The Best C4 Drama Series Ever

[Badger Kitten]

As promised...

 

[Badger Kitten]

A round up of some C4 hits here.

I haven't watched much C4 drama, I realise. Skins, Shameless leave me cold, as do the IT crowd. Lipstick on your collar was good though.

 

[DaveCinzano]

Traffik best drugs chain drama series ever made by Channel 4
The Camomile Lawn Jennifer Ehle, Tara Fitzgerald, lots of upper-middles boning in wartime, what's not to like?

 

[sim667]

I really like shameless and skins..... both programs remind a lot of people i know/knew though.....

 

[Stoat Boy]

Traffik.

 

[Badger Kitten]

More C4 drama.

Wish I'd seen The Devil's whore.

 

[Orang Utan]

Brookside
but if you count acquisitions:
Berlin Alexanderplatz
Sopranos
6 Feet Under

 

[QueenOfGoths]

Traffik - thought this was absolutely brilliant. Wonderful performances and a thought provoking narrative. Bought the DVD a little while ago and am going to revisit it

[Orang Utan]

More C4 drama.

Wish I'd seen The Devil's whore.

Massively cheating.

 

[Badger Kitten]

I don't think US imports count. I meant drama made by C4.

Otherwise the West Wing would mince it.

 

[Orang Utan]

Massively cheating.

c4 never made any drama series, so not cheating really

no drama has ever been made by c4.
only right to reply and the first few years of t4 were ever made by c4

 

[DaveCinzano]

Never Never was quite good, about a debt collector-turned-credit union man on a grim London estate (Joh n Simm, Sophie Okonedo)
Not a drama series, but Tina Goes Shopping and Tina Takes A Break I thought were really rather enjoyable (Kelli Hollis oh my)

 

[Badger Kitten]

Oh well, commissioned by them, then.

rather than being an import bought in.

 

[Flashman]

The Mahabharata.

 

[butchersapron]

What was that trot-hunting one with citizen smith?

 

[Orang Utan]

red riding or traffik then

gbh

 

[Flashman]

Was Jake's Progress on 4? That was good.

 

[butchersapron]

gbh

That's him, good perf by RL but the thing itself was dire (im my memory, tbf)

 

[upsidedownwalrus]

GBH would be mine. Absolutely superb.

 

[upsidedownwalrus]

I disagree.

 

[butchersapron]

I disagree.

Well, it's been a long while since i saw it, and i may well be looking theough sectarian galasses, but the drama itslef seemed pointlessly black and white and cliched, a small good man being ground down and so on. (as i said, long time since i saw it, so it might well be me simplifying it).

 

[belboid]

It's

A Very British Coup

Simple as that. Next

 

[belboid]

gbh

simplistic, reactionary, dishonest, shite

Simple as that. Next

Centrist nonsense.

(never actually watched it)

 

[Orang Utan]

That's him, good perf by RL but the thing itself was dire (im my memory, tbf)

yeah, saw it again recently and understood the politics of it a bit better - it's all rather ludicrous and faintly embarrassing

 

[London_Calling]

The Long Good Friday?

Sexy Beast*?




* first half only

 

[belboid]

are films, not series'

(& LGF was made before C4 was even thought of)
