Best British dramas?

[TillHammerZeit]

I rarely watch television,but last night I watched 'Remember Me',and loved it. I'd like to watch some other British dramas,and would appreciate any recommendations.

It doesn't matter if they're decades old. They don't have to be ghost stories either. Any suggestions would be very welcome.

TIA

'Our Friends in the North'- lots of big names, including an unrecognisable Daniel Craig, great drama that spans a few of decades in the life of a group of friends. I have it on dvd and have watched it over and again (apologies if you've seen it).

Tenko - loved it
Prime of Miss Jean Brodie, with Geraldine McEwan in the title role
Frost in May

I loved 'Our Friends in The North'.

Nice Work
A very Peculiar Practice
Chancer

Does anyone remember Starling?

Dance to the music of time
Brides head revisited

Morse
Love in a cold climate

edge of darkness and life's and loves of she devil which was repeated recently

The Accused
The Street

Boys From The Blackstuff

Edge of Darkness was brilliant. south

Parades end
Dancing on the edge

Shooting The Past
The Lost Prince

south- I recently watched 'She -Devil'- a bit dated and some shocking acting, but still brilliant to watch again after all these years.

Best- I loved 'the Lost Prince'- very sad story, that I'd had no idea about previously.

(Will now stop hogging thread)

Foyle's War - all 7 series of it! I adore Michael Kitchen

The Jewel in the Crown - best thing I've ever seen on tv

Totally agree about Edge of Darkness

Clocking Off

Cracker, Traffic (adapted by Hollywood, british series much better than film), House of Cards (another one adapted by US), State of Play (Russell Crowe version after UK version) -- agree with lots of the one's above too! Recently, the Honourable Woman was very good.

Our Friends in the North for me too, absolutely brilliant. Best British drama ever IMO.

Prime suspect

Oranges are not the only fruit

Moll Flanders

House of Cards - the Ian Richardson version
Life on Mars
Foyle's War

I was going to come on and recommend Tenko but a PP beat me to it. Therefore can I suggest 'Wish Me Luck'. Written by the writers of Tenko, it's about British female spies in the French Resistance. I found it utterly compelling.
