[QUOTE="Angela Channing, post: 285144, member: 33"] I think I read somewhere there were difficulties getting TV studios to commit to making a full series so they made episodes on a more [I]ad hoc [/I]basis and at the time they were all billed as "specials" or to return to a previous discussion, they could be considered to be individual TV movies. I guess when they came to release them on DVD they lumped them all together as one season for marketing purposes but they never really were commissioned, filmed or broadcast collectively as a season.
