Don’t forget fantastic roles in The Darling Buds of May and A Touch of Frost. Thank you for all your fantastic and memorable performances.

[@MarkoPoloCB]

Fortunately as someone in their 50's I grew up watching this guy deliver legendary performances and my kids have been brought up with us all watching this guy, particularly Only Fools & Horses. Hopefully generations to come will also appreciate the classic humour and delivery that David, Nicholas, Lennard, Buster and the whole team gave us.

OFAH and Del Boy are not just up there with the best… we are talking about the very best…. Ingrained into English society the writing and the performances will forever be remembered by any that were there - when we talk about Del Boy, we are talking top 5 best ever sitcom characters ever - OFAH Top 5 British comedies ever…. As the years progress it might be easy to forget but please go back and watch, the writing and the performances are absolutely incredible and for my money there will never be another show like it. RIP John Sullivan

Sir David is one of the best because when you watch him you see the character and not the actor, but there is one little thing he does that comes out every now and then when he has someone over, Arkwright, Rodney and Mullet has had that look when he turns his head slightly on a little angle and turns it to his left shoulder with that little smile, Got You.

I don't know what stories you are talking about but I will say that NO human is perfect. And there are also vindictive people in this life who will use those imperfections in life to try and hurt you. Of course, that doesn't mean we are ok with anything but mindlessly going for people because they aren't perfect in their acts or life is often pure hypocrisy.
