    IMO all the films are ok, even these British ones, only that a bit of a bit annoys me their accent and most of the words I don't understand because of this accent. So I lost interest in movies, and for a long time, I switched to serials, especially Turkish ones. I liked their culture a long time ago, and I started watching TV shows. I like their level of acting plus that all the actors are wonderful. I am impressed by the purity of their eyes, and I feel like I am hypnotized. In addition to that, I started learning Turkish, and the series with subtitles is the best learning path.

    That was definitely my favourite of the Ripping Yarns series.

    Name the BBC series that featured an Edwardian adventurer, who was frozen and emerged in the London of the swinging sixties. Also, can you name the actor who played the main character. For a bonus, the actor went on to star in a very popular and long-running ITV series several years later--can you also name that one?

    Correct! He played Grayson, the school bully, in Tomkinson's Schooldays

    Correct, well done. Both series were very witty and I remember watching and enjoying them.

    The two sitcoms had almost the same titles. At the start of each episode the two leads would sit before an audience and talk about the early days of their relationship, and that would transition into the sitcom proper.

    Ok, Lisa Goddard starred in a sitcom that was a follow-up to one that had John Alderton and Pauline Collins as the leads. Can you name both sitcoms?
