[seagullsovergrimsby]

That is exactly the look I used to get from a senior colleague when working in the clerical office at the telephone exchange after using the wrong coloured pen while making up the duty rosters for the night shift.

 

[HastingsSeagull]

30 Rock or Modern Family

 

[kevo]

This Life.

 

[The Antikythera Mechanism]

The Prisoner (the original)

 

[Prince Monolulu]

This Life.

Great 2nd alongside Cold Feet to Auf Wiedersehen Pet

 

[Tarpon]

For American drama the top 3 are

The Soprano's and The Wire 1 & 2, either way round with Breaking Bad a close 3rd.

Personally it's The Soprano's, all day long.

Any of these 3 for me too. The order varies depending on which I have watched last (they stand up to repeated viewing unlike many).

Doctor Who already mentioned so Sapphire and Steel. This is presuming we're sticking to Western releases.

 

[Norman Baker suck my lozenge]

Boardwalk empire is very good if like a bit 1920s gangster ,don't whatever you do watch tipping the velvet,promised to be a feast of rug munching and gusset typing but turned out to be little more than a rainy lunchtime ****!

 

[Goldstone1976]

I would agree with many already cited, so to be different, I'll vote for Red Dwarf or Brideshead Revisited.

 

[lawros left foot]

Fawlty Towers for comedy, The Wire for drama

 

[HAILSHAM SEAGULL]

Got to be this [yt]Je2fGzKiqRM[/yt]

 

[Durlston]

Max & Paddy's Road To Nowhere starring Peter Kay & Paddy McGuinness.

Comedy gold in their camper van. All six episodes are brilliant but the ones where they're in prison with Raymond the B*stard and the last one featuring Billy, who's a psychopath and holds up the Little Chef at gunpoint, are hilarious. "Get that fooking cooker on!"

 

[big nuts]

The Wire.

 

[SweatyMexican]

Game Of Thrones. Hand's down. If you watch all the way through season 1,2 and 3, you will understand why.

 

[brakespear]

Got to be this [yt]Je2fGzKiqRM[/yt]

This too, also St Elsewhere.
