One of the things I miss most about the U.K. is political TV, and I have one of those little gadgets, which means I can download British programmes illegally - that's why it's a guilty pleasure.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
We have to take risks in British television. It has to stop playing to the lowest common denominator and patronising people.
In Britain you're more used to challenging drama. In America, TV is just boring, and numbing, and bloody terrible.
The U.K. and the U.S. are very different countries, and it really shows in the television.
I miss the BBC when I'm away. I'm away so much that it's a pleasure just walking back through the door and sitting on the sofa to watch some rubbish TV.
For a little while there, I was thinking, 'I don't want to be in anything on British TV'. I didn't watch any of it because it was rubbish.
And I grew up watching all the British ones so when you hear that from an early age, it makes it much easier than you guys who don't grow up with Australian television or British television.
One thing about television in Britain is that they're so scared about complaints. It curbs a lot of drama.
Why do British people make such good TV? It's so annoying. Stop it. Is it because they have free health care? Uggh.
The BBC can be infuriating at times but I love it with a passion.
I don't watch much British television at all. I mean, it's ironic because I used to work in it for years.
