One of the problems of living in the US after some great times in England is that many of the good British shows take forever to make their way to the US, and by the same token, a good number of my favorite British actors of the 70's die and are long gone before any notice is taken over here.

Oddly enough, when I was in England, a fair number of the US shows were being imported and shown on the independent TV stations, just as we have imported many of the great British shows.
