I actually just finished watching the last season of Wire In The Blood. Great series, too bad it's been cancelled.

I need to catch up on some Doctor Who (season 3 and 4), and then get started on Spooks again.

There are also tons of other shows that I really need to watch, like Black Adder, A Touch Of Frost, etc.

Re: Any other BRIT TV fans out there?

Just finished watching Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy which was just as good as the first time I saw it, almost 30 years ago. Next up is the sequel, Smiley's People which I've never seen. Others I've been catching up on recently are Elizabeth R, Foyle's War, and Fall Of Eagles. All were very good, though Elizabeth and Fall were very theatrical, more like filmed plays than television programs. Of more recent vintage, I think Showtime's The Tudors is excellent, if not always historically accurate.

I just received the "Mystery and Imagination" ( late 1960s) set yesterday. Nice booklet on the entire series included. Includes the Dracula adaptation with Denholm Elliott, Frankenstein, Fall of the House of Usher, and several others.
