I'm going to be moving to the UK next month and wanted to know if there are any good tv shows to look out for. Any recommendations?

Sorry.. on a serious note, The Apprentice is really kicking off. Saw the first couple of shows, it was quite good! Channel 4 and BBC is your best bet for UK tv shows - drama, comedy etc.. Everything else if from the US.. wow.. it's actually quite difficult to think of one UK recommendation for you!

OK thinking of a few more shows.. The Graham Norton show (chat show with celebs).. Friday Night With Jonathan Ross (chat show with celebs). Both VERY funny!

Try catch 'Shameless'. Just started watching that myself..

I cant thinking of any 'new' show worth mentioning.. The Office is of course the BEST show ever!! Extras is a close second

Got to love Ricky Gervais!

Why not look out for or pick up the dvd of Father Ted!

Catherine Tate is also very good English comedy.. (sketch show)

Catch re-runs of Coupling. Kind of like Friends but with the english humor.

I'm not a gear head (petrol head) but I like cars. That's what got me watching it. Now my g/f recommends it too and she doesn't care a bit about cars.
