Only Fools & Horses – My Top 10

Undoubtedly, Only Fools and Horses stands as one of the best comedy shows ever produced. However, the three additional specials that followed after the characters became millionaires and the frequent airings on GOLD are gradually diminishing its brilliance. Nevertheless, it remains a remarkable show.

Counting how many times I’ve watched each episode is a tough task, and narrowing down the 64 official episodes to a top 10 “best ever” is even tougher. Nevertheless, I’ll give it a shot. Initially, I’ll list my top ten moments, and then move on to selecting my favorite episodes.

TOP TEN ONLY FOOLS MOMENTS

10) The Vicar’s Hat – Strained Relations
09) Del hang-gliding – Tea for Three
08) Walking in the sunset – Time on Our Hands
07) Blown up coach – Jolly Boy’s Outing
06) Trigger’s Broom – Heroes and Villains
05) Del falling through the bar – Yuppy Love
04) The chandelier – A Touch of Glass
03) Batman & Robin – Heroes and Villains
02) Sex Dolls – Danger UXB
