OK, so I'm English, and we have, as you know, a different system. For instance, what is a one-hour show on US TV will run 45 minutes on commercial TV here and 30 on the BBC.

Disregarding the streaming services (which are used differently by people here anyway), we do get American prgrammes over here, of course.

However, we get few sitcoms (which are out of fashion here) we mostly get cop shows such as the NCIS franchise, Blue Bloods and so on. We also used to get Hawaii Five-O, the CSI franchise and Criminal Minds. All reasonably high-quality, to be fair.

Our home-grown stuff also includes police dramas such as the long-running Vera and the critically-acclaimed Line of Duty, as well as Silent Witness. We have all those superb David Attenborough wildlife documentaries as well as much in a similar vein. Our 'reality' programming can be quite different, involving as it does 'fly-on-the-wall' stuff such as Inside the Tower of London, Secrets of the Museum and series centring on behind-the-scenes life at other historical or cultural sites. There is always some kind of historical or archaeological documentary going on as well. Then the 'small' programmes such as The Repair Shop or Susan Calmans' Grand Days Out, (a hyperactive stand-up comedian touring holiday destinations in a camper van called 'Helen Mirren' - what's not to love?) which have their loyal followings.

We get a lot of game and quiz shows, some of which do actually provide a challenge. The Chase, Pointless, Mastermind, University Challenge and the mind-twisting Only Connect.

Then we have the typically-British stuff such as Downton Abbey, The Great British Bake-Off (aka The Great British Baking Show), Doctor Who and the indefinable QI.

I suspect we do a little better over here.
