Let me throw a little more into the mix. We also absolutely LOVE "As Time Goes By." It reminds us of us. Not the premise but the attitudes and verbiage. We liked it so much we bought the entire series.
We're in Southern Florida for the winter and the Miami station, in addition to Vicar, Time and "Keeping up Appearances", also has "Are You Being Served".
As far as Australia goes, as a child, I started reading Neville Shute. He emigrated from England after the war but wrote most of his books about England. He did write a few about Australia. Anyway, he became my favorite writer and still is one of my favorites. I have every book he wrote, I think, and movies of the two that were made.
I picked up the term,"bloody" reading him and use it to this day.
