Back From the Dead... Gordon Brittas Returns!!!
After been crushed to death at the end of the last series, Gordon Brittas was rejected from haven after driving the saints insane and was sent back down to Earth back to Whitbury to fulfil his dream of uniting the world through leisure!.

Dramatic changes to the series start here. Firstly, creators of the show and writers of the first five series of the show Richard Fergan and Andrew Norris, have lefted the show sadly. So has The character Laura played by Julie St. John who is a truely missed character. The unpleasant and unpopular Penny arrives, to replace the loss of powerful popular character Laura, but Penny just is a far to thin character to last the rest of the Brittas journey (details in Series 7 review).

And so, despite the show really suppose to end at the end of Series 5, with everything drawn to a close and killing off the main Character, the show goes on, in a slghtly more light hearted style and of one changing the sitcom`s structure slightly (Which isn`t a good thing) but the series is still good, packed full of laughs and poured full of great jokes and situations as always!. The last episode of this one, is a bit weak, but overall series six is great.

The series is featured on a double disc set with extras including out-takes from series 4 and a gallery and more!.

Another great series in another great boxset!.
