Re: Good British TV series and documentaries
Very interesting suggestions
For crime, the following are top notch
Morse (on you tube), its prequel Endeavour (another series about to start), Frost (David Jason - a brilliant actor)
For American comedy
Malcolm in the Middle

Neither if us, no matter how much red we consumed could think of the brit show where , the guy goes back in time to the war years and he fell for a pub owner. Has it been mentioned here or not. I found that a great show. Any one know the name?
Also for those with a different sense of humour ...The Kenny Everett Video Show ...was a bit out there.

Re: Good British TV series and documentaries
I recently watched some Episodes of “FROST’, the acting and counter play between him and his superior officer is a joy to watch. It is however a bit depressing, a bit too downbeat, the backdrop of a dreary middle England city , where it appears to rain incessantly, also adds to the misery. Hard to think it would be commissioned today.hairyharry wrote: ↑July 30, 2018, 7:57 amVery interesting suggestions

Re: Good British TV series and documentaries
Here's an interesting 10-part series coming up.
Murdertown
"With first-hand testimony from family members, police officers, witnesses and reporters, MURDERTOWN shines a light on some of Britain’s darkest murder locations, examining the crimes that rocked these communities and the impact they have had on the people living there."
https://www.crimeandinvestigation.co.uk ... sneak-peek
If we have any dodgy denizens from Tamworth, Hull, Brighton, Dundee, Huddersfield, Sunderland, Pontypridd, Dartford, Watford or Barnsley, this may help explain why they are the way they are.
