> I also watched "To serve them all my days", in my opinion phenomenal series based on the book about the soldier who comes back from the first world war, having PTSD, who by recommendation of his neurologist tries to get a teaching job in the boarding school and well, stays there to teach. I highly recommend both movie and the book.
Geoff:
Alla, I'm glad you met this series.
I've actually recommended it several times on the group!!!!
It's about a teacher working on Exmoor and it's highly
recommended by a retired teacher living on Exmoor.
:-)
As others have said, there is a list series as long as your arm.
One I would recommend which is runs to 7 series and 90
episodes is "All Creatures Great and Small", based on a series
of books about vets** working in the North of England from the
1930s to the 1950s.
Glad you found "Yes minister"/"Yes Prime minister". I got the
DVDs for these a year or so back. Howlingly funny, if you know
anything about the British Civil Service system. Margaret Thatcher
even wrote a spoof episode herself, she liked it so much!!!
Have you looked at http://epguides.com?
A marvellous site for this sort of thing.

**veterinary surgeons of course....
