I'd say Monty Python if comedy skit shows were allowed. Otherwise, the Prisoner has to be the cream of British dramas. Did anyone mention Danger Man or the Saint (pre James Bond Roger Moore)? Danger Man was repackaged in the states as Secret Agent Man. They even used the Johnny Rivers hit as the theme song.
I don't think they showed the earlier Avengers series in the states. ABC picked up the Patrick MacNee-Diana Rigg version. That was a cool duo.

Ha-ha. Nope, just like Jimi Hendrix didn't sing,'Scuse' me while I kiss this guy.'

"Secret Asian Man" ! Those misunderstandings make for much more interesting lyrics, don't they? Somewhere in Atom Heart Mother, a guy says "Silence in the studio" in a distorted voice. So distorted that I couldn't quite work out what it was, so I opted for "Giants in wisteria," even though I knew I was probably wrong.And Blimey! "Danger Man" is really old, but I certainly enjoyed it as a kid. It was quite clever the way Patrick McGoohan built on the earlier character in creating Number Six without making any explicit connection at all. Quote:
