Ooh, you could just about get away with thatOf Funerals & Fish (is a pilot a special Mr Ferret?)
"Teeeechnically" the Pilot is an episode of the BBC Comedy Playhouse series, not LotSW! so if you exclude it, you get to pick an extra favourite!Ooh, you could just about get away with that![]()
Sorry to be pedantic but From The Directors Chair is Alan Bell's book, Andrew Vines book is just Last Of The Summer Wine so not sure which rule book you're usingWell, I’m now classing a special as defined in the From The Director’s Chair book by AV.
I think I may be taking this a bit too seriously but you have to have rules![]()
Ahem …..both!Sorry to be pedantic but From The Directors Chair is Alan Bell's book, Andrew Vines book is just Last Of The Summer Wine so not sure which rule book you're using![]()

1.Whoops
2.Crums
3.Uncle of the Bride
4. Getting Sam Home
5. I was a Hitman for Primrose Dairies [because I had to badger UKTV with countless mails before they conceded they had made a mistake and eventually screened the episode . Initially they said that they would not show Christmas specials out of season because people did not appreciate seeing them during summer months so I pointed out yes it was broadcast on New Years Eve but wasn't a Christmas episode and by omitting it you don't see how Hobbo joined the group . In they end they said there was a mistake with the distributors and the episode had been omitted from their download and so it appeared in the next iteration of the run through the series]

Well, I would probably have:
A Merry Heatwave (Contrary to what some people think, I treat that as a special as it is Christmas themed)
Small Tune on a Penny Wassail
Crums
The Man who nearly knew Pavorotti
A Leg Up for Christmas
Wether it was a special or not is a point that has confused alot of people, including myself.I think it was Big Unc who pointed out that A Merry Heatwave ran for 35 minutes, so that can definitely be considered as a Christmas Special in my book.
It is confusing because it appears part way through a series.
You sound like Inspector BlakeI’m just going from if they are listed as specials in the Alan Bell book. Usually single Christmas episodes or extended or stand alone episodes.
