What are your top 5 TV programmes
Buy the time new zealand gets something from UK or States the rest of the world is usually on reruns, but mine are
Rosemary & Time
Monarch of the Glen
Dr Who
Lie to Me
Survivor (I know its realty TV but there is something about watching complete strangers try to get a long under unusual circumstances that appeals to me, if they ever did an international version I love to have ago myself, but the wife would probably leave me she prefers the Amazing Race)
The Good Life is above all as true British Comedy but we don't get that here anymore Shame

Our remote ancestors said to their mother Earth, "We are yours."
Modern humanity has said to Nature, "You are mine."
The Green Man has returned as the living face of the whole earth so that through his mouth we may say to the universe, "We are one."

Re: What are your top 5 TV programmes
CSI
CSI New York
HFW's River cottage series
Antiques Road Show
Never mind the Buzzcocks
I'm out of work at present and so have discovered the joys of day time TV. Sixty minute make over is a hoot - it's so badly done. I also rather like Come Dine With Me - people can be so funny!

Let us be lovely
And let us be kind
Let us be silly and free
It won't make us famous
It won't make us rich
But damn it how happy we'll be!

Re: What are your top 5 TV programmes
QI - very funny and I always learn something
True Blood - at the end of every episode, OH and I both go "oooOOOoooo". Grippin' stuff
House - love to hate him.
Frasier - never fails to make me laugh, even when I've seen it several times before
Life on Mars - don't you just love Gene Hunt? I follow someone using that name on Twitter. He's so funny

Re: What are your top 5 TV programmes
In no particular order, (again)
Have I Got News For You
QI
Mock The Week (yes, we love Frankie too, bud Ed Burns is a close second)
Mastermind
Timeteam
Having listed the above, I have to add that I wouldn't loose any sleep if I never saw these programmes again. If I didn't have access to BBC News Channel however, I'd be lost, but 'the news' isn't really a programme is it?

Re: What are your top 5 TV programmes
Wouldn't it be great if there was a tv channel for self-sufficient types that only had really useful info/inspirational type programmes
But not Shortland Street
Trashy New Zealand soap opera
