So, since "Sopranos" is over for the season, I have cancelled HBO and signed up for Netflix. My husband was VERY pleased to see how many British TV series collections they have listed there - SIGNIFICANTLY more than any video store's collection for sure. So far, we've added "League of Gentlemen", "The Goodies", "Bottom", "Red Dwarf", and (just because I'm completely intruiged) "Prisoner Cell Block H" - yeah, I know it's Australian, but it achieved cult status in Britain, lol.....
There's loads more, too, we just haven't had time to add them all - gotta save some time for my "Gilmore Girls" and "Facts of Life", lol....
Anyway, just thought I'd put it out there for anyone missing Brit TV and can't find what they want on UKNova.

And they also have a two week free trial which is a fab deal

I love my netflix! I've had it for several years now! Have fun!

keep working on UKNova...it's SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO well worth the effort...

you know...get to keep up with Big Brother and the Eurovision Song Contest...

I can see how this can be an advantage Frances

LOL Prisoner Cell Block H...

I used to watch that crap after I got home from the pub, no wonder they had it on late at night. It was certainly amusing and funny to watch.

I will have to have a look at netflix and check out what UK stuff they have, sounds cool.

Got Craig onto UKNova months back, *(he's the one who actually learned how to use it after finally being able to join!!!) and totally addicted now...love that site..so whoever recommended it here first..>WOOT WOOT and thanks! to you!!!

Will have to check out NetFlix..been hearin' about it for a long time now...main thing I'm worried about is how much does it cost and exactly how does it work? I'm worried about things like extra charges, postage, late charges and the like...anyone care to enlighten me...sounds like a good thing to have! Mich

If you check out their site it give a clear explanation about all their charges. Personally I find it a bit of a rip off and going to the video store is cheaper and more relaible. My local store has all the obscure foreign films we like to watch at only $1 for 2 night rental. You can't really beat that. With Netflix you don't really get to choose when you watch the film as you're always waiting for the mail. There are NO late charges or postage charges which is good. You just send it back in the prepaid envelope whenever you like.

Ok, I'll check it out thanks.

Still sounds like a good deal to me if you don't have all those extra charges to deal with..esp. if we can get some more Brit comedies, which I love as well! We already get Red Dwarf(Craig has that collection) Dr.Who(ditto on many of those as well...ex. for the new ones of course) and some others...but not a lot of those mentioned above..so might be fun just for that! We don't really care when we get to watch em, as long as we do! Our little vid store here is 3 bucks for a new release(and it's just a mom and pop type of place!) and 1 for old movies...both for one night..but if it's late,etc it costs the same as if you would have rented it another night...and there's usually only one copy..sometimes two...so it's just as hard to see it sometimes! M.

I don`t think Spaced is out on DVD there so i intend to just get a multi region player. I have heard bad things about netflix or one of those type of things.

Oh, yeah! The multi-region player and/or a hacked one is a must have!!! M.
