She's Going: 'uhhhh...uhhhhh'

The standard of series 6 is so high that anything less than brilliant tends to stand out a bit, especially as Sickness and Wealth sits between two cracking episodes.

This episode isn't brilliant, but it is certainly very good.

Calm down......Aubrey.

Del is suffering from pains in his guts, the Yuppy lifestyle of cigars and cocktails is ruining his health, even when sick he sees an opportunity to make a few quid.

It's a very good episode, it's perhaps the weakest of series six, but the standard is so incredibly high, in any other series this would be the high point.

Plenty of funny moments, the seance with Elsie Partridge is a great moment, Del's appointment with The GP is great, and is the scene with his old Scottish mate, it's actually very moving. The brilliance of David Jason is always evident.

Del puts the salts into his brandy, when he walks away with it, and walks back in, the salts have gone.

Very good in an awesome series, 8/10.
