The episode of Fools where Rodney has to pretend to be a teenager for a holiday is good
In my imagination Rincewind was always more of a gangly bumbling character than a David Jason one.
My imagination has him as Eric Idle from the Discworld adventure games
Who is Trigger’s mate?
do the boycie laugh quite alot
Always thought Del Boy was a manipulative and selfish person, thinking specifically of him trying to convince Rodney to invest the money they got from the antique watch, something like “before mum died she always said invest it in…” etc. And of course they lost it all. Also in one of the earlier episodes Del Boy shames Rodney for doing drugs in the past and tries to break down his self-esteem in order to persuade him to do something purely for Del Boy’s benefit. I could never shake the feeling that Rodney should move out and start a life away from his brother once he retrained in IT.
OFaH works pretty well as a story of two brothers coming to terms with globalisation in a post-industrial society
I just made the deciding vote
Rumours of much worse than that likely to come out when he dies, isn’t there?
Anyone else primarily coming in here to see if @AQOS has picked Goodnight Sweetheart yet and so read @bugduv’s resulting meltdowns?
… that’s the closing theme.
can you allude to what you mean, I didn’t even know he was a racist until this thread
yewtree type deal?
He sort of did: went to work for his father-in-law’s company.
Yes your spoiler is what I’ve heard, like never going to repeat his shows again stuff.
Buuuut, I mean you hear this stuff sometimes and nothing so pinches of salt all round
I just googled David Jason and rumours and it came up, one of the results was the David Icke forum though
Precisely but then I thought I’d heard some of the guys who’ve definitely been discovered yo be hugely awful were on there too?
On the David Icke forum? I don’t know, people always go on about how he was right about Jimmy Savile but apparently he never mentioned him
Agree with Del’s selfishness - there are loads of episodes where Del ruins Rodney’s chance of progression/love life
