Series you would love to see repeated

It was just called 'Vietnam'. It featured Nicole Kidman as a 14 year old schoolgirl. Maybe 14yo s/girls are taller in Oz, but I found her less than convincing.

Oz Hippy chick: 'What do you think of our anti-war protest, then mate'.

Oz Squaddie: 'It's really great to know everyone at home's behind you'. [breaks down and sobs]

Aha, cheers - post-BMX Bandits but pre-Dead Calm & Bangkok Hilton.
 
  • Harry was quite a nice little drama about a shabby freelance hack (Michael Elphick) and an early appearance by the bumbling minister from In The Loop, wouldn't mind seeing that again.
  • The Paradise Club - probably a guilty pleasure - East End gangster Leslie Grantham and his ex-priest brother Don Henderson - but I wouldn't mind seeing the second series again (caught the first last year on a torrent)
  • Attachments - again, got S1 on a torrent, but couldn't find S2, and am all on tenterhooks looking for satisfaction.

Harry was very good.

I remember the Paradise Club, it was shit and also brilliant iirc
 
Does anyone remember a thing about the struggle for renewable energy from the late 70s called the Something Report (I think)?

It was about a journalist trying to build up a story about e.g. windfarms and tidal power and getting nobbled by the energy industry old guard.

My mum used to follow it.
 
Can I only choose series? What about Frequently asked Questions About Time Travel, or that other (BBC, I think) film about an emergency telephone operator who is being psyched out by weird callers?
 
The Beeb should've repeated all of The Young Ones and Not the Nine O'Clock News when Rik Mayall and Mel Smith died respectively.
