BTW, was the finale really the Christmas special? Seemed like late fall to me.[/quote]

Yes, it was the Christmas special because it air on Christmas day in the UK. They opted not to have it take place during Christmas time in the show this time though.

Probably cheaper too - no need to have snow special effects!
