  • Am loving "I Claudius" on BBC4 at the moment. The aging makeup doesn't really stand up to the scrutiny of large modern TVs and the sets occasionally wobble, but the scheming of Livia is great and there's loads of "ooh, it's Wossname off of Thingy" moments.

    I'd really like them to repeat the original House of Cards too.
  • Spin City
  • A very Peculiar Practice
    This Life

    Many of the series mentioned, especially the British BBC ones, are available on DVD these days at very reasonable prices, although it’s still easier to watch on TV than make the effort of sticking in a disc! I bought Shooting the Past, Our Friends in The North and State of Play well over a year ago and they're all still wrapped in cellophane.
    I yearned after seeing a couple of series from my youth, Mission Impossible and the above mentioned Alias Smith and Jones. It cost quite a lot to get copies on DVD from some Far East website. I was really disappointed with both, not the quality of the DVD's but the quality of the programmes. I think we look at a lot of old TV from our childhood through rose tinted spectacles and sometimes it's better to just keep the memories.
    I loved the BBC Colditz programme as a kid, this is currently on the satellite channel Yesterday and again is not as good as I remember. We are a bit spoilt these days with the quality of TV production (not necessarily the content) and stuff from 40 odd years ago can look cheap and even amateurish.
    I simply love The Phil Silvers Show, although nearly 60 years old it still stands up today, and have a few episodes on DVD but you cannot buy many of these, well not officially anyway.

    Is this currently on tv anywhere? Had a look couldn't find it anywhere.
  • Dear John by John Sullivan, great lines such as 'any sexual problems' and the cool guy Kurt.
  • Mysterious cities of gold
