    ...You were joking, weren't you? ;);)

    That clip, of course, comes from Mash and Peas. Is it really nearly twenty years since Lucas and Walliams made it? :eek:

    Surely it can't be any worse than Rock & Chips?

    Interestingly the guy who played Slater was initially supposed to play the part of Del Boy.

    & look where he is now Oscar Winner Jim Broadbent, as you'd never think that was him then, i wonder where would David Jason be if he wasnt cast either

    I loved that episode with Gary the illegal immigrant. Brilliant it was :cool:

    That was the one with Denzel, Rodney & Del getting the booze on the ferry & did something bad happen to Denzel as usual?

    Always hated OFAH, which seems to put me in a minority of one.

    Del Boy and co will reappear for the charity fundraiser - but the BBC denies reports of a full-blown comeback - link

    Only Fools and Horses is being lined up for a long-awaited return to our TV screens in the spring.
    Sir David Jason, 73, and Nicholas Lyndhurst, 52, will be back as wheeler-dealer Del Boy and hapless Rodney in March, it has been revealed.
    Viewers will see the telly favourites in a sketch – written by the sons of creator John Sullivan, Dan and Jim – to be shown during BBC's Sport Relief...
    Also:
    Earlier this year it was revealed that an episode of Only Fools and Horses that never aired on telly had been unearthed.
    Titled Licensed To Drill, the 1984 special shows Del Boy trying to make a quick quid by getting involved in the oil business.
    The 19-minute special has dropped under the radar for many fans of the sitcom as it was an educational programme funded by the oil industry, played in some school science lessons in the 1980s, to encourage children to follow a career in oil.
    It looks like John Sullivan was gonna revive it before he died in 2011 & the sons are now gonna carry it out, well let's hope they're as good as their father.

    Can't see a full return happening.

    Good luck, Trigs. Don't listen to the voices in your head telling you the pearly gates would make for great scrap metal.

    Oh dear Trigger has left us. What a wonderful actor to be cast for Only Fools and Horses.

    R.I.P Trigs. You're a legend.

    Very sad news, I didn't know he was ill. He was a very good comic actor - I an't imagine anyone else playing Trigger as well.

    Roger Lloyd-Pack was also a good actor in things like Doc Martin, Doctor Who, Harry Potter and Survivors. He will be missed RIP.

    R.I.P. Trigger.
    Easily one of the best characters in the show, probably my favourite of the lot. It wouldn't be OFAH without Trigger.

    Well written. Thought DJ's voice was a little wobbly at the start. Really showing his age, but he kind of warmed up. DB was surprisingly good.

    Would prefer if they revisited Goodnight Sweetheart with NL if they're doing anything. There's a lot of potential in going back to that show at a time when his character would babe been a teenager with the older version of himself

    I actually think David Jason looks younger in that than he did in The Royal Bodyguard. He looked rough in The Royal Bodyguard.

    I have to say Beckham was a lot better than I would have expected and I enjoyed it.

    Yeah I thought he'd be atrocious but he wasn't bad at all.
