About Us
Ryan is a 48-year old American living in Seattle. He became a fan of
British television during the Monty Python invasion of the early 1970s.
In 1993 he moved to London for a year just so he could see British
television first-hand. Since moving back to the States sixteen years
ago he has continued to keep up on British TV by trading tapes back and
forth. In the late 1990s he worked three years for About.com as
their British TV Guide and has been interviewed twice by BBC
Radio. Listen to a live interview of him from the news show PM on
Radio 4 in 2007 when BBC America canceled Benny Hill. He has written over 1100 British TV reviews over the years, you can read them all here.
Chrissy has been a British TV fan since the early 80s. Growing up in the
1970s she remembers when her relatives would watch shows such
as Monty Python and Upstairs Downstairs
on PBS. Her interest was piqued when she got cable TV in the 80s
when networks like A&E and MTV would import British TV shows to
fill their schedules. She is a big fan of stand up comedians, and
her favorite actors include Marc Warren, Lesley Sharp and Lee Ingleby, and she follows British politics just so
she'll get all the jokes on Have I Got News For You. Check out her YouTube channel featuring many Eddie Izzard clips.
