Average customer review:Product Description
The exploits of irascible retiree Victor Meldrew continue in Season Six and he fights misfortune, misadventure and sheer bad luck that life just loves to throw at him. The grim reaper finally gets to Victor Meldrew. He may not arrive in the form of a strangely-shaped unordered parcel, as a workman with the intellect of an orangutan, or even as Meldrew-fixated ex-neighbor Patrick, but he better be prepared to listen: Victor might have a few complaints to make!

Sadly Disappointed With Edited Version
As a fan of the series as it was broadcast on Public Television, I was greatly disappointed at this version of the final episode. My favorite scenes have been altered from the broadcast version. The cabaret scene from Victor's reunion has been completely cut, and the final song used has been substituted with an insturmental selection. I can only assume that these changes were made for legal reasons, as the cabaret performers are still listed in the closing credits. I deducted 4 stars because I was so happy to be able to own the series and feel betrayed. Can you believe it?!
Missing episodes? I don't believe it!!!
My wife and I simply love this program but we were disappointed to see that some content was altered and some of the episodes were missing.
Also it would seem that the BBC stiffed us on a special or two...at the very least they could make these available for purchase.
Still we consider this to be the the funniest program ever to grace TV and there is a little of Victor Meldrew in all of us.
Final Season: Great!
Produced five years after Season 5, this 2000 series chronicles the further misadventures of Victor Meldrew. Not much changed after 5 years: Victor remains eternally unhappy and hilarious. The final episode ends the series for good on a bizarre note--I won't give it away here.
This Series 6 Set includes a retrospective documentary about the series as one of the few supplements.
