FOYLE’S WAR! Not only one of the best shows from the U.K., but probably one of the best written series to ever appear on television anywhere. Period setting is perfectly done, acting is out of this world, each episode includes several complex interwoven storylines done brilliantly. The combination of fiction and non-fiction, of personal stories and historical events has never been bettered. And then there is lead actor Michael Kitchen, who can convey more with a silent facial expression than many actors can with pages of dialogue.

Many of the shows from Masterpiece Theater were groundbreaking and made British series become global phenomena. Sadly, too many viewers today are unfamiliar with them. Despite the lower budgets many had, and sometimes the need to do sets like theatrical stages, the actors in these shows reflect some of the greatest in British history and many are based on classics of writing that are themselves, masterpieces. The first three (of many) that come to mind are: - I, CLAUDIUS. - THE JEWEL IN THE CROWN. - BRIDESHEAD, REVISITED. Each features an unbeatable cast, and the content of the stories are deeply profound.

Pity the UK are not producing such great shows anymore. ITV usually produces the best TV at present.

This is a great list to be sure, but I truly don't think such a list can be complete without Poirot or The Young Ones. Poirot, I believe, defines British murder mystery and was so insanely well-made and I'm not sure you get more British than David Suchet's interpretation of Agatha Christie. And The Young Ones changed the face of British comedy irrevocably. I would certainly argue (and I know I might be creating the environment for a comments argument) that it is far more influential and quite frankly better than Fawlty Towers. And one final quibble: while I do agree that what Moffat and Gatiss did modernizing Sherlock is totally brilliant and fresh and was insanely popular, the absolute best portrayal of the iconic detective was Jeremy Brett's.
