This was a horror anthology series syndicated in the U.S. circa 1974; the narrator was a distinguished bearded older gentleman (possibly British) who wasn't Vincent Price or Orson Welles, but was seeking to push similar buttons. He'd emerge from swirls of ghostly mist to deliver philosophical musings and introduce the episode, returning in the ( Read more... )

I've been racking my brain (and scouring the internet) trying to find a British TV espionage/spy series I saw in the late 80s or early 90s. It aired in the US on PBS. The main character was middle-aged and had a very common name- Mr. Smith, Jones, Johnson, something like that. He was working in an office in England with younger agents who ( Read more... )

I'm looking for a television film that aired probably in 2013 on the BBC or BBC One. It features two fairly well-known actors whose names I can't remember - the man is older (50s?) with graying hair, and the woman is maybe in her 40s and is blond but fairly fit. The plot revolves around them meeting on a train - they're both busy commuters. At ( Read more... )

I watched it when I was younger, but I also found it on youtube before. It's a British cartoon with more of an adult audience. The mc is a thirty-something woman, plain and squat very Cathy-esque. The only episode I really remember is where she gains a lot of weight and starts dating a guy who only likes her for her size and keeps trying to feed ( Read more... )

After posting this I found it - 'Coming home/Nancherrow'. I am Impressively wrong on a lot of the details and it apparently featured a young Keira KnightlyI'm trying to remember the name of what I think was an ITV drama that I saw at Easter years and years ago (12 or more). It was in two or three parts, which were on at Easter and then I think at ( Read more... )

I remember a few years back I saw this movie. It was set in Britain and was about two brothers. One of them had Down's Syndrome and the older brother struggled to cope with it. In one scene the older brother tries to kill the disabled one by pushing him off a cliff. However, the brother survives and is airlifted to hospital and the older brother ( Read more... )

I remember a show I occasionally looked at on BBC - it was kind of like Bill Nye, except I swear it was called Doctor Who. It was more medical than all-inclusive sciency.

Of course, results only give me the popular sci-fi show. Have I been imagining this, or...?

Trying to determine the origin of something I'd have seen on a UK terrestrial channel during the late-1990s/early-2000s.

It was a series of short skits, spoofing either Pride and Prejudice or BBC adaptations of costume dramas in general, spread out over an episode of a comedy sketch show.

First skit opened with a scene of a few upper-class Regency ( Read more... )
