Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: British television changed radically in the new millennium. The influence of American 'quality' drama series such as The Sopranos, 24, Six Feet Under, and Mad Men - characterised by high production values, a glossy visual style and fast-paced ellicptical editing - prompted a fresh generation in programming across the pond. This book analyses these changes in British television drama production and style since 2000.
