She's on again. Two hours of fat people talking about poo.
This is why we don't have more Brit Television.
You are an odd bunch.

I download QI. But I subscribe to BBC Canada. It has lots of older British comedies and some of the new dramas, news and everything.
I've come to love Stephen Fry and I always like Hugh Laurie even before House. That Alan Davies cracks me up, poor fella always getting the obvious answers on QI.

Practically all serial-shows on PBS are from the BBC.... How much more British can you get?
I've had dreams with Hugh Laurie in it, even before I knew who he was and before he became all famous with House here. Defenietly freaked me out when I saw House for the first time and saw that Hugh Laurie was a guy I was dreaming about!

Contrary to all you weirdo's that don't watch PBS, I actually like watching PBS. Its the only station that still plays "Hey Aurthur" which I love and not afraid to admit.
Yes..PBS is the only station that really seems to have British shows and I do love the theatrical performances on there...but truly its always a standby station when absolutely nothing seems to be on.
The PBS stations here have lots of stuff on. Oregon Field Guide is one of my favorite shows on TV. There was one episode when they followed a group who was driving around Tillamook, Oregon and gathering indigenous wild foods and learning about their historic significance along the way.

Sorry to seem thick but what's PBS?
PBS stands for Public Broadcasting Service and its a non-for-profit station that pretty much relies on donations form its viewers to operate.
But it broadcasts shows of educational and unbiased nature, often geared towards arts, science, music, history, local community, and news.
Its a great station.
