"You Rang M'Lord"
"In Loving Memory"
Do you mean T.V series or do you want to watch old 1930s films?

I really recommend Mapp & Lucia, based on the books by EF Benson and starring Prunella Scales, Geraldine McEwan and the one who played Sir Humphrey in Yes Minister.

Set in a small seaside town, it is about the rivalry between Mapp & Lucia to be the 'queen' of local society.

Was on channel 4 in the eighties, available on dvd.
