A great series. This set does not include the last 2 part reunion show, which was produced by PBS and not the BBC. It does contain the clip show where Jean and Lionel remember the events from the show.

Are the two clips on Amazon representative of the humor throughout the series?

I'd say "it depends". My wife loves this one but I'm kind of "meh" on it. Not that it's "bad" but just not as much my taste. I like most British series I've seen while my wife - no so much. This one is a slower romantic comedy type program - which is why I don't much care for it. I don't dislike it, it's just that I'll pick something else before this one most of the time. That said, I'll be getting a copy for my wife and will watch it with her on occasion. I've been waiting on this one to get in a more reasonable price range for a very long time.

It's a decent show...humor can be kind of dry and nothing like Mr. Bean or Fawlty Towers but it's an OK show.
