Best Recent British TV Dramas

It would be ignorant for me to say I've run out of US dramas to watch, but I've probably knocked out at least 30 full series the last 5 years. I am sitting here watching Sherlock, series 1, episode 3 and I'm just amazed. I never really have given British TV a go, except for a show called Survivors, which I thought was very good.

Please recommend your top British TV dramas from the 2000s or later. I look forward to expanding my TV watching horizons.

There's all sorts of DEEP theories and audience investigation and speculation about how he pulled it off.

I don't know shit about British television, but my brother and his wife really really enjoyed Merlin, and I've heard a lot of great things about Sherlock.

I don't like many if any british tv dramas. I find them boring and compared to american tv shows incompetent. Dr who is for kids and sherlock is ridicilous. I quite liked dr who with David Tennant but definetly not with the new one.

My cable went out for a week and a half and I somehow managed to miss both the 2nd and 3rd episodes.

(you may ask how one goes a week and a half without cable...I still had roadrunner the whole time, which is more important to me than TV for work-related reasons so I procrastinated on the service call...)

Wow. I read that one theory on there, and now it makes perfect sense. IT HAS TO BE THAT.

I just watched the first episode of Sherlock last night on Netflix. It was ****in great. I'm hooked. Can't wait to watch the rest. I took a chance on it and I'm glad I did.

Well I finished the first 3 episodes of Sherlock. I liked the first episode by FAR the best. Episode 2 and 3 weren't as good imo. Hopefully season 2 has more episodes like the first.

For me--Doctor Who, Merlin, Foyle's War, Rumpole of the Bailey. Doctor Who's upcoming season is going to be the show's 50th anniversary and they are going to be pulling out all the stops. Merlin is a really entertaining show with a super-likable cast. Foyle's War (now on Netflix!) is about a police inspector during WW2--the first 4 seasons were terrific, the last couple not so much (the show is currently not being made because of a legal dispute). Rumpole was an 80's drama-comedy about a grizzled old lawyer arguing underdog cases at the Old Bailey courts (and his overbearing wife!). Plenty of great suggestions on this thread!

Still seems really teenage soap opera-esque...
