Our library never got it. I had read some of the content online, but the whole thing was just overwhelming. And it can’t have gotten any better there over the last 15 years.

It’s not like “Midsomer Murders” at all!

My wife and I love that television series. I usually get her a set of the DVDs each time a present is due, then we get to spend a few hours watching them together. Don't tell her English villages aren't really like that, I'm fairly sure she plans on retiring to Badger's Drift.

If you're looking for more British depression, there's The Abolition of Britain by Peter Hitchens. I picked up a copy at Goodwill. I think the original owner must have died; there was a (personal) library's-worth of historical and political non-fiction, and another customer and I were pawing through them greedily. He was scooping up the British ones, and I was taking the Mideastern, but he did cede me that one on request.
