I have to say that when it came to choosing my top 5 TV series it was very tough. I love to binge watch a good series and often re-watch them many times. However, I finally managed to narrow it down. I have also just realised that they are all BBC series. So in no particular order...
Downton Abbey
I love a good historical drama and Downton Abbey is definitely one of my favourites. It tells the story of an aristocratic family and their servants from 1912 to 1926. It covers a variety of issues and tells many people's stories. I have to say that I enjoyed the first two series the most, but I do enjoy the programme as a whole.
Life on Mars/Ashes to Ashes
I had to put these together as the fit together with Ashes to Ashes being the spin off to Life on Mars. They are both equally as good. Life on Mars is about Sam Tyler, a police officer who goes into a coma after being hit by a car. He finds himself having to adjust to a 1970s world of policing. Ashes to Ashes is a similar story apart from it tells the story of Alex Drake who was shot in 2008 and is transported to 1980s London as she fights to survive the coma she is in. I don't really know why I love this series so much, but I think it reminds me of being younger. I started to watch this series when I was around 12 and it was the first TV series that I was obsessed with. I honestly have lost count of the number of times I have watched it.
Gavin & Stacey
This series is so light hearted and I love the comedy in it. It tells the story of Gavin, a boy from Essex, and Stacey, a girl from Barry in Wales. It is good series to laugh along to and it's a good series to distract you, so it's a good series for procrastinating!
The White Queen
I told you I liked a historical drama! The White Queen is all about the War of the Roses especially in Edward IV's reigns. It is all about Betrayal, court politics and rivalry. Having studied this at A-level it was good to understand it and see it in a dramatic form.
Outnumbered
Finally, Outnumbered is a comedy about a family from London and follows them as they grow up across the five series. I like the fact that it was semi-improvised as it seems that the scenes are forced. It makes it seem more real.
Thanks For Stopping By! :)
