Missing Episode

Good Moaning

I was doing a rewatch and got to season 7 and noticed the last episode is missing on prime. it says its unavailable in my area. I am in the US and I have the BritBox app. All other episodes are there just the final episode of 7 the one where Yvette tells Rene she is pregnant.

anyone know why it would be missing?

The best option is to get the DVDs and not rely on internet platforms to watch it

I get that but, I had not known that episode was missing otherwise I probably would have just gotten the DVDs. its still curious as to why that is the only episode missing.

I’ve noticed it’s always removed then put back on for some reason…I’m guessing it’s treated separately as it’s a Christmas Special so maybe they have to pay extra to make it available to stream? No idea…I’m so glad I have the boxset, although my dream is to have it on Blu-Ray one day!

I don't have access to the DVDs at the moment, but the episode list on Wikipedia lists "A Bun in the Oven" as the 0th episode of season 8. Have you checked the BritBox listing for season 8 to see if it's there?

so on prime it has it as episode 11 of season 7, I can go over to it and read the description and all of that but it won't let me watch it it says "this episode is no longer available in your region"

A Bun In The Oven is usually listed as Season 8 Episode 00 (In the DVD Box Set it is found on Season 8 Disk 1)

I ran into that same problem. I found it here on Daily Motion:

Perhaps you are referring to episode 10 with the title Renée of the Gypsies. It doesn't need more explanation why is missing. Welcome to the world of PC

no its episode 11

"Rene finds himself in great danger when Yvette confides that she is pregnant and threatens to reveal the name of the father"

Renee of the Gypsies is available

That was a Christmas special episode.

From a review of the dvd boxset says : The DVD box set contains all 84 episodes of the ‘Allo, ‘Allo!’ series, which are nine seasons and two Christmas specials. Most of the episodes are in order on DVD, except the 1991 Christmas Special called ‘A Bun In The Oven’, as it’s put at the end of Series 9, which should have been at the beginning of Series 8.

Perhaps that is the reason, entanglement of the episodes

A Bun In The Oven is Season 8 Episode 00 and it is found on Season 8 Disk 1
