Now Callan is a show I could easily get back into... the acting was quality and Edward Woodward's portrayal was most exellent.
Mum and her new hubby are currently watching reruns of the Onedin Line back in the UK, so who knows, maybe the ABC here might run it again. As I recall, it was a decent seafaring drama, but it has been a long time and a refresh wouldn't go astray, given the high level of tripe being served up as television today.
As for Press Gang, well I never got into that, though I see your pinup girl, Julia Sawalha, was in it. For mine, she never got/gets enough airtime in Ab Fab... yeah, I like her, too.
I saw a few episode of Sandbaggers and I recall quite liking it, but I seem to recall it clashing with something the 1st missus liked to watch... meaning I missed out if I didn't want to miss out.
Some Brit comedies I liked..
