The last TV DVDs that I bought were Keeping Up Appearances The Essential Collection, The Green Green Grass series 2 & 3 plus Doctor Who Legacy Collection featuring Shada plus a 30th anniversary documentary shown on BBC2 in Sept 1993. I got these yesterday. 
Troubled store HMV has got a month long blue cross sale on. Apart from the Dr Who release, the rest of the DVDs I got, are part of that with 25% off each.
It's great because I got the KUA box set for £15. I had a look on amazon earlier and the lowest it is being sold for on there, so far is £18.50. I certainly got a bargain. The box set has got 8 discs too!

I love them! I took them back home to America to watch on my Laptop and got my old thug of a Grandaddy watching them too.
Can anyone recommend any old shows like this? Being a 20 year old American I don't get all the references but I enjoy them anyway
Some Mothers Do 'Ave 'Em. It's so funny with accident prone Frank Spencer and his wife Betty. I found the Best of DVD in a charity shop last week. It features 5 full episodes.
Steptoe & Son, Bless This House & Porridge.
I have the two boxsets you have as well. I never tire watching them. :cool:
Oh! It's so lovely to read that you're really enjoying these VERY british comedies. Only Fools is my most favourite thing ever! I would recommend One Foot In The Grave, and Jonathan Creek, The Likely Lads and Rising Damp. One thing I would say all these shows have in common is they all have real warmth and a protagonist you really care deeply for. I love that! You could even watch something more recent like Men Behaving Badly, or Father Ted. Both great!
As for the subject of the thread, the last uk tv dvd I bought was Getting On series 3, really great!

Love my old comedies, beats anything they have on nowadays, apart from Miranda, and The InBetweeners
That's one of those kids TV shows that belongs firmly in the category of "Far too good for the little barstewards"
Doctor Who Legacy box set.
Call the Midwife (series 1. Will get the Christmas special when the price comes down a bit)
The Paradise (series 1)
Death in Paradise (series 1)
South Riding
Return to Cranford
Horrible Histories (series 1 -3)

We already have most of the great old comedies which other posters have mentioned on DVD, as my husband is an avid fan of shows like On The Buses, Last of the Summer Wine and Only Fools and Horses.
golden girls series 3
Grandma's House S2.
They were presents for others but I'll probably try and borrow them frequently

Breaking Bad x 4 series. Ditto
Curb Your Enthusiasm x first 4 series. Ditto
So much to look forward to but I've loads recorded on Sky still to watch. CBB taking up too much time.
