Hmmm, I'd avoid Top of the Pops if I were you. Might want to stay clear of Jim'll Fix It too...
Okay, maybe that was a bit below the belt, and I'm sorry. Seriously, I'd recommend (as others apparently have done) Primeval, Doctor Who, and Firefly. Also, Merlin, Robin Hood, and Sherlock (the proper BBC one, not the US ripoff with a new name...). Otherwise, I'd sit down and ask her what sort of show she's interested in, then search based on that - it might be much better then than having her sit with you to see something that only one, or neither, of you is/are interested in...
