I found a treasure trove of old British dramas on Youtube....
For all who love Masterpiece Theater on PBS, here are shows from the 60s, 70s and 80s.
I am currently watching To Serve Them All My Days. There's the Forsyte Saga, The Citadel, My Cousin Rachel and tons more series.

(22,610 posts)after that I will watch this by the same author: R. F. Delderfield. A Horseman Riding By. I like these post war stories. THen I'm just going to start digging through them. I love period dramas and war stories.
Forsyte Sage is on my list (it's 27 episodes!!). I loved the adaptation they did about 10 years or so ago.

Reminded me to go look for The Duchess of Duke Street, which was one of my favorites.
