Good UK TV series to binge watch?

[TheRozzers]

Been signed off work for 6 weeks post surgery and need some recommendations. I really like gripping dramas and also black comedy.

Things I’ve really enjoyed:

⁃	Day of the Jackall 
⁃	Happy Valley 
⁃	The end of the f<strong>*</strong>ing world 
⁃	A very English Scandal 
⁃	The Crown 
⁃	Last Tango in Halifax 
⁃	Black Doves 

Any suggestions??

The West Wing. One of the best US political dramas of all tjme
Scandal - Another US political drama. I'm absolutely hooked on this series
Greys Anatomy - Another brilliant Shonda Rhimes series.

I love all three of these series. All utterly brilliant.

Not a drama or a comedy but if you want something a bit lighter but oddly gripping there's a new series of Traitors on iplayer at the moment

Thanks! I put UK dramas as I seem to prefer these but no harm in trying some US ones. Maybe I've watched all the good UK ones.

Enjoying rewatching The Split.
If you like quirky crime stuff then Ludwig and Professor T are both good.

Ooh good shout, I didn't watch the first season, does that matter? I know who won the prize

Broadchurch OP

Line of Duty
The Cormoran Strike series
Life on Mars

Seath on Paradise (plus Beyond and Return)
SAS Rogue heroes
Ludwig
Showtrial

Ghosts

Spooks - old but good
Also waking The Dead
Silent Witness
Unforgotten
Bad Sisters

Trigger point

Grandchester

Have a look on iPlayer you should find the 1980s/1990s Smileys People and Tinker Taylor with Alec Guiness as Smiley, both excellent.

Also you could binge the Jeremy Brett 'Sherlock Holmes' or Poirot or Miss Marple.

I loved Ludwig
Playing Nice was good
New Tricks (this is my comfort watch now)
The Split
Line of Duty

I'll be back - I just can’t get into US shows for some reason so I’m a bit of a UK aficionado

Okay I’m going to drop my list of UK shows I love (also love Happy Valley, Last Tango in Halifax, The Crown)

Broadchurch
Scott & Bailey
Line of Duty
Gentleman Jack
Blue Lights
The Responder
Unforgotten
The Nest
Strike
Time
Kin
Four Lives
Years & Years

-Bonus one because it is an Australian show but Wentworth Prison is super good!!!

I have more UK shows that are slightly more light hearted, let me know if you’d like them too. :D

Not a UK series but if you haven't seen it I would check out the first 2 seasons of NCIS.

Good stories and some very funny moments as well.

If you want comedy:
Ghosts
Here We Go
Gavin and Stacey
Vicious
Motherland
Philomena Cunk series

What was the crime thriller type show with Jamie Dornan in it? That was quite good...
There was also one that had a woman that was drugged by the man, maybe in a seaside flat?
Gosh I am so very helpful!

Patience on ITV1 is worth a catch up, set in York ….

Came on the say Unforgotten, it’s really good.
Strike is enjoyable.
I recently enjoyed Lynley mysteries-quite silly and dated but enjoyed.
Inspector George Gently.

Ludwig is excellent.

The Diplomat on Netflix. OK not STRICTLY British but it’s set in Britain, at least half and half about British and US plot lines. Plus there are British actors in it pretending to be Americans 😆

What we do in the Shadows funny and dark

Pesky Blinders! We’re late to the party but absolutely glued. On iplayer.

Peaky Blinders even!
