Potioncat:
On this side of the pond, the Public Broadcast Stations carry several 
British shows. I suppose these are very old shows, and are run 
together. So on Sunday evenings (in my location) we get "Are you Being 
Served?" "As Time Goes By" (2 episodes), and "Keeping Up Appearances." 
I try not to turn the TV on too early, or leave it on too long, because 
I can't stand the first and last show, but I dearly love "As Time Goes 
By."

My Mom---God rest her soul---loved "Are You Being Served." As she grew 
older she enjoyed watching any of the BBC shows, but especially the 
British comedies. Both of her parents were British and she really 
appreaciated the language and the humour.
