wainthropp duo reunited!! That was such a lovely show. You both look very well!', 'Oh wow! I own the entire DVD collection of 'Hetty Wainthropp Investigations'. My husband and I loves that series. This absolutely made our day to see the two of you together again.', 'I'm binge-watching Hetty Wainthropp Investigates and I come across this lovely post. Life is good!', 'This is the best!! I loved you two in Hetty Wainthrop! You had such a good relationship on screen.' The two leading stars appeared to meet up in a restaurant as Dom penned in the caption of their selfie: '25 YEARS later! So wonderful to see Dame Patricia' Delighted fans then penned in the comments of the post: 'So happy you got to meet up with her again after all these years. Her storytelling is amazing' 'She looks amazing! How lovely.' Dame Patricia was annoyed when the show ended, as The Sun reports she said at the time: 'We were betrayed by the BBC. 'We finished series four of Hetty Wainthropp, we were told there was going to be series five. 'But no word ever came - how rude.'
