70s & 80's series/Dramas.

[falcon]

I'm a big fan of 70's and 80's t.v series and would appreciate some ideas on what to watch next.

They don't have to be set in those decades, just made then.

One I've been considering purchasing is Upstairs Downstairs, is that worth a watch?

Recent series I've loved are All Creatures Great and Small,Dick Turpin,Nanny,Me and My Girl, Some Mother's Do 'Ave em and Fawlty Towers.

I'd love suggestions of just about anything from dramas to comedies.

Sapphire and Steel is still good now. I recently got the set on DVD and still find the storylines and effects scary.

i wonder why they never repeat nanny, we loved that on a saturday night . bet it makes wincey watching now

Irish RM
Barchester Chronicles

I would love to see Making Out again - doesn't seem to be available though

They've recently released the first series of Nanny on DVD Southeastra,which is how I discovered it.

I think it's excellent though I didn't expect it to make me cry so much.

I'm eagerly anticipating the release of series 2 and 3.

Robin of Sherwood. Oooh, I loved that. Michael Praed - big teenage crush!

Oooh yes... Edge of Darkness. Excellent.

Pigeon Pie, can't believe there is someone else who watched The Irish RM it was brill. I also loved Mapp & Lucia.
My dd aged nearly 10 loves fawlty towers and are you being served
