British television lovers!

Here on Tellyspotting, you’ll find news and perspective on UK comedy, drama and mystery, in addition to the history, back stories and people behind those programs.

Bill Young launched Tellyspotting on Oct. 1, 2009. As Vice President of Television Programming at North Texas Public Broadcasting station KERA, he has great access and opportunity to evaluate much of the British TV catalog for possible broadcast to American PBS audiences.

Tellyspotting goes beyond what airs on KERA or even PBS, however. You can expect updates, reports and commentary on shows by BBC, ITV, Netflix and other sources, as well as classic TV.

We’ll even cover British film, radio and literature from time to time.
