Tell me please... :)

Okay, so in the last week I finished watching "Life on Mars" and "Jekyll" and they've reminded me how cool UK TV is. I mean they have these awesome series that are maybe 4-10 eps long and have actual story arcs with real endings and they are simply made of awesome. Add in actors like John Simm and James Nesbett and not having to listen to American accents all the time and I'm in TV heaven.

So, I was wondering if anyone had some other awesome shows shows to recommend to me that may have passed me by?

Other stuff that I have loved include: "Armidillo" when it was on the TV and I need to buy me more "Wire in the Blood" because I didn't realise there were more seasons of it.

Anyway, feel free to recommend some stuff. Pleeeease! *huge grin*

I have Wire in the Blood Seasons 5 and 4. Though I'm not sure if my Season 4 is still watchable as I recently discovered that some of my DVD backups had gone corrupted!

It's a great series and I don't think you have to watch Season 1 to 3 to follow anything. If you like British mysteries, I highly recommend it!

I also have the 11th Season of Silent Witness - so far only 4 eps have aired. I watch these on ABC when they do air too! I'm really a big fan of mysteries/crime stories so I can't help it.

If you don't mind Taggart, I have one ep!

I also have the Scold's Birdle (which I think I gave to yokiem some while back). Yes, it's also a British mystery - only 2 eps but good enough and intriguing.

I haven't heard of that last one. I'd try it. :)

I'm pretty sure you gave me some S4 WitB, because I loved the first season and hadn't realised it contnued. I haven't watched the eps you gave me yet, so I'll have to dig the disc out as soon as I burn the other series off the computer. Ive seen some Silent Witness. That was good, so I'd love the new ones next time we meet up. If your WitB is corrupted let me know and I can give it back to you. :)
