    I love British TV and have seen quite of few programmes over the years. Some are running for a long time, you know!

    I enjoy the house hunting/house design programmes, and I also like most of the cooking shows. At the moment, it’s Anthony Worrall Thomson, who seems quite a nice chap... is it because he talks like someone I know.

    "As time goes by" is also one I like, good actors and I like the style. The following are really great!

    Monarch of the Glen
    Brideshead Revisited
    To the Manor born
    Inspector Morse
    Bergerac

    In the funnier category, I had a good laugh over these - some are quite old.

    ‘Allo ‘Allo
    The young ones
    Absolutely Fabulous (first 12 are the best!)
    Mr. Bean
    Rab C. Nesbitt (you won't understand that!)
    Vicar of Dibley
    Yes, Minister
    Faulty Towers
    Monty Python's Flying Circus
    Not the Nine O'Clock News
    Alas Smith & Jones
    Top Gear
    Grumpy old men
    Grumpy old women

    I’m sure I’ve forgot some, but these are classics, especially Faulty Towers and Monty Python's Flying Circus.

    I don't get BBC America but I did get into 'Dr. Who' on the Sci-Fi channel and caught up with all the story lines by renting the seasons from Netflix. I really can't wait to get 'Torchwood' and get my Capt. Jack fix.

    I really enjoy most of the BBC productions. My favorite sitcom is "The Vicar of Dibley," it is way too funny! I'm pretty sure I've seen all of the episodes at least 5 times. I also like a lot of the dramas they produce, like Pride and Prejudice.

    I recently got into Dragon's Den, That is a good show.

    Last Restaurant Standing. I loved the promos where they mentioned the host and how hard it is to understand WHAT he is saying!

    My wife loves "Are you being served ?" and "keeping up appearances"
    I usually watch with her and enjoy them.

    from Smokey the elder post
    I think Graham Norton's intro about using closed captioning to "translate" the British accent is funny. I love the Welsh accents in Torchwood.
    That statement about needing closed captions for the brit's is not true for me. I have a hearing problem and normally need closed captions for American TV. The woman's voice in particular I have trouble understanding. For some reason I do not need closed captions for British TV.
