Thanks for a great reaction. I'd quite forgotten how funny and brilliant this series was. I have to have some agreements to the other comments here. You asked whether Anna would be a recurring character. She wasn't. However, the way this series was done means that there are some events and character introductions that lay important context into the fabric of the show. Most comedy shows can be watched in any order, episodes can be skipped etc. This was a much richer series. I'm not sure whether you missed the two episodes mentioned out of error or perhaps the service you are getting them from have missed some but the way this series was typically structured is that there was a 'special' feature length Christmas episode between each season. At the end of season 5 and before season 6, there are 3 specials and after season 7, it was just a series of yearly specials before the show wrapped up. This really culminates in some very important events and gives a complete picture of what the show was. If you are really enjoying this show & don't want to be left wondering who such and such a character is or why a certain subject is being discussed, it's worth trying to see them in the correct order (a full breakdown can be found here, for context: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Only_Fools_and_Horses_episodes). Please note that there are spoilers but you don't have to read the synopsis. If, on the other hand, you plan is to just skim watch through it, then fine. Either way I'm hugely enjoying your reactions to these.

Also missing is the 1985 Christmas special, “To Hull and Back,” which comes after the last episode of season 4. Both of these stories are missing on your Patreon. Is this a mistake or were you not able to obtain these two episodes?
