WHAT REALLY HAPPENED AT THE ONLY FOOLS AND HORSES REUNION | WEEKLY VLOG

I appeared, fleetingly, in an episode of Fools And Horses. It was the scene in the pub where Rodney and Del Boy attempted to pick me and my mate up. So imagine how excited I was to be invited to a reunion with some of those actors. My thanks to The Only Fools and Horses Appreciation Society.

What fun! The Buster Merryfield impersonator is spot on.

[@GabberHeadzNL]

No 'e ain't e' is if anything a miles off even the most common phrase the famous "during the war" is so distorted when this half a try uncle Albert is having a go at it!

[@Edgel-in6bs]

Agree - I originally thought this was an early 90s one!

[@MrStevenastley]

I'd have to disagree I'm afraid. Way off.

[@JohnJohnson-tw8qk]

I thought it was uncle Albert when I first saw him

[@michaelasquith]

"During the war, I was torpedoed, dive- bombed, and I still came back. Boomerang Trotter always comes back".

[@derek-thomasheffernan.3990]

"Oh I don't know, I never smoked AstroTurf" 🤣 The greatest joke I've ever heard on TV 👍 Your two reactions were classic!

[@97channel]

10 seconds in, and I can't go on before saying OH MY GOD! That was spooky as hell, I thought it must have been some old footage of Buster Merryfield! I just cannot get over that!

[@Escapetheratrace-ji6rx]

I thought that was the Real Buster....what a fantastic impersonation

[@typicallondongal]

Wow amazing was a kid and so pleased to see you now brings back good memories aswell and my son loves it too now x

[@Scarlett777Red]

Thank you for sharing this,having heard the build up on your show,it’s great to see it all play out....I’m discovering that I am a voyeur of sorts because I’m loving all the ‘behind the scenes’ footage! Xx

[@simulation8083]

Absolutely superb. Just watched your episode again today. Fantastic

[@queendeirdre7436]

That Uncle Albert is amazing! Huge fan of the show! Have watched every season at least 5 times! 🇮🇪

Great fun so lovely to remember fools and horses the best can see you and friends had a great time 😀😀😀

[@laz1946]

Wow! Amazing! I'm a real fan of Only Fools. I have the entire box set and re watch them all the time. It's timeless and the best comedy out there. I've told you Jo previously that i instantly recognised you when watching your episode, so that's a compliment!! Brilliant vlog! Keep em cumin!! It's cushty!

[@juliebarrett1787]

Oh I love these vlogs Jo....I watch and then can't wait for the next one ..!

That Uncle Albert's a good lookalike

[@ripsnort8194]

Awesome

[@Victory987]

I was Fooled by uncle Albert. Bravo, he's definitely a Diamond Geezer.

[@marchampson006]

I bet that was a great reunion for you Jo and to see all those fans that have travelled far and wide to attend it. As one of the visitors said its a timeless classic show. Good to see Matilda being her usual self on and off air look forward to barking hours on the piazza soon. Marc in Bletchley Towers xx

[@harrykaine]

This was so lovely. Like being transported back in time. The guy who played boycie mentioned he had done many of these reunions before. Did you get invited to those too? To say Caroline and yourself havent seen each other for 37yrs and how pretty you both still look, all i can say is WOW!

[@MiddleAgedMinx]

Thankyou xxxx

[@barryotoole6990]

Looks great fun, it was super that you both found time to meet up. In Go West Young man you both were giggling too. Thanks for the clip Young Girls

Blimey..thankyou Jay jay

[@darryllharden9141]

I Quite enjoyed this video blog Middle Aged Minx.

[@adammorgan5327]

No way. Possibly the most beautiful actress to ever appear in Only Fools. Talk about a scene stealer. And haven't really aged. ♥️♥️♥️

[@suzyrobinson6322]

Great memories of that show, hilarious, great vlog.

[@judewebb5694]

Just great to watch that x

[@paulplaydon]

That's one of my all time fav OF&H scenes, where Rodney says: "I dunno, I've never smoked AstroTurf" :) Think I know the whole episode word for word... Brilliant!

[@deborahkay7819]

That was so good! Now I want to find the series

[@shafiq1537]

it was a great episode.ive watched it somany times and dont get bored of it

[@blacky0121]

One of my favourite shows of all time. They don't make them like they use too. "OMG I sound like my dad"😂😂😂

[@sharondavies5100]

Matilda is so funny Jo. Didn’t realise what beautiful markings she has. Great Vlog as usual!

[@wingchun9812]

Excellent! Thank you X

[@larrimos]

Jo, Thank you for the longer episodes. The content of these vlogs is spot on. I always look forward to the next installment (leave them wanting more 😉)

[@MiddleAgedMinx]

thank you so much...Istill learning

[@larrimos]

Jo Good - Middleagedminx You are doing great love. If you could find other popular you tube channels to do some cross channel content it could help greatly with promotion of your channel and theirs. Although your channel is growing by leaps and bounds and is likely to continue to do so with such entertaining content. Your friend ~ Larry from Lexington 😎

[@Paul.in.Ireland]

Wow! Excellent video, thanks for bringing happy memories back... I remember my late mum and myself in floods of tears watching only fools every week!

[@ajs2120]

Great video, good to see them all looking well. Looks like that's Westpoint?? Some iconic raves held there back in the day!

[@jamesward1056]

'We came over to buy Rodney a new tennis bat.' 'It's a racquet!' 'It is the prices they charge darling!' John Sullivan was a genius.

[@mistofoles]

Trigger appeared in the very first episode of OFAH, and Boycie was in the second episode. Denzil didn't appear until the third series (specifically , the episode called "WHO'S A PRETTY BOY?" which also featured the one and only appearance in the series of Denzil's wife, Corrine played by the late Eva Mottley ).

[@hullconnora]

My grandad loved only fools, so does my dad, and I’m the third generation who is also a fan 🙌🏻

[@michaelasquith]

I am a big fan of Only Fools, And Horses, too. It is legendary, and like a fine wine, gets better with age.

[@TheBroadcastBusiness]

Great videos Jo! Just don't let Ray know you self shoot! Really fun insight into your wonderful life! Steve & Francine x

[@MiddleAgedMinx]

Im so chuffed you two have subscribed! thank you x

[@bighendo7]

Jo Good - Middleagedminx Fantastic! So Nostalgic and Go West Young Man is an absolutely brilliant episode!!!! 😂😎😎👍

[@Puppetgirl93]

Gosh you and Caroline look super lovely! You both haven’t changed a bit!

[@kevinbishop5556]

Brilliant video, both women are hilarious and still looking young as ever ♥️

[@Rockaria23]

Would love to see a Crossroads Vlog. That's where i always remember you from.

[@timweston9151]

Nice to see Nikki and Michelle reunited again. So was it Hot Rod, the grass smoking tennis player or Concorde pilot Del you fancied Jo aka Nikki? 😂 Best episode of season 1 for me 👍 Jolly Boys Outing and Dates are my favourites. They're all good though!... Even the episode The Russians are coming! Such a shame so many of the cast are no longer with us. Great show but think they should have stopped when they became millionaires, that was the whole point to it!!

[@tony0977]

Hi Jo, I was ten when I watched Go West. When Del lost your number I really felt his pain. I don’t think I’d ever recover from that. That’s like winning the lottery then losing the ticket. I also fancied the pants off you even at ten. I still fancy you now actually x

[@MiddleAgedMinx]

ha! ha! Thanks Tony!

[@tony0977]

Jo Good - Middleagedminx ❤️😊

[@ScottCornwall]

Brilliant Jo! I love that episode of Only Fools and Horses and that scene of the four of you in the nightclub!

[@09weenic]

You and Caroline were brilliant in the OFAH episode Go West Young Man - one of my most favourite Only Fools episodes

[@benmatheson1189]

You was in the episode when rodney pretends to be a tennis player

[@TheRealMatthewEarley]

That’s unreal. Buster Merryfield from the grave.

[@jogolock1190]

Got admit you were quite a stunner in Go West Young Man.

[@zapplecore]

Loved this video. Wished you had said astro turf though lol

[@robertbiggins3693]

Very good uncle Albert spot on.

[@Colsoloact-po9wv]

You both have hardly changed....that was a great episode you were in.......he was a good Buster wasn't he!? Yh there's no better sitcom ever than Fools & Horses! Thanks for posting this!! X

[@barfy75]

Loved you in your episode of The Detectives - "Cardiac Arrest". Episode 2 of season 5, for those that don't know; recommend you seek it out if you're a fan of classic British comedy. Thanks Joanne x

[@MiddleAgedMinx]

Cant believe you remember that ! x

[@garybristow218]

Oh Jo...the disappointment when it’s all over and I have to wait another week for the next vlog! Laying in bed watching with the dogs as you’re signing men’s chests is a surreal Sunday morning...but a good one! Keep em coming!

[@MiddleAgedMinx]

Do you think todays actresses would sign chests! Oh what a lark! it was the best day ever xxxx

[@garybristow218]

Jo Good - Middleagedminx Jo....you wouldn’t get near today’s actresses! They’d have Kevin Costner style bodyguards speaking into hidden microphones in there lapel! U have Matilda guarding you from the Swans....much more unique!

[@robertt4176]

French and Saunders once signed my t shirt lol great Vlog as always jo

[@sheilapearce8561]

Another great installment...Matilda is so nonchalant, like a canine mix of husband, child and Mother-in-Law!

[@glamdolly30]

Great vlog and how fantastic that you are part of Only Fools history! I did a double take when I saw Uncle Albert looking so well, as Buster Merryfield the actor who played him died in 1999! I met him when I was a producer on The British Comedy Awards the year before he passed (alas he had a fall as he walked up to the stage to collect an award), and he was a lovely old gent - I'm sure he'd be thrilled to be impersonated so accurately!

[@MiddleAgedMinx]

I honestly thought it was Buster who I worked with in his VERY first job!

[@glamdolly30]

He is an astonishingly good imposter! What was Buster's very first TV job Jo, I'm intrigued? Btw, I just wikipedia-ed him (!) and apparently all his life he refused to reveal his christian name, instead using the nickname Buster given to him by his grandfather, (because at birth he weighed 9lbs!) After his death, it was revealed for the first time he was named Harry after his Dad. Harry Merryfield is a great name, but it doesn't have the same wonderful ring as Buster Merryfield! Another fabulous vlog Jo - please keep 'em coming! X PS Matilda is ADORABLE!

[@glamdolly30]

Oh, and PPS - you didn't 'appear fleetingly' in Only Fools - you had a proper scene with its two leading men, none other than Sir David Jason and Nicholas Lyndhurst, that's HUGE! We women are WAAY too self deprecating about our achievements, JEEZE, sing out sister! X HERE'S THE HISTORIC CLIP - WHETHER YOU LIKE IT OR NOT, YOU ARE A SITCOM LEGEND! kzbin.info/www/bejne/pYTWY4WhYsSXhpY

[@MiddleAgedMinx]

he was a bank manager..his first theatre job was Connaught Worthing

[@satchfan2010]

''I've never smoked astro turf''. HAHA!!

[@craigboi9698]

both still look quite beautiful now x

[@suzelundberg691]

Jo, I thought that was Buster Merryfield too! Gordie said "didn't he die?", we were both fooled! Haha! Amazing! It was a brilliant vlog again, I always judge things by how long I want to watch them, not only can I not wait for the next one but then I'm dissapointed when it finishes. So there you are, you're a success with me. Can't wait to see your mum in the car wash 🚗🚗🚗🚗 Sue on the river xxxxx ⛵

[@MiddleAgedMinx]

You will love the cash wash vlog...i have watched it 8 x times whilst editing and cant stop laughing

[@JohnJohnson-tw8qk]

Beautiful gorgeous ladies still ❤️

Same for me!!!

Hi Jo, this was fab! Has there ever been a 'Crossroads' convention? Am showing my age now! Xx

[@rainbowaurora1]

Oh my goodness. . this is when my Sunday starts now Jo. Loving these vlogs but now have to wait another week 😔 Matilda makes me laugh, just ignoring everything you say to her! She was watching those swans intently, no idea why😀 amazing to see so many people coming to meet the Only Fools And Horses cast . Can't wait for the next vlog, you have over 2k subcribers now! WOW xx

[@MiddleAgedMinx]

next week you will see my 93 yr old mother in a car wash with Matilda...its truly the funniest thing I have ever filmed x

Holy fuck! Thought that was real buster Merryfield 😳, so damn like him 😳😳😳😬

The guy who is playing uncle Albert chould be his twin he is that good.

[@anthonyrichards1454]

Great video, thanks for uploading this! I prefer astroturf myself

[@englishmaninengland1451]

MiddleAgedMinx is posh totty. Only Fools & Horses is my favourite comedy of all time. Did Uncle Albert sink the ship? During the war........ lol Uncle Albert lookalike is amazing. Bonjour, a bit of french knocks em bandy.

[@BoxxerCore]

I was just watching S01E02 and I paused it at the scene in the bar, just be before Rodney says he has never smoked astroturf. I was curious how old they both were in season 1 and ended up here, hopping from one link to another.

[@shaunhamley7694]

The episode was called Go West Young Man and NOT ''Way Out West' as Jo said. Love OFAH !!

[@eddherring4972]

She said Go Wast Young Man!

Thanks Jo, love you 😘

[@mistofoles]

John Challis didn't actually appear in OFAH until the second episode, not the very first one as he said. It was "GO WEST, YOUNG MAN", the same episode the ladies were in !

[@Welwyn22]

Actually he did appear. He was the owner of the Jaguar that Del and Rodney were driving around in that night. "It's been so long since Rodney had a bit on the side he didn't know they'd moved it!"
