What are the little boxes outside english houses?
Answers:
I think you are refering to alarm boxes as you said. I've not seen a gas or electricity box yellow i must say. Are you sure you haven't seen sensors around the houses, they are fairly discreet and wouldn't be massively obvious on a professionally filmed tv programme. Another reason may simply be that the owner of the house has taken the sensors out.

The Brits are very considerate of leprechauns, who walk over from Ireland, and provide these temporary shelters for them, much as we have birdhouses.
Suggestion boxes. We're constantly wondering how we can make ourselves more appealing to the Americans.
if it is sittung on the porch, it's probably a milk box. Once common in the United States but very rare now, fresh milk was delivered right to your front porch by the milkman!
the little white boxes on the out side of English houses contain meters for measuring the usage of gas and electricity for that house hold for billing purposes . this saves time for the meter reader by not having to depend on the house holder not being at home to allow access to the internal property. unfortunately not all hones have theses boxes as some do have internal meters for utility's .
If they are little and high up they could be Cable boxes something to do with cable tv
Oh they are alarms alright...and you ought to hear the noise they make when an intruder trys to enter the house...It would waken the dead. Great little boxes they are.
If they are high up they are alarms. Just bellboxes. If low then might be meters. I'm guessing alarms as you said higher.
The movement sensors are inside the house. They only go off if somone breaks in so naturally you can't see the sensors :)
They will be alarms.
TV programmes aren't going to show you where all the sensors are because they don't want to be responsible for the house getting broken into.
Some of them may even be fake alarm boxes. It makes it look like the house has an alarm, but in reality it doesn't.
