Preferably a historic drama but open to whatever. Workplace situational comedy would be outta control but I sense a dearth of those

Hmmm… “A Passage to India” takes place during the Raj (which is when the Crown took over from the East India Company) but a lot of the attitudes and issues are the same

Similarly, “Conduct Unbecoming” takes place right after the Crown takeover. But hey, it’s free on youtube:

Finally, you could look here:

For the Raj period, there’s also The Jewel in the Crown. For the Company Rule period, there’s Beecham House.
