What would you like to see repeated (but they never do)

The Sandbaggers.
The P D James detective series with Adam Dalgliesh .
The early Taggarts.

Peter Skellerns - Happy Endings series, quite amusing , but I love the music, most of the series is available on YouTube, but as they have been uploaded via someone’s at home video the quality isn’t so good.
Love the ‘Visitation from the BBC’ all from the early 70s I think, old cars, quaint old grocery shops - a dose of nostalgia with good music.

Telford's Change, with the wonderful Peter Barkworth.
Cracker
The View From Daniel Pike
My Wife Next Door

I would love to watch A Country Practice again. It was set in a veterinary surgery in Australia and used to be on in the afternoons. I loved the romance between Shirley and Frank the local policeman in it. I also loved Richard Hittleman’s Yoga programme that used to be on late afternoon or tea time. I laugh now when I think of how I was able to contort myself copying all the poses. Now I’m decrepit watching it would be of as much use to me as a chocolate fireguard !

Grandma, you need a dvd player, and, like me she may not have one.

I loved Cracker.

Yes, Calendargirl, it was about a French girl (called Hélène, I think) who came over here. The tune is indeed lovely. Thanks for reminding me about the follow-up, which I had completely forgotten.

‘Stranger In The City’ was the follow up.

Stranger on the Shore. Black and white and shown at Sunday teatime, I think.

Acker Bilk’s lovely theme tune went on to top the charts. Was it about a young Frenchwoman who came over here?

There was a follow up, ‘Stranger……’ but without looking it up I can’t remember.

Stranger on the Shore. Black and white and shown at Sunday teatime, I think.

An old black and white version of Jane Eyre. I think Ann Bell played Jane, can’t remember who played Mr Rochester but I can picture him.

It was on at a Sunday tea time I recall. Both my sister and I were terrified when the mad woman in the attic appeared and set fire to the place!

I'd love to see The Fast Show as I missed out on it.

Line of Duty and Spiral from the very first series to the last ones.

All these are on catch up tv. We loved bingeing on them during lockdown.

I’d love to see Soap
Strange Report
and What Katy Did with Susan Hampshire as Katy and Michelle Dotrice as Clover.

The Thorn Birds

Adam Adamant. I used to love that programme. Green Wing and Peak Practice have both been issued on DVD (maybe others too) and it's worth a look on World of Books or the Oxfam site for second hand copies. Which reminds me, I haven't tried them myself to see if Adam Adamant is available!

I still remember a wonderful version of Carl Orff's "Carmina Burana" on BBC2 with dramatic staging. I would love to see that repeated.

Wendy Craig was in an episode of Midsummer Murders (she did it) and a hospital Matron can't remember the name of the series set in Scarborough in the 60s.

Had to Google it, as I enjoyed it, Wendy Craig in The Royal.

i loved general hospital, the uk version, i had a teenage crush on mr parker brown.

Sons and Daughters

I was going to say onedin line that was great wasn’t it and Just good friends with Paul Nicholas .

Googled (of course!) Peter Barkworth.

I recollect a Sunday evening series called 'Telford's change' which we loved. About a bank manager and family. Hannah Gordon was the lady lead. I can see the male quite clearly but can't for the life of me recollect his name. All help appreciated!

A lot of the costume dramas have been shown on the Drama channel - I loved Cranford .
Lark Rise to Candleford
Onedin Line,
Flambards
Middlemarch
Mayor of Casterbridge
Homefires
Duchess of Duke Street

Just to name a few!

"Diana" by R.F. Delderfield with Kevin McNally and Jenny Seagrove (nothing to do with |HRH) it was excellent. A real good yarn as my Grandma would have said.

Green Wing is on All4 and Britbox. Boys from the Blackstuff is on Britbox as are some of the others mentioned here.

I meant that the language, attitudes and behaviours from years ago may be the reason some of these programmes are not aired nowadays.
