"I know about he only one tale"??? Maybe "I only know about one of his stories"?

and "Do you know that story?"

It would be https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Last_Question

You mention UK English in your original message. Do you want some suggestions for UK SF series?

I second gio73's recommendation of "The Expanse". It's one of the best things I've seen for years. It's American, FYI.

The miniseries and the first two seasons of the rebooted "Battlestar Galactica" are also very good. You can pretend seasons 3 and 4 do not exist. This is also an American series.

"Black Books" is a very good UK series but is not SF.

"Sapphire and Steel" is UK and somewhere between SF and very very strange. However, it's not what any normal person would call fast-paced.

If you want UK stuff and police type shows are ok you could try "Cracker" and "Happy Valley".

Too many mistakes :( I’m a poor boy. Ok seriously I need to refresh the grammar. Thank you a lot for correct my mistakes. I have “practical english usage” by Swan. You think is a good book?

Yes I’m interested in UK english, if you know please suggest me sone UK SF series or movie.

I know Asimov was An atheist but one of his stories talk about a computer built by the humans, that computer is made for answer a simple question “God exist?” And in the end affer many years of developed of that computer, it can answer the question. I’ve heard that story from Paolo Bonolis XD

Swan is magnificent. I was about to suggest it to you but I clearly don't need to.

"Do you think this is a good book?". You need to revise how to ask questions, I think.

no "the" before "grammar". "refresh" should probably be "revise". "for correcting".

"if I know"?

"suggest me" sounds unnatural to me. Just "suggest" is probably preferable. But "Would you suggest some series or movies?" still sounds a bit strange. Hmm. "What would you suggest?" "Do you have any recommendations?". That sort of thing?

If you want to come to Big Mathsjam you should probably get a passport as soon as possible. It can take a while, and you don't want to be spending money on flights if you don't have one. The MJ ticket itself is harmless enough as MJ gives refunds.
