+1 to that, I also like Ground Force, Changing Rooms, Monty Python, and The Enemy within.


ETA-I've heard that Top Gear (same on Discovery) airs there, never seen it on the BBC though.

I just discovered BBC America a few weeks ago.  I was going to post about it but I figured you'd call me a fag.

Cash In The Attic is teh shizznit.  I even went to an auction after that and was like "oooh, look at this plate, that's a reproduction of a decorative Victorian style.  See these slits around the edge, that is where people would run ribbon thru them and hang them."  It's sad to see all those great antiques and heirlooms like Grandfather's cane that the Duke of Essexshire had signed by the Queen and given to him being sold to pay for a new stereo or acting lessons though

Bargain Hunt a few times but those people on there always overpay.

I keep missing The F***ing Fulfords but I have heard its good.  

I've even caught myself watching some of Footballers Wives  Those bitches are hateful!

Been watching "Are You Being Served" and "Last of the Summer Wine" on PBS too.

that blond chick is smokin'



She was also the lead on Worst Weak of my Life. Coupling is a great show. The funniest was Trailer Park Boyz, but I don't believe they have shown anything past season 2, and it hasn't been on in awhile.

The Avengers of course, but when they were showing it last it was the Tara King era...

Monarch of the Glen,   except I dont have BBCA anymore.
And I have only found the first season on dvd.

Anyone know if Archie died?   I missed a couple weeks of the last season I was able to watch, and then caught one, and he wasnt on there.

Don't confuse homosexuality with taste. The fags are watching Bravo...

Sarah Alexander you mean?

quite sexy one...

With my wife we watch several BBC PRIME (this the way is called here...) programs:

- SAS Survival Secrets
- Are you tough enough for the SAS
- Escape to the country
- Home to Home
- Red Cap
- Garden Modeling
- Small Town Gardens
- Living the Dream
- Property Man

and lately The House of a Million Pounds, that gave me an insight of how UK estate market works.

We has the SAS show on our Outdoor Channel.  I thought it was hilarious when they'd patrol with flat-top ARs that had no sights period.    Stupid Brits.

Archie isn't dead, he's in New Zealand.  

You can find the episode guides on one of the BBC sites.  My wife and I are working our way through the Monarch seasons through Netflix, after Netflix suggested we might like the show.  It's like gaelic crack.  We're only into the 3rd season, though, and just to the part where Hector died.  I'm not sure how much I'm going to like it when some of the main characters are gone (Hector and Archie, mainly).

PS:  Aha.  Seasons 1, 2, and 3 are available on DVD (see here.)

Here's the Main BBC page and the BBC America page on MOTG.  And HERE is the episode guide if you want to catch up.

I love "The Office," "Faking It," "Kumars at No. 42," and my old faves Monty Python and "Keeping Up Appearances."

And don't forget Benny Hill!
