'Christmas Presence'

Probably the best Christmas episode of a TV series I ever saw. Centers on a little boy with AIDS - back when the big scare was on and children were being run out of neighborhoods because people feared the disease. Hard to believe now that we were ever that paranoid, but epidemics will do it to you.

Now, if only I could find that episode on DVD somewhere (it was 3rd season).

All four seasons have been released in Region 2 (U.K., Europe).

I agree, it was a wonderful episode with a moving climax and ending.

It can now be seen on the season 3 set.
