  • I missed many of these episodes on PBS in America, because I was busy taking care of my sick mother and I was working two jobs at the same time.

    Many thanks for posting these Dr. Finlay Series. My gratitude is heartfelt for having some time to watch the missing episodes.

  • Thank you very much!
