Before the 6th Series started airing in January 1982 there was a Christmas Special in December 1981 and after it ended there was another in December 1982. In the US the Christmas Specials actually came on a separate DVD with 2 other Christmas Specials. I'm sure they packaged them like that so they wouldn't have to have a second disc for each series and they can sell it separately. In the US the 6th series comes packed with the 7th series on two discs. In Britain they package series 5 & 6 together, with the corresponding Christmas Specials, in a three disc set. I'm still enjoying the series so I'll continue to get them from the library. They have DVDs through 1999 but not the 2000 and 2001 releases.
