The script is pretty dodgy in places, the story could do with filling out at some points but the superb acting and the attention to set and costume detail make this a brilliant start to "Only Fools and Horses". I loved every minute!
No extras on the DVD.

This is fun to watch and no mistake.Most of our favorite characters from Only Fools & Horses are present and correct as well as being clearly recognizable.The writing and casting are spot on this comedy-drama.It helps explain why Rodney and Del Boy ended up as they did.There is plenty of gritty realism as well as some bad language.This is not just there for broad laughs in other words.
If John Sullivan hoped to successfully wring one last bit of TV out of the Only Fools & Horses franchise then Rock 'N' Chips fulfills those hopes.It was a good solid bit of British comedy drama that should appeal to fans of Del Boy and Rodney.There are plenty of in-jokes that the large number of fans of Only Fools & Horses should love.
So don't delay- buy today !Amazon are selling it for a very fair price after all !

This is a fantastic prequel to the much loved comedy series Only Fools and Horses. Brilliant acting by Lyndhurst (its good to know that he can play other people).
I really enjoyed this. It is so cleverly written and played out. Definitely a must see for any Only Fools fan - 10 out of 10!
