I'm feelin' the pinch too, given that I just bought almost $200 worth of BBC DVDs. XD;;;;;;;
I got Elizabeth R, which I remember from my childhood; The Forsyte Saga (and not the recent remake, but the original one which basically sparked the creation of Masterpiece Theater; The Six Wives of Henry VIII with Keith Michell, because I am a Tudor freak and also it has the ineffable Patrick Troughton (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patrick_Troughton) in; and the complete series of Coupling, which is basically like Friends but way raunchier and actually funny.
