[edit] Notes

There remains some confusion over what the official titles are for each 'Allo 'Allo! episode. This had led to different DVD releases using different titles; and some fans have formed their own unofficial titles for episodes which have not yet being released on DVD. For the purposes of clarification, titles shown here are as follows:

• Series 1-5: These are the titles which appear on the Region 2 DVD releases. Titles shown in brackets are where Region 1 and Region 4 DVD release titles do not correspond to those on the Region 2 DVD release.
• Series 6: These are the titles which appear on the Region 1 DVD release (the only release of this series to date).
• Series 7-9: The official titles are not currently known for these series, and are therefore shown by the production code of each episode. Unofficial titles for these episodes are shown within the related article for each episode. Series 7-8 and the second Christmas Special (under the title "Pregnancy") have been released on DVD in Poland, however with no titles, just notes on every episode.
