So the much trailed White Gold starts tonight. There's a serious darth of British drama/comedy worth watching at the moment so hopefully it's not a turd...

After watching the entire series on iplayer last night: It's pretty great.

Just finished up Scrotal Recall/Lovesick and really enjoyed it, looking for recommendations in the same vein. I have watched Fresh Meat and Coupling.

I'm guessing you've seen the Inbetweeners if you've seen Fresh Meat?

Scrotal Recall always gave me the impression they came up with the name and then put together a show around it

Thanks for the recommendations. I have watched The Inbetweeners but Uncle looks promising. I like Scrotal Recall as the title but think Lovesick is also fitting and probably more palatable to a wider audience.

'Scrotal Recall' definitely sounds like the Work in Progress name and should definitely have been changed.

I have not, it's been added to the list, looks promising. I devoured Uncle over the weekend and loved every second so thanks for that recommendation! I'm just a bit depressed there won't be a fourth series, it definitely ended on a high note.

This season of Taskmaster feels very very setup ala Top Gear and its putting me off the show.

I dont have any shows to watch, whats good and currently airing or recent that I may have missed?

Guess I'm back to watching "Cant pay, we'll take it away" where Vic and Stu are going to have to use all their experience to get the client to pay up - and if he cant pay, they will take his goods away.

All the Shearsmith stuff (Inside No 9, Psychoville, LoG) has just made it to Netflix. I must have caught some the first episode of LoG as a kid, because I've had the image of that weird frog man ("Into which we do not pass solids!") in my head since the 90s.
