Get a kodi box 1000 baht on lazada then you have access to stream everything for free after that. Very easy to set up and even here in the village works great. Failing that install kodi for free on a smart phone laptop or computer and connect to TV to view no adverts sorted

Before coming here I probably watched about 1 hour of British TV a week ......... there was a very good reason for that ........ 99% wasn't worth the effort of looking for the remote control :lol:

Wouldn't know Peter Kay if I fell over him, which probably explains why I've never heard of the progs either :lol:

Just watching The Tour that didnt tour Stand Up from 2011 .......... some stuff not bad, but I suppose it is difficult nowdays to have a routine that gets past all the PC brigade. Prefer the 70's & 80's stand up guys.

Sorta summed it up when he talked about playing air guitar in his mums bedroom at the time I was watching British TV. Did like the end bit to his show with the double handled spade as a 12 string guitar and his vest with a red zig zag as a Freddie Mercury costume.

TV Series:

• Upstairs Downstairs
• The Good Life
• To The Manor Born
• The Likely Lads (and Whatever Happened to the Likely Lads)
• Heartbeat
• The Avengers (and The New Avengers)
• The Professionals
• Judge John Deed
• New Tricks

Uncomfortably close to being a Documentary Series!


• Yes Minister (and Yes Prime Minister)

I remember watching the professionals as a child and used to love it . I watched an episode a couple of years ago and found it really cheesey.
One from around the same time that is still great to watch : MINDER

You poms have mentioned every pommy show made, would have been better to ask for BAD British shows. Much less posting. :lol:

Pot Black was a good show though. Because an aussie called Eddie Charlton was having a go way back.

I used to watch Neighbours when I finished night shift in my earlier days. Kept me fully up to speed on how the average Australian lived their life :lol:
