 @683562c3 I watched Spaced a few years ago and it was still not awful! There was a great joke on the Good Place when Tehani is showing Eleanor a British sitcom: “It's Deirdre and Margaret. It ran for 16 years on the BBC. They did nearly 30 episodes.” 
 @bb1a99d2 Sounds about right. Check out the episode count and dates for Detectorists. That’s very British in its cadence. (Also, despite one or two wobbles, really lovely. Highly recommended if you’ve not seen it.) 
 @683562c3 I tried desparately to watch the first episode and was squicked out repeatedly. Too intentionally awkward. And I love Toby!
