Only Fools is my all time favourite sitcom...and it deserves to be. This show is very much lightening in a bottle. Its success is very much down to the combination of great acting and wonderful scripts. Quite simply without the key ingredients the show would not work.

Over 20 years the show ran and we watched the ...  Read the complete review

Only Fools and Horses is a legendary programme, it doesn't matter how many times I've seen the episodes (and there's not an episode that has passed me by) they still tickle me and there are some parts that I just forget how good they are.

Another reason that I prefer ...  Read the complete review

Now they just dont make comedies like this anymore. There was a time when Britain had great comedies, however now there is slapstick rubbish on and the best example of this is the green green grass which amusingly enough is written by the same guy that writes this genious show. Also Sullivan is currently creating a new show which will be based on the Only Fools and Horses characters when they are teenagers, and if it is anything like the slapstick shows then it really will be a tragedy instead of a tribute. So this show is about a wheelerdealer called Delboy, played excellently by David Jason and his dopey brother Rodney, played by Nicholes ...  Read the complete review
