when i was 6 or 7 years old, i would stay up late and watch tv all the time. there was this one british sci-fi show that had a guy in a costume that was scary as hell to me. insane, red scary face, makes me think of the rock from fantastic 4... i think it was red dwarf but didn't that show only have 2 characters?
i love watching old british television because the format has this wavy, dreamy quality where everythings smooth,making american television sort of like a strobe light
feel free to reccomend any other british sci fi tv shows too

i also like british tv shows cause there seems to be more phases with people not talking. seems like on american drama shows that silence is not allowed, unless people are making out or shooting automatic weapons

Doctor Who - Tom Baker ones are the best
Blakes 7 - I don't remember much of this but i'd like to see it sometime
The Prisoner - amazing
Day of the Triffids - also a brilliant book and being re-made this year by the BBC
They certainly don't make TV series like these any more, the scrips were so good in those days, almost like books adapted for TV, really intelligent and deep, newer sci-fi like the new Dr Who and stuff like Torchwood, Primeval is so dumbed down for the masses its unbelievable.
For a good newish sci-fi series try Life on Mars and Ashes to Ashes
Not British sci-fi but I can't help but mention Babylon 5, it is probably the best sci-fi series I have ever watched. I don't think we will ever get a series like it again.
