5. Brideshead Revisited
6. Horizon - before it was dumbed down.
7. Tomorrows World (oh how I wish they would revive it!)
8. Look Around You
9. Anything by Reeves and Mortimer (Big Night Out, the Smell of... Bang Bang!, Shooting Stars etc)
10. The Interceptor

Stargate SG1
Stargate Atlantis
Almost anything on History International (it closely resembles the History Channel of yore)
South Park (delicious social commentary)
Monty Python's Flying Circus
A Bit of Fry and Laurie
Blackadder (all season apart from the first, really)
Jeeves and Wooster
Breaking Bad
Mad Men

No particular order, apart from Stargate, as that is one of my favourite series of all time. Aliens running around pretending to be Egyptian, Greek, and Chinese gods with MacGuyver chasing after them blowing their large pyramidal space ships up with either nuclear war heads or massive quantities of C4. Sooo many episodes, too. T'was sad once I got to SE10E20, though.
