Best Pirce 🎁 Only Fools and Horses: The 80s Specials (Blu-ray Box Set) Tessa Peake-Jones, Gwyneth Strong 😀

All five Christmas specials of John Sullivan’s popular comedy starring David Jason, Nicholas Lyndhurst and Buster Merryfield. In ‘To Hull and Back’ (1985) Del (Jason) and Rodney (Lyndhurst) think they’ve come up trumps when they’re offered the chance to travel to Amsterdam and collect some diamonds on behalf of Boycie (John Challis). But things are never that simple, and the boys soon find that they have Chief Inspector Slater (Jim Broadbent) hot on their trail, making their passage to mainland Europe very difficult indeed. In ‘A Royal Flush’ (1986) when Rodney begins dating the Duke of Mallbrey’s daughter (Sarah Duncan), Del is on hand with tickets to the opera – the only problem is that Del insists on accompanying them! Later on in the week, when Rodders is invited to a shooting weekend, the last thing he needs is for Del to arrive with a sawn-off shotgun. In ‘The Frog’s Legacy’ (1987) Del and Rodney seem to have struck it rich when it transpires that one of their mum’s gentlemen friends, known as Freddy ‘the Frog’, died leaving them a fortune in stolen gold bullion. Now all they have to do is locate it! In ‘Dates’ (1988) The Trotters take a few days off because, for a change, the business is doing rather well. Uncle Albert (Merryfield) is planning to celebrate his birthday in style while Del joins a dating agency and meets an out-of-work actress, Raquel (Tessa-Peake Jones), who he could see himself spending a lot of time with. Finally, in ‘The Jolly Boys’ Outing’ (1989) Del, Rodney, Uncle Albert, Trigger (Roger Lloyd-Pack) and Boycie embark on their annual outing to Margate, but end up stranded when their coach explodes. Meanwhile, Rodney finds his marriage placed in jeopardy, and Del meets Raquel again.
