In Croatia they are living Legends....every year they been showing them at least 2times a year and still we can't get enough of them...Much respect i love for u Sir David from 🇭🇷with ❤
Haha yes. I watch it often here in Croatia (English guy). By the way there is a Trotter Independant Traders Reliant Regal van on Njuškalo for sale. Poz.
David Jason is a genuine national treasure. He has given so much joy & laughter to so many people. John Sullivan was a comedy genius with his superb writing along with David’s perfect character of Del Boy has made this 40yr old sit com a true classic. You could put on a dvd of it with a 10year old now and they will instantly get it..laugh their heads off. When David’s time is up it will be a sad day
I well up with tears ..with just the thought of his passing..so yes it will definately be a sad period of time as the mourning shan't ease magically over night. How could it...when he is a giant amongst giants..! 😢
Vratice se Rode u pocetku serijala kada Dragan Bjelogrlic i Nikola Djuricko prodaju na pijacima one lazne parfeme podseća me na Del Boy i Rodney :) th-cam.com/video/_Tlye7sPzt4/w-d-xo.html
Trigger was played by a very accomplished actor (Roger Lloyd-Pack). His father was also an actor (Charles Lloyd-Pack) and played a key role in the film 'Victim' (1961) with Dirk Bogarde.
I don’t use this word often but he’s an absolute legend. I’m 26 so I wasn’t born when OFAH began but I have watched every episode about 50 times and it’s undoubtedly my favourite series of all time. Nicholas Lyndhurst deserves a huge amount of credit too.
That puts you pretty much exactly the same age as me, I'm 28 now meaning you will be too. There's something comforting watching a show like this, where isn't really a mobile phone in sight, and certainly no mention of social media etc. I love putting it on and escaping the modern world where everything is done for likes and clicks and all that shit, no-one is genuine and its all about their ego and virtue. I feel like this show was made with nothing but good intentions (unlike a lot of what comes out now) and it sets out to do one thing which is to, make you you laugh (and tug the heart strings a bit here and there too)
I was born in the east end of London and the characters from fools n horses were all true to life down the local pub, even down to the nicknames! You can still see the remnants of these characteristics in Essex n Kent now etc...I have always felt so blessed to be a cockney and no matter how much London has changed, I always have my fantastic memories.....✨💕🙏🏼
Should've been Jim Broadbent originally (who eventually went on to play Roy Slater) according to what John Sullivan said in Comedy Connections and various other interviews over the years, but Jim rejected the part. Time was running out to find someone to play the part when Producer Ray Butt just happened to spot David Jason in Open All Hours. I think it was a scene where he was trying on some new clothes out the back in Arkwright's shop and did a 'Del Boy swagger' and he was cast from there.
I think he tries to supress that image the most he can, but the way he acted and talked was really him I believe. It's a shame people feel like they have to be someone else these days.
When he says ‘it’s a well known fact” he’s basically saying he’s told this story a million times. True legend though as he’s always happy to keep taking about Del Boy
“ONLY FOOLS AND HORSES “ greatest comedy show in the world !!! I still watch the repeats over and over again never get bored ....David Jason sheer brilliance !!!
Watching this after the millionaire scene. David and Nicholas are both legends. Over 20 years of tears laughs and smiles. There will never be another show like only fools.
Don't start that captain Birdseye cobblers with me 😂😂never gets old I can tell you line for line.just magical.john Sullivan who wrote every line.genius and David is my idol.he gets Rodney every time.ha
A true legend! Even though I'm swede somehow I watched Only fools and horses a lot... So much comedy from UK is mind blowing, Fawlty, Young ones, Fools and horses and soo on...
My dad worked with Derek Hockley. My dad use to nick his van when meant to be at work and take his mates to South End in Essex 😂. Derek never knew.😂 My dad was a real East End Cockney very similar to Del Boy,voice, words,mannerisms. My dad died recently this year 2023. I miss him terribly so only fools and horses is bittersweet comfort. I love you dad you old tart! Il always be your wally as you would say you silly git. 😂❤❤❤❤❤❤
Incredible character created by the late GREAT John Sullivan, brought to life by the even greater Legendary actor David Jason.......Timeless Classics every episode without a doubt.
Josh Charlie, I am from Scotland, and I lived in London for quite some time, back in the day. You are right mate. London did have a real sense of character about it, and I loved listening to the Cockneys and their banter. Absolutely brilliant. So sad about modern day London. Really sad. It's just not the same.
RobRoyBoaz sad indeed. I go and gaze at the buildings now. But you aren’t likely to bump in to a Londoner. Just plenty of people who now live in London from all over the world. Not families that lived there for generations, who built the place with their hands.
You would be very much surprised that we say the same about Belgrade. Losing its character from the 60s and 70s, no old Belgrade families any more, people coming from all over ex Yugoslavia to live here etc. It seems to happen all over the world with the big cities .
Im from London, North, and it was NOT the same place when I left 15 years ago, I went back 4 years ago and it was like walking down a street in Afghanistan in some areas. But the world is changing, we all evolve. Lets all be free and get on
One iof the greatest British comedian actors, but even he says the real Govenor is the late and very great Ronnie Barker. Ronnie knew every style of comedy and how to write and act it and he wrote everything he ever did but posted it all to the Producers as anonymous letters for free play screen writes. After the program would end, they would have their finale after series dinner parties and he would say, he was the one who wrote it all. I would add George 'Arthur Daley' Cole and Dennis Waterman with these legends and John Thaw, but the latter 3 were not comedic actors.
I have grown up with fools and horses and it will always remain timeless to me. I Love the characters and the actors and I was 12 when only fools had horses started, and now I'm almost 50 it really brings it all into perspective. The time has really gone by so fast and it really has. My conclusion is that we really have to take into account that life is so short and we really have to slow down just a bit and look around 😉
It’s Xmas night and I’m sat here watching the Xmas ep where grandad cooks the turkey with all the giblets still in! “I just didn’t know it was in there Del Boy” 😂
David jason is a fine actor. The Trotters were like extended family to us. My family goes back generations in London (we traced our family tree back a few hundred years). My Uncle was a wheeler dealer when we were kids and always had stuff around his flat, but his brother, Kenny, was teh absolute double of Del Boy, right down to the haircut, gold, the camel hair coat..and his five foot nothing.. A real wide boy he was, and when OFAH came to air, there were near riots at home when we saw Del Boy for the first time!
Still watch OFAH on Gold, I’ll quite happily watch repeat after repeat. The best sitcom ever made. It for sure will be a sad day when David Jason dies, a true legend of British acting.
What I really liked about this was as David Jason was recollecting meeting the builder you could tell as he was talking he momentarily went back to that day and we saw a snippet of the creative rpocess. Only Fools and Horses is amazing but just like David Jason, it takes me back thinking about school days, watching tv with the brothers and family.
Only fools and horses is one of them past times where you feel at home, brings you back, keeps you balanced. When my gf was pregnant we would sit and watch episodes every night for dinner. So now only fools is associated with just a good time for me.
Great story, "Always try to give something to the audience" will stick in my mind. Thank you my friend for all the laughs and enjoyment over the years.
Absolute legend ! Best actor & comedy show of all times, they don't make them like that any more. Hats down for David Jason & John Sullivan, OFAH forever !
A true ledgend what a diamond the belly laughs I've had watching fools and horses and open all hours thank you David Jason and the whole crew that created pure genius.
'e's windin' me uuuup... thank you David Jason - great artiste, can't imagine anyone other than him and Arthur Cole as Del and Arfur. Can't get enough of them.
🤣😂i had the genuine ming biscuit barrel , that sat on dels telly ...( he used it for his cigars ) ..... cost me £2.50p ...... BUT TO YOU MADAM A KNICKER 🤣🤣😂
Love you David Jason. Loved you as Granville and Arkwrite. Loved you with grandad and Rodney. Loved you as par larking. Toad and danger mouse. You have and will have an amazing life xxx❤ Jayne Pontlottyn😃
The greatest actor of all what a man what a legend a national treasure like sir David Attenborough 2 of the most inspirational men to walk this earth love you del boy
I've been watching for nearly 30 years and although I noticed the plastic on the furniture, my grandparents did that too, I never realised why until now 🤣
He tells the story in his book about how they got the clothes for Del Boy; the buyer went out to the shops on the cheap end of Oxford St and shopped for the flashy clothes which were showy but somehow 'off'
When he dies Arkwright will sell his bones on special offer
Watch yersel.....
Bbbbb..uuy boones lol
Tommy Atkins thy y

Best British comedy character of all time - Del Boy.
@BeNosey.com defo
John cleese from fawlty towers has to br considered to!
Harry Corbett was that character
What to think of Bill Owen (Compo, Last of the Summerwine)?
Mr. Been?
This is someone you never want to see age, he should be immortal 😭
he is immortal...:))) greetings from croatia
Still got it all knocking about up there though.
Just wanted to write that, immortal.
He is immortal.. We had something similar done before Only fools and horses- "Kamiondzije". Best regards from Serbia
@@SviSrbiuDijaspori I wish I could understand a word of what's said in it. It looks good
Literally watched this a kid with my grandad and still watch it now.. I'm 35 and still burst out laughing at the gags - it will never die
Yup, I remember doing the exact same, watching it with my grandparents just before I entered double figures. I'm 27 now. :)
Not many shows I can watch with both my dad and my teenage kids, and we all laugh out loud. It's timeless.
In Croatia they are living Legends....every year they been showing them at least 2times a year and still we can't get enough of them...Much respect i love for u Sir David from 🇭🇷with ❤

Still see him as del boy even if he in his 70s. 😊
Huuuuge hit during 90s and 2000s in Serbia! We all loved the Fools and Horses! There will never be the same show again sadly.
Sreca pa imamo reprize. Gledam svaku i smejem se kao da je prvi put 😁
That's because we had about million Del Boys in Serbia during 90ies... It was the only way to survive :)

I could watch OFAH all day long - best tv show of our time
Of any time.
Great minds think alike
Definitely not a bad show
Del Boy and Trigger.... best comedy characters ever.
Ranger White - Trigger's timing was without equal. RIP.
Trigger was played by a very accomplished actor (Roger Lloyd-Pack). His father was also an actor (Charles Lloyd-Pack) and played a key role in the film 'Victim' (1961) with Dirk Bogarde.
Trigger ALWAYS called Rodney Dave 😂😂😂
Boycie was Brilliant too and rodney
"they're gonna call the baby Rodney,.after Dave"
I don’t use this word often but he’s an absolute legend. I’m 26 so I wasn’t born when OFAH began but I have watched every episode about 50 times and it’s undoubtedly my favourite series of all time. Nicholas Lyndhurst deserves a huge amount of credit too.

He's still got that tiny bit of Del Boy about him, just the odd mannerism, very brief, but he was SO Del, it obviously had a tiny lasting effect
I think he tries to supress that image the most he can, but the way he acted and talked was really him I believe. It's a shame people feel like they have to be someone else these days.
Look at some old interviews. In the 80s he literally spoke like del
heloo from Serbia. The best. Forever. oliver

We love you Sir David. Thank you for all the laughter and joy you brought us to this day. Forget the PANDEMIC, watch Only Fools and Horses.
Every time I see or hear him, I'm getting a smile on my face... A legend! :)
When he says ‘it’s a well known fact” he’s basically saying he’s told this story a million times. True legend though as he’s always happy to keep taking about Del Boy

"Show, don't tell." One of the most brilliant & crucial keys to great & memorable creativity!
I love David Jason, a true gentleman and gifted actor.
David Jason and John Sullivan are worshipped in my household. IMO the best comedy writer actor duo of all time ✊🏾💯
This getting old is a load of bolix .. What a legend of a man

A true ledgend what a diamond the belly laughs I've had watching fools and horses and open all hours thank you David Jason and the whole crew that created pure genius.
He used to be posher but the older David getting the more he now sounds like Del Boy if you look away he sounds like a Del Boy from the 1980s
From what I've read he was actually raised somewhat working class, think it was jus common back in the day to be well spoken when working with the BBC
I was a DelBoy for 20 years in London, i sold even two left shoes, and lots of
tanning cream in bethnal green........
Sure you did fella
Gotta love Danger Mouse and Count Duckula too! ☺️
He was upset not being part of monty python but worked out great for him in the end

Still sharp as a pin here. Love the bloke, he's a legend.

Best thing to ever come out from UK/london
