We also watch Doc Martin and a few shows from Netflix (Ballykissangel, etc.) I've never been a fan of Coronation Street, but that stupid bluesy theme song haunts me even now. I order disks directly from England and play them on a zone free DVD player. The writing is so much better than most American series. I absolutely hate the "reality TV" crap the US puts out now. I hope it doesn't catch on across the pond.
Yeah, the British put forth much better writing than typical American dribble, at least what we tend to have access to.

Heartbeat - I will check that out.

We have bought many series on disc. Some of them are annual plays for us. I need to get a zone free player; I ordered Rising Damp, but can't play it yet.

Hulu has many great series available.
