Only fools and horses is the best British comedy ever made in my opinion. Based in the south London areas of Deptford and Peckham it follows the lives of Del Boy and Rodney Trotter, two wheeler dealer type businessmen who run their business trotters independent traders from the back of their three wheeled reliant robin van. The pair are always shifting dodgy goods and will do almost anything to earn a few quid. The show concentrates mainly on these two characters who live with their granddad in a 3 bedroom flat in Nelson Mandela house. There are many other characters who feature in the show and they are usually found in the nags head pub, Del and Rodney's local.


Characters:
Del Boy David Jason
Rodney Nicholas Lyndhurst
Uncle Albert Buster Merryfield
Grandad Lennard Pearce
Raquel (Dels wife) Tessa-Peake Jones
Cassandra (Rodneys girlfriend) Gwyneth Strong
Damien (Dels son) Ben Smith
Trigger (friend) Roger Lloyd-Pack
Boycie (friend John Challis
Denzil (friend) Paul Barber
Mickey (Rodneys friend) Patrick Murray
Mike (nags head landlord) Kenneth McDonald
Marlene (Boycies wife) Sue Holderness
Sid (friend) Roy Heather
Slater (policeman) Jim Broadbent

The sitcom ran from 1981 to 1996 and 2001 to 2003, in total there were 7 series and 64 episodes - all of which are on this DVD set. Everyone loves only fools and horses so it would make a great birthday or Christmas present for somebody. Below I have listed all 64 episodes and my favourite ones have a star sign next to them; there really are some great episodes.

My favourite characters from the show are Rodney, trigger and granddad because I believe they have the best lines and catchphrases. Granddads famous line to Rodney when him and Mickey Pearce say they are doing up houses in Spain cracks me up e every time 'what ya got a wendy house?' referring to the fact that they have little money and think they have cracked the property development business. Triggers ongoing problem with Rodney's name is also extremely funny, he always calls him Dave and even when Rodney confronts him about it he still says 'are you sure?.'

Thanks for taking the time to read my review of only fools and horses the complete box set.

A helpful review but, as others have stated, so much more could have been added. As it is, its still helpful to me.

Once you take away the lists here this review really gives very little information whatsoever about the Only Fools and Horses box set. As anonymili states below me; there is very little personal opinion here and your review is therefore not greatly helpful for those looking to make purchasing decisions about this box set. I agree with the sugestions that anonymili has given here and agree that it would be much more helpful for you to include this further information.

anonymili 17.03.2008 16:37

Sorry for the rating but there's barely any personal opinion in your review, it's mostly lists of characters and lists of episodes titles, which one can find anywhere. Would be helpful to say how much you pay for the set and where from and any extras on the DVDs as well as your opinion on the whole thing :)
