“You little plonker” “Engaged more times than a switchboard” Brilliant writing by John!

[@Beautyinthebreakdown.]

Hands down the best show ever made.. nothing has or will ever top it.. it’s comic genius… the writing.. the actors were completely perfect for the role. It’s just pure genius.

Best comic character ever!

[@sliemm1]

Without a doubt one of the most well-crafted British comedies ever broadcast, way ahead of its time. The casting, the dialogue, the timing, the characters and storylines were all exemplary. Decades later and there's still been nothing like it. Thanks for these great memories.

[@MarkHarrison733]

It was an unfunny racist series.

[@leejeffrey6672]

John Sullivans comedy writing genius is really apparent in the episode " Strained Relations ". Leonard Pierce who played grandad had unexpectedly passed away so John Sullivan, at short notice not only wrote the very sad episode of Grandads funeral where Dels speech to Rodney moved us to tears but at the same time he introduced a completely new character in Uncle Albert where he had us crying with laughter.

[@hopeayiasoumi27]

My oldest brother absolutely loved only fools and horses and had the complete dvd set of all the series, watching these compilations from the show remind me of him. He absolutely loved all of the old British tv shows. Only fools and horses, Steptoe and son and On the Buses wee his favourites along with Porridge and open all hours. Unfortunately my brother died too soon before his time but these memories remind me of him and I’m going to use them to think of him in a positive way rather then in a bad way

Nah mate, life is what u make it, we have modern medicine, shopping online in 24 hours at your door, on demand films and TV 24/7, mobile phones, and minimum wage in the UK. Compare that to 1982, we had worse medicine, no online orders, no on demand films, no mobiles, no minimum wage, and people like Jimmy Saville and Rolf Harris on our TV screen. You may prefer all that, but every era has good and bad things, I am so glad I was born in 1993. We all should appreciate the hand we're dealt!

@@davidjonmoxleyskipp230 Yeah but back then people were happy with the simple pleasures of life..... Now if you haven't got it instantly then it just won't do. Back then kids used to go outside, now they just want a phone or Xbox, so that they can be 'connected' or wired like everyone. No online orders? Wel yea people used to go out. It's leading to the death of the high street. On demand films? Yea every film you want at the touch of a button, so everyone binge watches everything until there is nothing left to watch, because everything is instant. No mobiles? It wasn't any problem, people used to go see their mates if they wanted to talk, or use a landline. Now all we gotta do is sit on the settee and everything is at our finger tips - yeah that's brilliant isn't it. Why go out at all? Modern medicine?
