She should use better language such as " what a nuisance " Quality. Dixon of Dock Green knows his stuff. Diana Dors is wonderful. I will watch Diana Dors films all day. Thats a quality program. As Tiswas said, this is what we pay our Television licenses for.
They speak properly.
There was a film on there last week I watched, from the 50`s-early 60`s with the singer from small faces in it called `Be My Guest`before he went into music. There was an Actress in it called Joyce Blair. She was utterly, staggeringly beautiful. I always have to google who they were and was saddened that she died.

I fell in love with this Lady the moment I saw her. I will never recover from it.

Here are a few recommendations for you as per comments on Music thread - although you'll need to dig out subtitled versions:sunlight wrote:I enjoyed her singing in the Builders Arms at the end.
Fellini:
La Strada
La Dolce Vita - you'll love this! Almost My Fair lady done fellini style.
8 and a half
..and my personal fave Amarcord which Fellini based on his own youth in Rimini during the rise of Mussolini
Faraldo:
Themroc - this has no spoken dialogue but relies on body language and grunts etc to portray an anarchic view of a man cracking up under the constraints of the routine of modern existence and slowly regressing into a caveman. Some hilarious moments to treasure.
Kurosawa:
So you've seen the Seven Samurai? The one that Hollywood later made into the Magnificent Seven? If not, do it. Well Kurosawa'a films are pretty much all huge productions with interesting stories although war is a common theme so may not be your bag, but I'd try RAN for starters
You also may like Peter Greenaway's stuff - often themed around strange relationships. unfortunately often scored by Michael Nyman but if you can get past that try A Zed and two noughts, Drowning by Numbers.
Maybe a bit too modern and possibly weird, but I reckon you're safe with anything with Mastroianni in it - lovely little stories like The Beekeeper

Tinned Toms - You know it makes sense!
Don't know if this has been mentioned already as I can't be arsed trawling through posts catching up but I watched the first couple of episodes of Gangs of London last night and I'm hooked. I love a bit of gratuitous violence every now and again.

You might like Perry Mason then although there is not a lot of violence in it. The new tv series not the very old tv series.
I would also recommend the film Seven Psychopaths.

If you want a good laugh then watch STAGED with Tennant and Sheen, it's brilliant.
Catch it on BBC player.
Perry Mason is terrible, tedious sex , violence and obnoxious charaters.
I guess there is a market for this kind of rubbish.

Well apparently some people like Mrs Brown's Boys.
No accounting for taste I guess.
