I'd love to see a rock and chips reaction too, just to throw my hat in there

2024-08-08 20:56:13 +0000 UTCA brilliant ensemble cast. David Jason consistently turns in one of the greatest and believable performances as Del Boy, and rightly get’s the majority of the plaudits. Mixed with Nicholas Lyndhurst’s perfect comic timing - especially in his reaction shots, hilariously portraying confused, shocked, and amused with just a look and always managing to get some of the biggest laughs out of it. Sitcom perfection. I’m currently up to “Sickness and Wealth” on the patreon reactions, so quite a few classic still to come. Lovely Jubbly.

2024-08-08 16:32:12 +0000 UTCI was wrong on this, I didn't think OFAH would be received well on the other side of the pond but I'm pleased you got it. Maybe add 'Just Good Friends' to your list, I never liked it when it first aired but I watched it again a few years ago and the jokes hit far better than they did when I was a kid.

2024-08-08 12:29:07 +0000 UTCYep, only 3 episodes of rock and chips! Well worth the watch, it’s more of a drama than a comedy and the main character is Dels mum (who we never see in OFAH). Nick plays “Freddie the Frog”

2024-08-07 23:21:38 +0000 UTC'After the tragic passing of his son Archie at the tender age of 20, David is reported to have been a rock for his former colleague and his wife Lucy. A source disclosed to The Sun: "He's [David] been in regular touch [with Nicholas] ever since and like everyone else who cares for Nick and his family is just trying to provide whatever support he can."-

2024-08-07 22:27:01 +0000 UTCSadly, it was reported this year that David Jason and Nicholas Lyndhurst no longer speak to each other. Lyndhurst lost his son a few years ago and whilst Jason was supportive it changed Nicholas a bit and they no longer speak. There was a possibility of another reunion show but Lyndhurst opted to do Frasier instead.

2024-08-07 21:48:52 +0000 UTCFYI KB, the actress shown being interviewed, Wanda Ventham who played Cassandra's mum, is actually Benedict Cumberbatch's real mum. Someone may have told you already in the past.

2024-08-07 19:57:36 +0000 UTCRock and Chips plays like a drama with comedic bits. They have a film/movie (not video) look and have no studio audience laughter track. It's worth doing to understand the Trotters' back story and has some good characters with the family and Del's gang, etc. Worth doing as it's only 3 long episodes.

2024-08-07 19:55:20 +0000 UTCEdward kitchener?!? I never knew John Sullivan gave Grandad a first or middle name.

2024-08-07 19:26:59 +0000 UTCBeen fantastic watching this 6-part documentary and your reaction, KB! Definitely do Rock and Chips - it is only 3 episodes, more of a drama with some funny bits than a sitcom with some serious bits, but it's a fascinating watch even if nothing will ever beat OFAH for its reach and rewatchability. I'm sure most of us on here would happily see you re-react to OFAH with Queen Boomer at some stage too. It's time consuming so we know it may need to wait! 😎

2024-08-07 19:03:03 +0000 UTCIf you like drama I’d highly recommend the British police series No Offence - it’s darkly funny and just plain dark. I’ll pop it in the chat

2024-08-07 18:43:47 +0000 UTCI always say OFAH is a cultural icon, it really is interwoven in British culture in a way that’s hard to describe - it’s way more than just a popular comedy
Kieran B
2024-08-07 18:42:38 +0000 UTCThey are still there.
Brian Moran
2024-08-07 18:33:55 +0000 UTCDefinitely go with Rock and Chips Nicholas Lyndhurst always comes across as a lovely bloke, he tragically lost his 19-year old son not too long ago too - poor sod. I’m a huge Frasier fan as well but still haven’t seen the new ones, but he’s the other main cast member I understand. Hopefully you’ll get to watch Goodnight Sweetheart one day too

2024-08-07 18:31:21 +0000 UTCRock and chips is ace for story

2024-08-07 18:27:44 +0000 UTCAbsolutely.
Austyn Shaw
2024-08-07 18:08:43 +0000 UTCyes, YES, yes doooooooooooooooooooooo Rock and Chips
Jed Baker
2024-08-07 18:06:30 +0000 UTCYeah, agreed. I think a lot of us mentioned the FT documentary at the time - I hope they get round to that at some point.
Phil Robinson
2024-08-07 17:27:00 +0000 UTCLoved watching these documentaries with you a lot. Yeah, just do Rock 'N Chips mate - I doubt you'll regret it! From John Sullivan's other works as shown in this episode, "Dear John" was always a favourite of mine - another show with a great cast and brilliant characters.
Phil Robinson
2024-08-07 17:25:30 +0000 UTCRock and Chips is very much worth doing. It's not the same as OFAH, its focus is more on storytelling than straight humour, but it's a very funny show and a good way to cap the story off.

Daniel Colton
2024-08-07 16:49:56 +0000 UTCThoroughly enjoyed this whole OFAH journey with you. Thank you. Maybe this has been answered before somewhere, but were you and QB still planning to react to Father Ted 'Near, far away' documentary?
