2025-09-13 17:18:34 +0000 UTCAs a Brit, this is my all-time favourite British sitcom. Absolutely amazing, and I love the final three specials too
SG
2025-04-29 22:48:20 +0000 UTCYou should check out Nicholas (Rodney) in the comedy Goodnight Sweetheart. Great watch.
Justyn
2025-03-17 22:53:59 +0000 UTCWhen the greatest ever British comedy came to an end - very sad indeed. But we get to rewatch over and over which I’ve done for many years and never get bored. Super classic
Justyn
2025-03-17 22:39:41 +0000 UTCPersonally I think this finale is stronger as an ending for Rodney whereas 'Time On Our Hands' was more for Del.

2025-03-14 04:08:29 +0000 UTCMakes you laugh, makes you cry. Great to see you laugh at everything I did and shed a tear too. Watch rock and chips, has you fave inbetweeners actor in it

Adam Senior
2024-12-12 19:53:59 +0000 UTCeasily the better ending , by miles.
TheHigh
2024-10-19 02:24:53 +0000 UTCRodney film idea sounds a lot like the the plot of LOST 10 years before it aired don't you think.
S Amd
2024-09-30 19:58:49 +0000 UTCI think the 1996 ending is preferred as the writing struggled with these newer episodes. Damien's character being one dimensional filler, has a cringey line then walks out of the room. The wives became dull and unlikable.. he did Raquel dirty with that god awful "only women bleed" line. The original ending had most things tied up and anything that wasn't was alluded to enough for the viewers to work out. There's plenty of good bits in them, overall a classic show.

2024-09-27 14:40:08 +0000 UTCEnd of an era!!🥹
Theloyalmuppet
2024-09-10 23:21:39 +0000 UTCYes, I think One Foot in the Grave is the closest you're going to get to OFAH - a set of oddball supporting characters, bonded central characters whose love for each other sustains them in ridiculous situations, some genuinely sad moments and a set of kicking feature length specials. And unlike OFAH, the quality stays the same throughout - the last episode is stunning.
Anthony Donegan
2024-07-26 16:23:43 +0000 UTCIt's there but it's not been added to the OFAH collection. You'll need to search for it, pal.
Jeffrey44
2024-07-11 19:31:57 +0000 UTCYes definitely, although Royle Family is Manchester / Stockport rather than Liverpool (although Jim is from Liverpool)
Kieran B
2024-07-10 19:46:24 +0000 UTCWhere’s Strangers on the Shore..?
Kieran B
2024-07-10 19:45:40 +0000 UTCWhat was your favourite episode?
That Guy
2024-06-22 18:21:35 +0000 UTCFound the whole feud with Boycie and Marlene so misplaced for this final episode - Really not necessary.
Aaron Hinton
2024-06-22 00:50:42 +0000 UTCPeople Just Do Nothing, The Royle Family and This Country are shows that will equally portray normal(ish!) people living in different parts of the UK (suburban London, Liverpool and the Cotswolds). But, they're much more recent. I haven't seen it suggested before, but I think the closest sitcom to OFAH is Bread, also from the 80s.
Jazz Chilli
2024-06-21 18:04:14 +0000 UTCas you love boycie surely "the green green grass" should be the next show :)
Jake Lol
2024-06-15 15:56:29 +0000 UTCAs you said KB, the show is timeless. Wait a couple of years until Princess Boomer is old enough to not need 24/7 supervision an watch it again with the Queen then
Steve King
2024-06-15 11:20:36 +0000 UTChttps://www.patreon.com/posts/only-fools-and-105332007 Do you mean this one? He has done it but it hasn't made the Collections tab for the show.
Simon Ball
2024-06-14 21:17:13 +0000 UTCWould love to see both King and Queen Boomer watch Derry Girls or Porridge.
Robert Trainer
2024-06-14 12:29:06 +0000 UTCI apologise if I'm being oblivious, but are you going to return to the episode you missed?
Daniel
2024-06-14 07:32:50 +0000 UTCI've said this a few times now..one foot in the grave doesn't get enough love. Victor Meldrew is up there with del boy for me as one of the best comedy characters from British TV!
John Johnstone
2024-06-13 19:33:06 +0000 UTCJust Good Friends was pretty good, although haven’t seen it since the 80s, so not sure how well it’s aged. Dear John was quite funny as well - They actually did a US version of Dear John, which was quite successful and ran for a lot more episodes than the UK version, although John Sullivan didn’t write many of the additional US episodes.
Gary Tamblyn
2024-06-13 17:00:56 +0000 UTCNo he didn’t, he saw that one, it’ll be in the list somewhere 🙂
Gary Tamblyn
2024-06-13 16:56:38 +0000 UTCHe's done Strangers on the shore but it isn't in the collection for some reason. If you scroll down the home page, you'll find it.
Andy Waller
2024-06-13 15:26:09 +0000 UTCIt has been a pleasure to watch your reactions to this amazing show. It will be great to see you re watch it with QB when you both have time. Like others I strongly suggest you watch the 3 episodes of Rock and Chips to give you an insight into Dels younger years before Rodney was born.
Andy Waller
2024-06-13 15:24:28 +0000 UTCI think this ending, Rodney and Cassandra becoming parents, the Freddy the frog stuff, the brothers talking about it, tied up some important loose ends. But I did like them finishing it on the high note of becoming millionaires. I suppose that speaks to how invested you get in these characters. I didn't like having neither grandad or uncle Albert though.
sean
2024-06-12 19:17:00 +0000 UTCBrilliant , definately give rock and chips a go,and I can't recommend one foot in the grave enough, I love the grumpy crazy old man
Fozzie Bear
2024-06-12 10:34:39 +0000 UTCYou've missed the middle special from this trilogy, "Strangers On The Shore"
Andy
2024-06-12 10:30:42 +0000 UTCGutted it’s all over. My favourite show ever. Loved all the reactions.
Paul Archibald
2024-06-12 09:32:52 +0000 UTCWatch Rock and Chips, the prequel set in the 60's with Jay playing Del Boy, has people playing young verisons of Boycie, Trigger and Denzil and Nicholas Lyndhurst playing Freddy the Frog. It was also written by John Sullivan.
Matt
2024-06-11 23:43:17 +0000 UTCStart it over. :)
Daniel Poole
2024-06-11 21:40:00 +0000 UTCDefinitely react to it again with QB
Andrew Bojas
2024-06-11 21:07:53 +0000 UTCOnly Fools And Horses is a comedy great and one of the best imo. However please give "Keeping Up Appearances" and "One Foot In The Grave" a chance. Also "The Royle Family". Them three are the best and most hilarious imo , that is why I'm confident they will have you really laughing out loud. Short clip of "Keeping Up Appearances - https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Sg8qCkUh2t0&t=18s
Will
2024-06-11 20:35:52 +0000 UTCHey KB you can check out the prequel series Rock and Chips with James Buckley now and Goodnight Sweetheart with Nicolas Lyndhurst for some time travel drama. Also very up for you to do Inbetweeners again!
Jooe
2024-06-11 20:08:26 +0000 UTCI support this recommendation
Aaron
2024-06-11 19:38:12 +0000 UTCRock and chips doesn't have the comedy, but it does tell a story.
Billy Nomates
2024-06-11 19:29:54 +0000 UTCI preferred this ending brought it all full circle
Mark Parker
2024-06-11 16:49:59 +0000 UTCRock and chips next
Michael Patch
2024-06-11 16:20:14 +0000 UTCMaybe you should watch Rock and Chips, the OFAH prequel, starring James Buckley (Jay from Inbetweeners) as Del Boy
Oliver Chapman
2024-06-11 15:17:51 +0000 UTCWhen it first aired and they brought back Freddie the Frog character (from the Frogs Legacy episode), I thought they were somehow going to find the gold! Rock and Chips is worth watching as it carries on the story, and you can play spot the actor as you'll recognise many of them!
Adi Hughes
2024-06-11 14:07:11 +0000 UTCTruly the best show ever made! I still watch it over and over, just has everything, the characters are so endearing and genuine, just pure excellence of sitcom making
Matt Wells
2024-06-11 13:39:14 +0000 UTCPlease do a rewatch with QB when you have time. I know she’ll love this show. Also totally up for an inbetweeners uncut rewatch too! I’ve re-watched those reactions of yours the most on your YouTube channel
JJ M
2024-06-11 13:12:01 +0000 UTCAn idea that springs to mind to follow this is the comedy Porridge with Ronnie Barker. Reason being its a gritty prison comedy with a performer on a par with David Jason. Again it's got something authentically British about it like OFAH. I also loved Dear John by John Sullivan (OFAH writer) but it could be difficult to get hold of
Richard Stokes
2024-06-11 13:10:48 +0000 UTCI can remember OFAH when it first aired and it was not popular, and I think this the problem as it wasn't until it was repeated that it found its audience and unfortunately this slightly younger viewer likely did not see previous John Sullivan comedies like 'Citizen Smith', 'Dear John' or my personal favourite 'Just Good Friends'. As someone in their 50's I loved this era of British TV that is largely forgotten. I always seems to be 'Carry on films' and 'On The buses' from the 70's that get recommended or 90's and onward shows. I'll keep on paying my sub's but it would be nice if you reacted to something for us old gits too.
Jason Bonner
2024-06-11 11:50:18 +0000 UTCThis was the best way to end the show in my opinion. Rodney didn't need to be rich, he always wanted a family. Del was bored as a millionaire. This was they have a complete family and enough money to keep them better off than most. I also loved the fact they readressed Freddy the frog.
Daniel Poole
2024-06-11 11:26:13 +0000 UTCYou should watch Rock and Chips after because it actually shows how their mum and Freddie met
Callum Bruce
2024-06-11 10:08:55 +0000 UTCI honestly don't think QB would stick with it, even when it becomes easier with PB when she's older, giving QB more spare time... I could be completely wrong but my impression is the QB is less patient than KB with these types of shows and won't stay with it unless it has constant jokes and silliness like an Inbetweeners type of show humour.
BigChanChan
2024-06-11 08:39:13 +0000 UTCNever watched Green Green Grass, but I have watched Rock & Chips, which I always watch after finishing my annual rewatch of OFAH
ChrisDavid
2024-06-11 08:20:45 +0000 UTCThe first episode of “The Green Green Grass” is very good! You should check it out and see if you like it. Also there’s only 3 episodes of “Rock & Chips”, which isn’t a comedy but it gives a very deep insight into their Mums hard life and a young Del Boy (played by Jay from inbetweeners) and Freddie “The Frog” (played by Rodney) well worth the watch! Both shows were written by the same man who wrote every episode of Only Fools (John Sullivan) so they still feel the same! There’s also a 6 part documentary with most of the actors and producers of the show, which shows us behind the scenes, bloopers and never before scene footage!
AWR93
2024-06-11 05:34:05 +0000 UTCI think everyone would understand a rewatch with QB will be sporadic. Remember for a long time the episodes were only half an hour too, not these feature length ones they had towards the end.
Elizabeth
2024-06-11 03:20:12 +0000 UTCTry Vicar of Dibley that has Trigger in it and it's brilliant you'd love it
Rhys Jones
2024-06-11 00:55:20 +0000 UTCThe game is Wipeout btw
Geraint Harrison
2024-06-10 23:53:25 +0000 UTCKB if you need a fix of OFAH check out the 6-part series 'The Story of Only Fools and Horses' . Includes clips and interviews with the cast. They're on You Tube but I can't find them in really good quality. This is the 1st episode link: https://youtu.be/pNovy5iZDoQ?si=VDKp4CvUGlhjGFGe

2024-06-10 23:31:59 +0000 UTCI'd love to see these shorts you keep talking about, because I only know about the David Beckham one.
Joe Thornhill
2024-06-10 23:09:04 +0000 UTCTHE GREATEST BRITISH SHOW EVER
Callum Bruce
2024-06-10 22:58:58 +0000 UTCbefore you read this and think "oh not another one" there is a prequel that I request you watch called Rock & Chips, it's more of a drama but it really ties up the story of the Trotters family when Del was but a young boy (played by James Buckley aka Jay from Inbetweeners). Please do that as a last send off to OFAH
Geraint Harrison
2024-06-10 22:44:48 +0000 UTCBeen a pleasure watching you react to every episode, got a real quick out of watching someone view this masterpiece of a show for the first time. All the best to you KB
Stephen Giles
2024-06-10 22:31:02 +0000 UTCI think you should wait for QB to re-watch OFAH. Rock and Chips and Green Green Grass are ok, but not as good as OFAH. Goodnight Sweet Heart is good, I've recently watched it from start to finish. But I'd like to put some forward classics like Porridge, Rising Damp and One Foot In The Grave. More recent This Country, People Just Do Nothing and Cunk On Britain, Earth, Shakespeare and Christmas. And also Cunk On America but they're two vids on Utube, it's hilarious 😂
Lz Bristol
2024-06-10 22:11:57 +0000 UTCThe first season of Goodnight Sweetheart isn't very funny so if you only watched a few episodes then you'd probably not rate it but it does get better... It's definitely not shit but it's certainly flawed.
BigChanChan
2024-06-10 22:04:36 +0000 UTCIs there anyway I can watch your “this is England reaction” somewhere else or it is ONLY on here ? Cheers
maxlynchbrickz
2024-06-10 22:03:55 +0000 UTCEven though OFAH is without doubt the best of the lot, there's so many other good shows out there I'd say to try something new... (Excluding The Inbetweeners re-reacts since it's been a while & the full versions aren't on here) I'd personally want to see White gold or Brassic ASAP, but it seems like the best replacements for the shows that are ending would be: KMKY > Whatever the next partridge shows are Phoenix nights > Max & Paddy > Peter Kays car share > Brassic OFAH > Rock & chips > The Inbetweeners re-react > White Gold
ryung246
2024-06-10 21:58:22 +0000 UTCYeah, the USB disconnect sound is the new "squeaky chair" part of KB's videos.
Jay
2024-06-10 21:54:25 +0000 UTCWould love to start this over with QB in for the ride. We can wait, no rush.
Chris C
2024-06-10 21:53:17 +0000 UTCIf you were looking for a different change of pace with David Jason maybe watch A Touch of Frost were he plays a detective in a drama series
Mark Rooney
2024-06-10 21:52:28 +0000 UTCYou know when king boomer laughs hard because his computer has a breakdown 🤣🤣
David fallows
2024-06-10 21:41:26 +0000 UTCSad times KB, first of all wait a while before QB reacts then you’ll be able to react again having almost forgot. However I’ve enjoyed watching all of them again on here so thank you what a brilliant show it was
Jay D
2024-06-10 21:31:43 +0000 UTCIt’s good too
Rich Moyse
2024-06-10 21:29:03 +0000 UTCOne thing I wasn't a massive fan of from this episode was the plot hole with the 'Frog's Legacy' episode, it was obvious Del had no idea who he was. However I do think it was worth changing so I don't hate it now.
Kevin Liversage
2024-06-10 21:28:54 +0000 UTCAbsolutely brilliant! I loved every second of your reactions to my all time favourite show! And honestly, now you’ve seen it all, you’re just as qualified as we are to say that this ending was better… and I agree with you! Rodney and Cassandra having a baby girl and naming her after their mother was perfect! Id certainly recommend rock and chips next, followed by the green green grass. I know you like Boycie, and he’s still brilliant in this show!
Lee Organ
2024-06-10 21:19:23 +0000 UTCI remember watching a YouTube video around September/October time last year and you mentioned that you have been reacting to OFAH on Patreon. I subscribed straight away to watch them. Think you were on series 5 at the time I caught up to where you were pretty quickly and have been watching them every week since. I posted a comment on one of the episodes (can’t remember which one) predicting that one day you would call it the greatest show you have ever reacted too… turns out I was right! Whatever you do, whether you watch it again on your own or wait for QB, is up to you. I’ll still be here. Enjoy your reactions 👍 I might even watch your first-time reactions all the way from the start again! Bonjour! 😃
William Clark
2024-06-10 21:16:37 +0000 UTCI have really enjoyed watching this from beginning to end. Thank you. 😊 I will happily watch the Inbetweeners again with you guys. There was so much that had to be cut out on YouTube and I would love to see your reactions to it.
Sally Waites
2024-06-10 21:15:34 +0000 UTCRock and Chips is worth watching imo but the Green Green Grass is not. If you struggle to find a link I have one KB
Ste_UTB
2024-06-10 21:03:32 +0000 UTCThere’s a difference between a good funny sitcom and something that leaves a proper legacy. I know time will tell for other more modern shows, but you’re right Only Fools is timeless and even with the original broadcasts being over 40 years old the comedy will always shine and Only Fools will live on with every generation. It is so synonymous with British zeitgeist and the British public. Phrases like “plonker” and luvvy jubbly” are common British parlance, and if anyone says “during the war” everybody and their dog knows the reference. Long live Only Fools and long live John Sullivan’s legacy
Sam Dilks
2024-06-10 20:58:29 +0000 UTCLove your OFAH reactions and will miss them KB!! There's a great behind the scenes documentary, which includes members of the cast and some fans of the show, some of which you will know!!
Daniel French
2024-06-10 20:53:41 +0000 UTCYou'll think im joking, but theres actually a prequel to only fools, called "rock and chips" and young del boy is played by none other than....Jay from the inbetweeners!! I kid you not!
Matt Camburn
2024-06-10 20:41:08 +0000 UTCthis show can be rewatched and you will pick up on stuff you didnt see first time or, now that you know everyone, would apreciate more. I would watch it again with you later on and if QB can watch it too that would be perfect :)
Markos
2024-06-10 20:10:01 +0000 UTCUltimately I'd love a rewatch with QB but I appreciate that will be difficult at the moment. Definitely recommend Rock N Chips though, I think you'd really enjoy it.
Kevin Liversage
2024-06-10 20:09:58 +0000 UTCNone of the others are anywhere near as good as only fools. They are still OK on there own. But do not compare at all to the greatest British comedy ever made. Been fantastic watching you react to these. Thanks booms
Simon Westerman
2024-06-10 20:06:46 +0000 UTCI remember when KB used to always comment about how dated and old the show looked in terms of props etc which he seemed to be intrigued by. I wonder when he stopped thinking that, it spanned for 22 years in total
Jehan Ariyaratnam
2024-06-10 20:06:12 +0000 UTCTrigger had some crackers in this one, "or what?", you know what he means.... "what?" "So how much was that then?"
Jehan Ariyaratnam
2024-06-10 20:04:26 +0000 UTCI like both endings but this ending is more complete.
Simon Westerman
2024-06-10 20:03:30 +0000 UTCI watched a few Goodnight Sweetheart episodes a few years ago because I remember liking it as a kid so picked it for nostalgia and yeah, it has NOT aged well at all. It's really bad.
Menty
2024-06-10 20:02:26 +0000 UTCI can hear subtle disappointment in your voice from this saga ending. It's been fun sharing this treasure with you. I can't wait to see what you discover next. Bonjour.
Richard Stanley
2024-06-10 19:58:34 +0000 UTCBeen a real privilege to watch the whole thing again with you KB. Definitely wait until QB has time to join you. Will be worth the wait. Maybe a restart of the Inbetweeners until that time would be best
Chris Silverthorne
2024-06-10 19:50:14 +0000 UTCGreat reaction to cap off a phenomenal run KB. The show never gets old. You'll love a rewatch whether alone or when QB has time, or even have a word with ETS21, they just started it, hop on with them (just as an outside the box suggestion). Either way, thanks for a great year. Looking forward to starting it over at some point.
William Forsyth
2024-06-10 19:44:50 +0000 UTCDefinitely agree with the suggestion for 'The Royle Family' instead of 'Green Green Grass' or 'Goodnight Sweetheart' - they were shit. 'The Royle Family' should definitely be next!
Rob Walters
2024-06-10 19:38:28 +0000 UTCThis has been so much fun to watch with you. It has been lovely to reminise over all the great familiar moments throughout the series but also see it through the eyes of someone watching for the first time. It made me so happy to see that you enjoyed it as much as us Brits. Can't wait to see what you pick out next! Also big congrats on the 100k, huge achievement :)
Rebecca Musson
2024-06-10 19:33:20 +0000 UTCI hope you consider doing The Story of Only Fools and Horses; a 75-minute documentary with all the cast and crew and an insight into a ton of behind-the-scenes stuff, the cultural impact of the show, and the genius behind the mind of John Sullivan.
Menty
2024-06-10 19:33:04 +0000 UTCI definitely think you should react to Rock & Chips next, the prequel of Only Fools and Horses. Only 3 episodes of it as John Sullivan sadly died before anymore could be made
David Ridley
2024-06-10 19:17:16 +0000 UTCYou should start The Thick of It. Political spoof with some of the sharpest dialogue out there.
Corey Williams
2024-06-10 19:12:15 +0000 UTCI agree, I felt like I'd been personally violated and needed a shower afterwards (picture Jim Carey in Ace Ventura in the bath scene). They even tried it with Fawlty Towers but called it Snavely Manor. That only had a pilot aswell.
Andy Legg
2024-06-10 18:58:32 +0000 UTCI think you would like the documentary series on the making of Only fools
BR90s
2024-06-10 18:58:25 +0000 UTCI think KB would love Goodnight Sweetheart.
Steve Read
2024-06-10 18:44:30 +0000 UTCAnything you do with Queen Boomer is a win for me though!
Ged Fazakerley
2024-06-10 18:42:22 +0000 UTCYeah Rock & Chips and Green Green Grass are awful! Wouldnt bother with either.. It will spoil the legacy.
Ged Fazakerley
2024-06-10 18:42:00 +0000 UTCI made it 10 minutes into that pilot before shutting down my PC and doing something else to try and forget I saw it. It's one thing even attempting it in the first place, but then having that cast and STILL fucking it up is quite something. I agree though, that it would be amusing to see what KB thinks of it.
Phil Robinson
2024-06-10 18:41:20 +0000 UTCI'd suggest re-doing the whole thing, if you can get QB in on it that would be great, or maybe just wait a while till you both have more time. Or maybe even just bring her in for the better episode like the specials. I would also suggest you react to the original full uncut episode of A Royal Flush without the laugh track because that one really hits hard, and was so harsh the writer felt he had to cut a lot out and add a laugh track, because the overall feel of the special was so uncomfortable
Jehan Ariyaratnam
2024-06-10 18:34:53 +0000 UTCSuperb reaction KB! I've really enjoyed watching this along with you. I think they wrap up some of the historical narrative with Sleepless in Peckham but I did feel Time on our Hands was the better ending overall. The writing in that 1996 trilogy was peak OFAH and it just felt a tighter and more logical way to close the show. I would recommend Rock and Chips although be prepared for more of a light drama than a sitcom. I wouldn't recommend The Green, Green Grass personally. Loved Boycie and Marlene as support characters in OFAH, but I feel they were terribly watered down for the spin off and the writing isn't nearly as strong. I'd probably not bother with the brief little skits here and there but I'd wholeheartedly recommend the 6-part documentary "The Story of Only Fools and Horses". Interviews and reflections on the show, nicely detailed and you would love it I have no doubt! I'd be delighted if at some point you do a re-reaction with Queen Boomer! I honestly think we'd all be on board with that as you can then watch the show vicariously through her for the very first time. It's probably one of the most endlessly rewatched shows in British television history so I have no doubt, whatever happens, you'll see it at least once more from beginning to end. 🙏
Ash Jeffries
2024-06-10 18:28:10 +0000 UTCKing Boomer, I have loved watching this with you, as I'm sure every one of us has. It was an absolute pleasure. But now I think there is one more episode of Only Fools and Horses you have to watch (that's if you can even make it through the full 22 mins), and that is the unaired pilot episode of the US version (Kings of Van Nuys). It does have Christopher Lloyd as Grandad and John Leguizamo as Del Boy, but, well, I'll say no more. But I think it would be funny to see what you, as an American who loves our most treasured show, thinks of an Americanised version of it. If you ever fancy checking it out, simply look for it on YouTube. All the best, ya Muppet 👍

2024-06-10 18:24:08 +0000 UTCYou could watch the 3 episodes of Rock and Chips after this. It's a prequel to Only Fools starting James Buckley as Delboy.

2024-06-10 18:23:15 +0000 UTCGive rock and chips a watch. Its a prequel(set before Rodney was born) and has James Buckley playing a young Del Boy

2024-06-10 18:21:24 +0000 UTCIt's been amazing to watch all of this with you over the last 18 months KB. You should be proud of these reactions - you really got into the show pretty early on and was loyal to it to the end. Whatever anyone feels about these last 3 post-1996 specials, if you love and care about the show and the characters, there's no way the finale of this didn't move you. It's an enormously touching, low key ending. I think it works well. As for a re-watch with QB, of course we'd all love that - but if it were me, I'd give it a year at least to give some distance. And realistically it's too big an ask, even when PB is a toddler after that amount of time. Perhaps you can work something out, but I don't think anyone who is a parent or knows the score would be expecting that of you both.

2024-06-10 18:21:02 +0000 UTCThe effect this show has is that the more you watch this show, the more you will love it and connect with it, this show is STILL re-running nearly everyday on UK television specifically on a channel called “GOLD”

2024-06-10 18:14:53 +0000 UTCVicar of Dibley has a similar vibe, and it has trigger in it 😉
Alex Venditti
2024-06-10 17:52:51 +0000 UTCRe-watch with QB, definitely! (When you find time, of course). Those that enjoy delayed gratification wouldn’t mind the 2-4 week wait in between each episode. I would, but others wouldn’t.

2024-06-10 17:39:12 +0000 UTCThe royal family could be a good wholesome replacement for only fools I’m sure boomer would like that

2024-06-10 17:36:58 +0000 UTCPersonally I think Rock and Chips is the best spin off. Green Green Grass not quite so good, as the Boycie and Marlene characters always worked best along side the original cast. On a side note, my parents used to go drinking with John Challis (who plays Boycie). Apparently he was a very nice man, although unfortunately there's no wild stories to tell, as he was quite a normal straight laced person.

2024-06-10 17:29:47 +0000 UTCI dont know that it needs a re-react with QB. But I do think she'd find this show wholesome if you guys ever get any free time to yourselves off camera.

Tim Salt (Tim Salt Writes)
2024-06-10 16:47:58 +0000 UTCIt's kind of great that on first watch you don't know where the next killer line is going to come from with this show. Sid's fostertits line is absolutely brilliant. I miss this show. But we always watch it repeatedly, and I suspect you might enjoy it again in the future. Shame they didn't get their fortune back, but I suppose its nice to imagine them and the gang going through business as usual, forever.

2024-06-10 16:28:30 +0000 UTCI think you should slow down, you are always putting out such amazing content, I feel you must be exhausted. Put your prices up a little, you deserve it. Focus on what you want going forward and a smaller community of followers.
Matthew Beckford
2024-06-10 16:26:46 +0000 UTCYou still have the prequel show with young del and his mum, and another spin off show about boycie and marlene

2024-06-10 16:17:41 +0000 UTCIt has been a very long year... Rest in peace to all the characters that made only fools and horses the best show on UK TV all throughout 20 plus years... I agree with rock and chips next on your hit list just need to see if they are still on netflix

2024-06-10 16:05:17 +0000 UTCthe best show of all time, simply incredible, would totally understand if you would want to “Re-react” to this show and i’m sure everyone else would love to see a re-reaction 😊
