Description

Twenty-five million viewers watched the swansong of Only Fools and Horses on BBC1 over Christmas 1996, breaking the BBC's previous audience records. This work is an affectionate tribute to the much-loved show, covering all aspects of its amazing 16-year run, from casting to filming, with in-depth interviews with the stars and a complete episode guide. As well as back-stage facts and anecdotes, this book captures the spirit of survival in the face of adversity and inimitable humour which characterized the series and marked it out as a comedy classic.
