British series, mini-series and dramas .....

Have I Got A Bit More News For You ... has me in stitches every week.
Last week they had Alistair Campbell as the presenter... Ian Hislop tore him to shreds - he came close to losing his cool a couple of times ;)

Oh shut up!

have not seen a episode yet but that red head chick with the above line in the trailer kinda does it for me in a trashy sort of way :D
 
Wetn to the library today to get some new books and had a look at the video section and I found Fortunes of War which I took out. No idea what it's like but will be watching it later after I have ripped it (only allowed to keep videos for 2 days).

Although it's not a story, I've just bought QI, and it's just so different watching without the beeps and ads. Dstv gets about 20mins per episode while the DVD has 30 mins!

For stories,
Morse
Lewis
Foyles war

So when you go to Mr. Video, Video Town etc you expect VHS tapes on the shelves? :D

VHS - Video Home System
VCD - Video CD
DVD - Digital Video Disc (Initially)

They all do video :D
