I have got hooked on London's Burning on CBCcountry.Gosh the London fire department is like being in the Army! I also enjoy watching Merseybeat, but other than that there isn't alot on BBC Canada...unless I am missing something. I used to like Clocking On on showcase but that is gone, and I can't get into Footballers wives!
Funny you mentioned the advertizing...while in Uk I thought there was alot of adds on, more than I remember. Funny thing is to see the same ad over there with the same people just a different accent!

That rings a bell with me

My last time my wifes relatives were over from Vancouver, her Uncle spent as much time as he could watching TV.

Why, he loved that fact that there was not a lot of commercials on during a programme, particulary BBC

He hated TV in Vancouver, to many adverts compared to UK TV
