An Experiment: The UK TV Thread

[Flying Pig]

This thread is an experiment which I think is a really good idea: if you are a UK resident who knows of a really good TV program or series on now, write it here so that other people know about it.

I'll start with QI - on NOW! BBC 2

Im sure top gear is most probably playing on living tv as we speak
All those reruns!

France v Wales on BBC2

Uni C and Masterchef are brillzo.

Skins and the Inbetweeners are double brillzo.

Ireland vs England on BBC1 - 0-0 at the moment with 25 minutes gone.

The new Skins series is the worst load of crap I have ever had the unfortunance to have had to watch.

It's not as good as the first couple of seasons, but if you can get past Emily's hammy acting and Freddie's intrinsic boringness it's still pretty watchable.

Did you think the second series was worse than the first series? I could not get over how pessimistic it was, with everyone dying and getting cancer.

I think the first season worked best as a whole... Season 2 had it's moments (Sid, Chris and Michelle's episodes were pretty good IMO) but none of the characters seemed to like each other, so the season felt quite disjoint.

Top Gear and QI are probably the best programs on tv in the UK at the moment.


Skins has gone to crap. The current series is terrible.

Goodbye Lenin is on BBC2 - it's 20 minutes in already.

In German with English subtitles.
