    Why am I guessing it's either "Keeping Up Appearances" or "Only Fools And Horses"?! Just making a wild guess, anyway. Glad you're enjoying the show, whatever it may be!!

    Frequently trot this fact out. Today’s no different. Took three series before ‘Only Fools and Horses’ really took off to become the massive hit it was. In today’s terms it wouldn’t get past the first series. Sitcoms (ditto dramas) take time to build and need to be nurtured. Trust the writer(s).

    When they first brought in the Only Fools And Horses theme song in series two, I genuinely assumed the lyrics were 'say Monday feet, Bookie Street', as in Del starting the week by trudging to put a bet on. Via his feet.

    Britons of a certain age refer to this as the "Trigger's Broom Paradox", after a character from a comedy TV Series "Only Fools and Horses". Trigger, who worked as a street sweeper, got an award from the City Council for maintaining the same sweeping brush for twenty years (though the broom has had 17 new heads and 14 new handles).

    The last few episodes of Only Fools and Horses are sort of dreadful in that "everyone in the TV show Doctor Who knows who Doctor Who is and they either love him or are terrified of him", back patting way, but they are also sort of wonderful and the happy/sad ending does feel earned.

    The Only Fools And Horses chandelier scene was in an early series, when the show’s future wasn’t secure and money was tight. And since glass breaks, they could only afford one take. Nicholas Lyndhurst was told that if he laughed / botched the scene in *any* way, the show was toast there and then. 😲
