The BBC adaption of Tender is the Night, adapted by Dennis Potter, starring Mary Steenburgen. In the 80s I thought it was the most romantic thing ever. Not sure what I'd make of it now!

I had forgotten about Midnight Caller?

Infatuation with Bob Eubanks (horrendously entertaining American show).

And Sunset Beach.

@Disfordarkchocolate @Mythreefavouritethings Awwww, glad I'm not the only one! I think it's the memories attached to it that make me so wistful!

I also would love to watch Coupling again!

Sleepers..

Mad spy comedy drama with Nigel Havers and Warren Clarke as russian sleeper agents- now totally assimilated into British life when they are “activated”- i think they then try to avoid their KGB handlers...

I would love to watch Moonlighting again and be as much in love with David Addison as I was when I was a young teen. It just wouldn't be the same now.

One Tree Hill is pennies on DVD from CeX. I get a lot of old shows from there.

Shenanagins · 07/05/2019 21:10

Drop the dead donkey, it was such a great show.

When on mat leave I got to see reruns of Cagney and Lacey and it did not disappoint.

Mythreefavouritethings · 07/05/2019 21:16

Oh my God, Sunset Beach!!! 😀😀😀 (Er, I mean, dear oh dear, thank goodness I have grown up and developed a more mature taste since those days.....)

Anoisagusaris · 07/05/2019 21:19

Cardiac Arrest is on You Tube - I watched it last year.

I have My So Called Life on DVD but haven’t watched it in years. So so good.

Would love to see The Wonder Years, Press Gang, Byker Grove and Children’s Ward.

Bangkok Hilton with Nicole Kidman, I think it was a mini series.

AnyoneButAnton · 07/05/2019 21:21

Sleepers is a great call. I remember it being brilliant.

Doza · 07/05/2019 21:34

The Expanse: watched the first two series on Netflix but now it’s gone to Amazon prime and I can’t stream it in Ireland 😡😡😡

Giggorata · 07/05/2019 21:38

Blake's Seven. So long ago, bound to be disappointing, but I remember it as awesome..
Malcom in the Middle
Filthy Rich and Catflap

I saw Tutti Fruitti recently, on one of the web channels, but I can't find it again, now.

Not rtft but saw someone mentioned Son's and Daughters, also back around the same time, The Sullivan's.

Thirty something. Such a great series!

Redshoeblueshoe · 07/05/2019 22:51

Cold case is on one of the freeview channels during the day.
If I find it I'll post the time and channel on here tomorrow

Reasonstobeearful · 07/05/2019 23:28

Loads of sunset beach is on YouTube! I tried to show the DCs but they were not impressed.

@SarfEsticated both Life on Mars and Ashes to Ashes are on dailymotion. You can stream to your TV from your phone with a plugin like Chromecast. Or just watch on your phone.

BummyKnocker · 07/05/2019 23:35

Teaches, I loved it. Andrew Lincoln was in it.

Satterthwaite · 07/05/2019 23:48

North Square. Lawyery drama with Adam from Spooks set in Leeds. Before Silk but quite similar.

Adored Ally McBeal. Just loved it.

Myimaginarycathasfleas · 08/05/2019 00:00

I think you can still watch Teachers as a box set on C4 on demand. I agree, loved it!

Prisoner Cell Block H. I discovered it one night when I was camping in my new house, one room set up with basics including a TV. Would like to see the entire series.

Thirty Something.

Doctors, the early ones especially as I never saw them.
