The new David Attenborough documentary Life Story starts at 9pm tonight!
Sadly that means the idiots at the BBC have made it clash with Peaky Blinders.
Even ITV seem to be making an uncharacteristic effort with The Great Fire but they've put it on at the same time.
So discuss any of them here.
Or maybe use this thread to discuss anything else on UK TV from The Apprentice, to foreign shows that don't have their own thread to arguing about what the best quiz show on TV is (obviously it's Pointless).

I'll always be mad at whoever cancelled "Hit&Miss" in season 1. That showed deserved a S2 just to wrap things up. Great show.
I'm really into Peaky Blinders on netflix and am SOOOOOO pissed we won't get S2 for a while because of the new villains on that show.
Another show I loved from the UK that they play on Hulu: Misfits (yes, even the later seasons with the new kids)

Those Goslings jumping off the cliff and bouncing off the rocks all the way down, they're hardcore!
And the best quiz show is Only Connect.

I miss my Monday night triple bill Shooting Stars/Red Dwarf/Stressed Eric Good times I still sometimes like to use "Arseburger" like Eric's boss in Stressed Eric. I miss when Never Mind the Buzzcocks was actually watchable. The downward spiral it's been on since Simon Amstell left the show is staggering. I like Rhod Gilbert, but not even he's doing anything to improve it. Been enjoying Dave Gorman's "Modern Life is Goodish" though. Been a fan since "Are You Dave Gorman?" (aka "The Dave Gorman Collection"), and the visual of Sir Alan Sugar's face and the words "Yum Yum!" on a van turning up to a dogging site just cracked me up completely.

Strictly Come Dancing. I love it. Watch it religiously.
I also hate The X Factor, so that makes me love Strictly even more.

And the best quiz show is Only Connect.Love Only Connect as well, it's refreshing to actually have a gameshow on television which isn't wrapped up in over dramatisation and cheesy gimmicks, one which actually celebrates highbrow intelligence, and having the goddess that is Victoria Coren goes a long way to helping as well.

Life Story nature Documentary by the BBC was incredible and probably traumatised half the nation as Goslings fell 400ft, albatross got eaten by sharks, small mantids got munched and other perils of nature.
The baby geese were amazing!!

I gave up on Buzzcocks last series.
My guilty pleasure right now is gogglebox. The premise of it sounds retarded and like something they came up with to make a show on the cheap, but I've found the people on it fascinating, plus it's a way to keep up with the big news and TV events of the week without much effort

I've been watching clips of the past episodes on YouTube. The Nigella stuff was brilliant! I wish it was all on 4OD but I assume the TV rights of the programmes the cast are watching does not permit it.

Oh god yeah. It's basically my replacment for Harry Hill's TV Burp, another programme I greatly miss.

I've only seen it a few times but they never fail to make me laugh.

Not sure how many other people saw it, but MTV's "Strutter" was one of the funniest shows I have ever seen.

Childhood shows I use to love
Games master - That show was awesome, especially as Patrick Moore played The Games Master
Crystal Maze - Use to watch this religiously, Always wanted to be in it, The Richard 'O Brian era was the best, didn't care much for the other guy.
Robot Wars - Seems silly now but I use to record every single episode, me and a friend tried to build a robot (Which was basically a remote control car with a box over it ¬.¬), Jeremy Clarkson hosted the 1st series but Craig Charles took over after that.
