I am a latecomer to Buffy the Vampire Slayer, I only started watching it after five rebroadcast the first series in March 2005. After we realised it was cut we borrowed a friend’s box set and we were off: buying and selling video copies on eBay until we decided to buy the region 1 box-set, the Chosen Collection. We finished season 7 at the beginning of January 2006.

I can declare my passion for BtVS from the Oz/Willow/Tara arc of season four when I became smitten with the latter two. I can safely say that the ending of "Seeing Red" broke the part of my heart that loved BtVS and season 7 would have had to be brilliant to compensate for the loss of Tara (and the luminous Amber Benson). And season 7 wasn’t brilliant…
