Only Fools and Horses

Only Fools and Horses is a comedic masterpiece that brilliantly captures the essence of British humor. Centered around the charming yet hapless Trotter brothers, the show masterfully blends wit, heart, and social commentary. The writing is sharp, with iconic catchphrases and unforgettable characters, from the lovable Del Boy to the grumpy Grandad. Each episode offers a mix of laugh-out-loud moments and poignant themes about family and ambition. Its timeless appeal and cultural impact solidify its status as one of the greatest sitcoms ever. A perfect blend of comedy and emotion earns it a well-deserved 10/10.

I adore Only Fools and Horses, along with Last of the Summer Wine and Blackadder it is one of my favourite comedy series ever. It is original, it is well written and acted and more importantly it is funny! The scripts are absolutely hilarious, I have lost count of the amount of times I have cried laughing in one episode alone, and how many times I have quoted something from the show. The story lines are great fun and original, maybe the situations have been seen before but how it is handled and acted out is exceedingly clever no matter how extremely silly it gets. But there have been times when it has been suitably serious, Uncle Albert's death and Cassie's miscarriage especially were effectively done. The performances are astounding. I am a massive David Jason fan, and he is fantastic as DelBoy, a naughty but a nevertheless lovable character. Nicolas Lyndhurst does a great job as Rodney. Then there is Grandad (Leonard Pearce), later replaced by Uncle Albert(Buster Mayfield), the oft-source of DelBoy's pranks; with either character you're bound to have a good time, though if I had a slight preference I have to say Grandad. Pearce's delivery of hilarious lines was priceless, though I'd have to say the same for Albert's war stories. Roger Lloyd Pack proves he is great at comedy as Trigger as well. The theme tune is fun and memorable. Favourite episode? That is such a hard question, I don't think I can answer that, though the one with Del and Rodney dressing up as Batman and Robin was a scream. In conclusion, comedy at its greatest. If you want some top notch comedy, just put Only Fools and Horses on. 10/10 Bethany Cox

If you're British you watch this show, I don't care from what walk of life or age group you belong to. OFAH even today remains the UK's most beloved sitcom and for good reasons, characters that have stood the test of time, enjoyable stories and a entire show arch spanding over the course of nearly 25 years. Out of OFAH 64 episodes there are probably only what I would considertwo or three Bad episodes, and even then it's still watchable. Younger viewers may miss out on many of the references though as the show did debut in 1980. However this is the only real drawback of the series I can think of that isn't subjective. In 2020 I still love this show and to anyone who might not have watched it yet, what the hell are you waiting for?

Such a classic comedy and one of my favourites I have the complete boxset and never get bored with it.
