British TV show rec request

[liresius]

I'm calling out to all my friends who watch Brit TV. Can you rec me any shows you are currently enjoying or have recently enjoyed? I've watched a few over the course of time - like
Fawlty Towers, Hitchhiker's Guide, Red Dwarf, Gormenghast, Brideshead Revisited, QaF, Spooks, Coupling, The Office, Pride and Prejudice (and a couple of other historical dramas), LoM, Jekyll, The State Within, Torchwood and Dr. Who, and probably a lot of others I can't remember at the moment.

I'm up to date on Whitechapel, Merlin and I'm getting a hold of The Vicar of Dibley too. What's your take on the latter? I think that is one my Mum was watching but we don't always share the same taste so wondering if it's worth a shot ...

Is there anything else that's been taking your attention? *cookies* if you can let me have any suggestions

That would be the 1967 mini-series? Granada produced a new version in 2002 with Damian Lewis, Gina McKee and Ioan Gruffudd. Really fabulous.

If you want any more recs let me know. I'm a huge fan of Brit tv. Growing up in a British household that was pretty much all we watched as kids.

Oh, I did see something about a new one on wiki afer your first reply. I'll make sure I get that one.

Thank you for the general offer of more recs too! I have HEAPS to go on now. I'll definitely pick your brain for more, when I get through all the recs here *g*

Mum always preferred Brit stuff so I had a lot of exposure while I was growing up too, but you just don't see or hear about as Brit stuff here in Jpn as American and I'm way behind. Thank the goddesses for the internetz.
