The end of the dream...
And the final series of the show. Better than series six, and Penny has left, proving that she didn`t work or fit into the cast (like series 1`s Angie). The seventh Series is packed full of plenty more laughs and situations. Bungee jumps, chaotic pregnacy`s, computerisation going insane and a break out of a contagious disease all occurs in the shows final year, which will please fans but, it is much better to pick episodes from the first five series if your a new-comer to the show, to really show off the shows finest episodes and ideas, but Series 6 and 7 are still good, but you have to consider that the show goes on in these two final series without the creators and original writers of the show Andrew Norris and Richard Fergan, and without character Laura (Judy St. John), who played an important and popular role in the show.

But despite it`s losses, the seventh installment and the final series is still a joy to watch, but be warned! The ending is a bit of a dissapointment! And the show should have ended is a much different way then it did.

The set again wonderfully designed and made by Eureka Video, featuring the complete final series with extras such as the Christmas special.

One word to describe the Brittas Empire? EXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXCELLENT!!!!!!!!!!!
