British Brevity	comment	Prime Time shows are made differently in Britain, and perhaps the biggest sign of this is season length. With few exceptions, Brits do not like Filler. In the United States, prime time showsnote Mainly the ones that air on the major networks generally run 22-24 episodes per full-length season, averaging 5-8 seasons (at least 7 if itâ€™s a sitcom). British shows, on the other hand, tend to produce only up to about thirteen episodes a year if they're dramatic, or about six if they're comedies. This also applies to most European countries and Latin America, although these mostly follow daily schedules (especially in recent years, as it has expanded to primetime) rather than weekly installments. Most Commonwealth nations also follow this model, with relatively short series being the norm on their equivalents of the BBC. There are a number of reasons for this, the simplest being that British shows usually have a fairly small creative team. It's not uncommon for one person to single-handedly write every episode of a show, as Steven Moffat did with Coupling, or David Renwick with Jonathan Creek (compare American sitcoms, which are almost always "written by committee"). The shorter working schedule means that a British show can often focus more on a tighter cast of regular characters, whereas American shows frequently have to create more of an ensemble, to allow their actors to have sufficient breaks during the long, grueling shooting schedule. British TV can also spend a year producing as much screen time as an American show produces in less than two months, resulting in a more concentrated "series" (called a "season" in the US; so a UK series can consist of 10 "series"). The unpredictable weather and long winters in the UK may be a contributory factor, as it may be difficult for production teams to commit to long filming schedules. There's more pressure to succeed, and less of a chance to make a lasting impression or develop long plot arcs. Ruin two episodes and that's a third of a season down the tubes. Some American shows that start off weak can grow their beard when the show would have long been over in the UK. On the other hand, the relatively long amount of time taken to produce such a small amount of content, and the smaller creative teams, can result in some shows which are very, very high quality throughout, even if their total number of high-quality episodes might be less than a well-received American show because of their sheer length. British shows tend to have the entire series filmed before broadcast, so shows are rarely cancelled mid-season, or affected by events like a writers' strike. Additionally, short shows are less vulnerable to dragging out way past their creative prime and Jumping the Shark. Of course, if the show is too awesome for the short time it lasts, it can leave folks starved for more. Short seasons are generally the preserve of big terrestrial channels. The downfall of smaller satellite channels can be that they need long series to fill airtime, and struggle to produce or syndicate enough content without repeating it too often. This sometimes leads to imported British shows being promoted in the USA as Mini Series, sometimes with pairs of consecutive episodes re-edited into double-length ones. British Brevity doesn't apply to every series. Soap Operas, talk shows, kids' programmes and other daytime TV can run for far more than 24 episodes a season, in the UK as elsewhere. Britain's Long-Runners include Coronation Street and Eastenders; Coronation Street alone shows 312 episodes a year. This trope, like the 24-episode US standard it contrasts with, applies mainly to scripted series in prime time and nighttime slots. Since these shows are mainly shot on soundstages, they're less affected by weather than location shoots are. The gap has also narrowed on the other side in recent years. Most cable series have seasons well under 20 episodes. Shows on streaming services such as Netflix and Amazon rarely have episode counts in the double digits for one season. Even buzzy network series (e.g. Good Girls, Evil) have been running for shorter periods. Life via cable and streaming services have also downplayed the chance of cancellation for many UK shows in recent years, leading to many of them getting long runs with several yearly seasons to compensate for their same short episode spans. Kids shows and cartoons in particular have thrived through this market compared to earlier on, and will sometimes churn out as many episodes as a US counterpart. Radio, in the 1950s and 1960s, had a number of aversions. The Goon Show clocked up about 26 episodes per series (though the final series only had 6). Others such as Hancock's Half Hour and Round the Horne ran to about 16. It often follows a Layout of a Season structure, if with half the waiting time in-between key points. Compare 12-Episode Anime. Contrast Franchise Zombie â€“ in the UK it's getting renewed that's difficult, rather than calling a halt.

Not counting numerous specials and spin off media, this totalled to 584 episodes. Even in its earliest years as strictly adaptations of The Railway Series this became problematic, with the creative team needing to ask the authors to write new books for story material as they were churning through most of the accessible ones too quickly.

The show's first two seasons were a mere 15 episodes long each; the third was 10. After that, each series from 4 to 24 was as long or longer than the preceding series, with series 19 to 24 being 48 episodes long each, airing practically year-round barring a brief summer break of as little as a couple of weeks (with no break at all between series 24 and 25). The series lengths have varied since then, but have never dipped back below 42 episodes per season. There have been several calls over the years to simply extend it to a permanent weekly slot throughout the year, thus cementing its transition into a full-blown medical soap opera, but this has yet to happen.

The only difference is that ITV was unable to produce a seventh series of Marple due to BBC's acquiring the rights for the production of Agatha Christie adaptations. Poirot, on the other hand, fared better, having been completed with all of the Hercule Poirot novels and short stories, ending with the final episode, "Curtain", on 13 November 2013.

Since then, each season was made up of two 'terms' of 10 episodes making 20 per season (or three terms in series 7 and 8 for 30 episodes). By the time it ended in 2015, the show had racked up 200 episodes over 10 series.

In those thirty plus years, there have been a grand total of five full-length instalments, only one of which was a film (though there have also been a number of >5min shorts). In addition, there was a TV series, Wallace and Gromit's World of Invention, that only lasted six episodes.

British Brevity / int_c43df4d8	comment	BBC flagship show Doctor Who. The classic run from 1963 to 1989 ran for total of 695 episodes - 696 if you want to include the 1996 TV movie as the last proper episode of the classic run; season length depended on the Doctor and the show's popularity - during the First and Second Doctor era, seasons were on average roughly 40 episodes long. Beginning with the Third Doctor, seasons were roughly 25 episodes long. When the show's popularity took a nose dive around the Sixth Doctor, seasons were cut to around 14 episodes. The Revival, which began in 2005, usually runs between 10 and 13 episodes per season, not counting the yearly Christmas Special. Technically, though, the episode count can be considered artificially-inflated if one takes each story as its own without consideration for episodes/parts, especially if a part was padded (i.e. with corridor-running) to fill out the weekly runtime. (i.e. A four-part story is one episode, another one, maybe 5-6 parts, is another, even the ten-part "The War Games" can be one.) We should point out that while the episode count shrank with the '05 run over vintage Who, the episode run time jumped from 25-ish minutes to 50, so it balanced out. However, the Thirteenth Doctor's era stays true to this trope with only 10 episodes (excluding specials) for series 11 and 12 each, which was further reduced to 6 episodes in series 13 due to the COVID pandemic.

The show is highly unusual because its hiatuses are extremely short, especially in comparison to other Netflix shows. There was a mere 2-month gap between seasons 1 and 2, another 2-month gap between seasons 2 and 3, a one month gap between seasons 3 and 4, and a two-month gap between season 4 (October 27) and the Christmas special (December 3). This all happened in the span of just one year — 2020. The show is partially produced in Ireland which is part of the United Kingdom, so it's very tangentially an example of British Brevity, even though it's also produced in the USA and has American voice actors.
