What are your favorite BBC shows?

[McHavyck]

In the last year, I've really gotten into a lot of shows that air across the pond on BBC America.

There have been some really well done shows...which of course we Americans don't usually get to see until a year after they air in the UK.

Here are my favorites (in no particular order):
The Office
Primeval
Jekyll (although it only got one season)
Top Gear
Hex

So, what are yours?

 

[KitFisto]

I like the show where Gordon Ramsey goes around and tells people how F'ed up their restaurants are. He had a show on BBC a few years before he was doing the same thing here.

Yea, that's a good show. They did one for a restaurant about 10 minutes from here and it really did make a difference.

My favorite show on BBC is, of course, Doctor Who. But they have some great ones on it.

As I remember from when I lived in the States the best shows on BBC America were
Father Ted
The Fast Show aka Brilliant
Blackadder

All the Gordon Ramsey shows are made by a commercial station called channel 4
