My Family - Disc 7

My Family - Disc 7....I don't know what's going on with this program. The BBC finally got around to airing the 10th series after a delay of months and after the 6th episode seem to have pulled the plug on it. They skipped a week before airing the 7th episode and the 8th and 9th are not listed in any of the available TV listings I've seen. Supposedly a forthcoming Christmas special and 11th series are already in the can and that is supposed to be the end of it. The cast is down to a skeleton crew now and they seem to focus on a special guest star each episode. Roger doesn't show up at all until the last 3 eps, the grandchild, Kenzo, appears in a few episodes. Susan is missing from one ep and only has a couple scenes in another. Robert Lindsay gets to do a crooning "Bobby Darin at the Copa" scene (contractual obligation?) that almost jumps the shark, and...of course....there's the "Michael thing" (jump the shark?).
