I know I put in another thread how much I like
Sherlock starring Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman, but I thought I should add it here, too. You can see clips and such on the BBC's
very cool Sherlock site.
Another British show which I've been enjoying lately via Netflix is an oldie but goodie:
Black Adder starring Rowan Atkinson. Each season has the title character in a different time period and it's a hilarious parody of each era, from the Middle Ages to World War I. To give you an idea, the series starts with the Yorkist Black Adder (Edmund, Duke of Edinburgh) accidentally killing Richard III!
