Favorite British Television Show

[McHanhan]

I read a thread here on the Escapist that said that there were no good British television shows that were on. I beg to differ, I find Spooks and QI to be amazing and I am sure that there are others out there.

If you can think of any, drop em by.

 

[JRCB]

Torchwood and Doctor Who are amazing. Of course, I don't get much British TV, seeing that I am in Canada.
EDIT:

Past: Monty Python

How could I forget? Also, I'll throw in Blackpool.

 

[scrambledeggs]

Skins, Little Britain.
<3

EDIT:
HOW COULD I FORGET DOCTOR WHO?
I'd die for him.

Are we talking about current TV Shows, or can we offer sugegstions from the past, present or future?

Past: Monty Python
Present: QI
Future: The 2056 remake of Big Brother

A thousand times Screenwipe.

I can't wait for Gameswipe.

And, the masterful, brilliant, fantastic, hilarious, and utterly incredible Peep Show.

 

[Dannyboy1186]

Well I like Monty Python a lot but at the moment it would be Mock of the week. Either that or Doctor Who once it comes back on at Christmas.

 

[Bucket0Bones]

Top Gear is not only the best thing on British television, it is the best television programme in the world.

I'm English and my favourite stuff is coming out of America currently. That said I make sure I always catch 'Mock the Week'.

Newswipe is great, espicially if you are like me and watch the news everyday.

Gameswipe looks awesome, although I get the feeling it will basically be Zero Punctuation on the TV...

 

[AkJay]

Not a very popular show, and it only ran for two seasons, but i think "Spaced" was my favourite.

 

[MindBullets]

Mock the Week, QI, Top Gear, Doctor Who, Torchwood... too many to decide for certain.

I meant present, but those were good choices.
