Actually. BBC America has become so trendy it even had a mention on Sex & The City last week.
I've largely given up on it because of crap ads (spacebags argh!) and repeats of repeats of repeats.
Must admit am enjoying Rebus, that John Hannah is very fine by me!

Reckon Porridge, Reggie Perrin and Colditz would do it for me. And pretty much anything with David Jason in. Fawlty Towers missing from the list only because I've got them on video.

Don't let the name BBC fool you. BBC America is not owned by the BBC but by the Discovery Channel. That's why they broadcast programmes from all British terrestrial channels.

No, no Welsh accent here I'm afraid, was raised by English parents, although I can speak the lingo, and find it incredibly useful and amusing to baffle work mates with "siarad Cymraeg" during happy hour!
Three cheers to Zeta-Jones for putting Wales on the map, no actually, deduct two of those cheers for marrying Michael Douglas and becoming a pampered starlet, and then returning to Wales to show off, dropping the American twang, and trying to impress by conveniently reclaiming her Swansea lilt!
