Damn you people! I kept wondering where or what the Teesside might be, checked at Wikipedia and now I've been reading up on the history of trolleybusses in England for the last hour. Damn you!

You could watch it too, the 2002 series of Auf Wiedersehen Pet is about a bunch of "cowboy" builders who sell the Transporter Bridge to Arizona.

Between Netflix, Hulu and shows that are made available legally via streaming from their "official" web sites, I've really managed to cut down on my piracy a lot, but if I can't find it there, nor buy it at all, I consider it fair game
