Hi me again, last one about Duty Free i promise,
This box set contains all three series, including the special feature length christmas episode.
This was released as a box set in 2004
This was the last we were to see of the 1980's package holiday series,
The character are still the same, but just to recap, incase you haven't read my other reviews about this series, ( i know they are not fantastic, but i'm trying )
Anyway the characters:
David - Keith Barron Amy - Gwen Taylor Linda - Joanne Van gyseghem Robert - Neil Stacy
This box set edition lasts for approx 9 hours and 22 minutes, so you really need time to watch it, or just watch it an episode at a time.
Setting - the San Rimo i here you cry, well not this time not for the last episode which was a feature length, they decided to go upmarket, as it was christmas,
A Duty Free Christmas
You have guessed it, David and Amy decide to get away, and stay in a posh hotel, but David books a room,
As David and Amy were sitting having a drink guess who they see, ..... yes you have guessed right Robert and Linda, who have gone to this quiet hotel to spend Christmas with other distinguished guests, and relax in the tranquility of the surroundings.
Well..........that's what they think, until Amy decides to hold a party, and gets the children carol singing, and starts to decorate the hotel, and is making a show of herself but after all it is Christmas, and isn't that what your supposed to do at this time of year?
anyway you can guess what happens, David and Linda are at it again, David buying expensive gifts for Linda, but Amy finding them and changing them for very cheap tat.( how embarrassed he looks )
but i don't want to spoil it for you, is is the best way to end a very good series, but all i'm going to say is that the ones kissing under the mistletoe isn't David and Linda, you will be very suprised who it is after everything that has gone on, over the three series.

I see you've posted this as a DVD review, but you've not mentioned the DVD. Are there any extras? If so, what are they and are they any good? If you add to this, or if you change it to be posted as a "Film Only" review, please let me know and I'll re-rate.
