And this thread is because I know I'm forgetting something...
Pre-90's you've got loads of stuff, going back through Doctor Who and Quatarmass and all that shizzle, but the 90's seems a bit of a bleak zone for random British telly.
You've got loads of brilliant American shows starting up in the later part of the decade. Brilliant stuff like the X-Files and Buffy, both of which are truly brilliant telly.
Britain seems to be lacking around that period. I suppose I'm talking more mid-late 90's. I don't really remember the early 90's as I was a bit young.
The one exception to this is Neverwhere (1996 I think), written by Neil Gaiman. Awesome, but it was only 6eps long, and they really fucked up on the filming quality. It does star Johnson from Peep Show, which adds bonus points.
But yeah, were there any good mid-late nineties good random British TV shows?

Ooops, I should have said that I've seen pretty much all of Morris/Iannucci's back catalogue.
