What to expect
The complete soundtracks of the fifth and sixth series of the much-loved comedy show – plus Christmas specials
From 1981 to 2003, Only Fools and Horses followed the lives of lovable south London wheeler-dealer Del Boy and his hapless but loyal younger brother Rodney – winning the nation’s heart in the process, along with a multitude of awards. Now, almost 45 years since it was first broadcast, it remains as popular as ever and it regularly tops the list of UK’s greatest ever TV shows.
This cushty collection features a wealth of memorable moments including Del and Raquel’s first meeting, and Rodney and Cassandra’s wedding. In addition, the Trotters become involved in a hold-up at their local supermarket, Del reinvents himself as a yuppy, the boys acquire an explosive box of inflatable sex dolls and Rodney wins a holiday to Mallorca – but there’s a catch… And there’s festive fun in ‘A Royal Flush’, ‘The Frog’s Legacy’, ‘Dates' and ‘The Jolly Boys’ Outing’, as Rodney romances an aristocrat’s daughter, Del hunts for buried treasure, the duo host a surprise birthday party for Uncle Albert, and Del encounters his lost love.
Created and written by John Sullivan and starring David Jason as Del Boy, Nicholas Lyndhurst as Rodney and Buster Merryfield as Uncle Albert, these timeless episodes are the absolute crème de la menthe.
