Off the top of my head;

 

Auf Wiedersehen Pet 1&2

 

Boys from the black stuff

 

Das boot (the series, not the film)

 

Life on Mars

 

Morse

 

The Fast Show

 

(I've probably missed ones I liked more, but there you go, I have to say me and the missus like 'Lie to me' at the minute with Tim Roth.)

 

The singing detective was very good too.

Yes thats the one...I'm amazed it ran for as long as it did. it was weak.

 

I'm surprised no one's mentioned Black Books yet :lol: Believe it or not for some reason I never saw it, I bought it recently and we all laughed non stop at it, brilliant!

Blatantly written (and enjoyed) by blokes who were having an affair and daydreaming about the best way to get away with it. Such a shocking program.

One of the geezers off that ended up as Tommy Carcetti in The Wire and the other main one is on Corrie now. The Life and Loves of a She Devil wasn't it btw? With Dennis Waterman.

With taste like yours, I wouldn't like to say :lol:

I think it's brilliant but it's a bit of a 'slow burner' if you know what I mean. The storyline takes place over the whole of each series rather than each individual episode or two having a conclusion. Best way is to get the DVDs and watch 2 or 3 back-to-back imo. Worth the effort to start with and then very addictive once you get into it.

Thats it, odd but very watchable.
