Some more elusive UK comedy. This time from the early 00's. All three had a star that later became part of the Benidorm cast and all three shows featured several big names (at least they're big names today).
Breeze Block was about the Breeze family who resided in a lovely tower block. Tim Healey starred as Ralph Breeze, but the rest of the family was played by actors not as well known (although Craig Heaney played a son and just prior to this show had been a regular in the large cast of Band Of Brothers), however other cast members included Ashley Jensen, Mark Benton, Jill Halfpenny and I recall seeing Denise Welch (Healey's wife at the time), Tom Goodman-Hill, Ross Noble......
Doctors + Nurses had an impressive cast with Adrian Edmondson, Mina Anwar, David Mitchell, Geoff McGivern, Abigail Cruttenden, Joanna Scanlon, Susan Earl (Hardware, Reggie Perrin), Steven Alvey (Beast, The Brief, Loved By You). The 6th episode of this is very messed-up. The audio is fine but the video is just sort of a photo every couple of seconds but it's watchable if you enjoy this. Maybe someday a good quality recording will surface. Also, some of the other episodes have audio that is slightly out of sync here and there. I did my best to line it up.
Nathan Barley starred Nicholas Burns, Julian Barratt, Richard Ayoade, Rhys Thomas, Claire Keelan, Ben Whishaw. Some other people turn up in this like Benedict Cumberbatch, Julia Davis, Kevin Eldon, Noel Fielding.
