I’ve been watching a BBC series called Death in Paradise, and it struck me as having an unusual number of really good looking people, for British TV that is. My no doubt biased perception has been that beauty is practically mandatory for Hollywood actors, but the Brits were far more accommodating to actors who look like normal humans.
Is the BBC succumbing to Hollywood beauty standards? Is the series an exception because of its exotic Caribbean location?
And where can I find more BBC eye candy?
OT, but we’ve been watching Death in Paradise, too. Saw the first episode of the third season today. 
Nice to see Cat has evolved further, too.
Benny Hill
Which should NOT be confused with Benny Hinn when you are watching late night cable and you want a good laugh.
The Avengers.
In My Life I have Never wanted to drive an Old Bentley.
cough …Diana Rigg? cough
cough … cat suit…? cough
Right. Where are the keys, then…?
I just started watching this show this week! Definitely a good number of good looking people of both sexes.
We’re in the exact same place. I just watched the same episode on Netflix today.
Do reality shows count? I vote for Channel 5’s Big Brother UK (2015).
Which means we can’t discuss it here. 
As to the OP, I don’t think it has that many more beautiful people. Granted Camille and her mother are stunning, but there are plenty of more average looking people. Even the movie star in one of the episodes does not have movie star looks.
If you include the cars, definitely.
I think it’s a bit like air hostesses. was a time when it was the preserve of glam 20-something dollies but not so much now …
I used to be quite a fan of Silent Witness, and by the time it got melodramatically crap, it had an unfeasibly large number of rather gorgeous people on it, including Emilia Fox and Tom Ward.
I don’t necessarily discount that there may be a connection between these two facts…
Isn’t this just wannabe actresses, childrens tv presenters, models (who are also/or) sociapaths?
There’s a UK dating show Take me out, but if you want clever comedy and good-looking people, look no further than Coupling.
Coupling is written by Steven Moffat (Dr. Who!) and has Sarah Alexander (swoon!)
UFO:
IIRC, there was also an accidental bare bum shot in one episode. :oCurrently on Masterpiece–Poldark. (The new version.) Lovely Cornish landscapes/seascapes. And Aidan Turner…
And I just realized The Jewel In The Crown is streaming on Netflix. Highly intelligent–and Charles Dance back when he was The Thinking Woman’s Bit of Crumpet.
Hell, the original Poldark! The women in that series were gorgeous, and I never met a woman who didn’t think Robin Ellis was incredibly hot!
Have to agree with the “new” Poldark. However, I am not complaining about Aiden Turner shirtless.
One thing I very much like about British TV is no one (usually) looking like supermodels. It makes it so much better, in my opinion. Far more believable.
I watched Ep 1 of Season 3 yesterday, too, and
I DID NOT LIKE WHAT HAPPENED!!!
I loved the first two seasons, and I was completely blindsided. Dang.
Re the OP: the lady cop is definitely gorgeous.
My current fave is Andrea Lowe of DCI Banks. Very Susannah York-ish.
Call the Midwife has a mix of women of various ages and looks. Some maybe hired for their looks, but a good attempt at diversity in that department.
