Product Description
Amazon.co.uk Review
The 80s yielded few more memorable comic characters than Derek "Del Boy" Trotter, the obstinately proud salesman of goods of dodgy quality and even dodgier legality. Humiliating his dopey brother, whining grandfather and leech-like uncle, he insisted that "this time next year we'll be millionaires". What made Only Fools and Horses so appealing was the very real affection that writer John Sullivan felt for all these characters and, with stories that were often as moving as they were hilarious, the show was both a celebration and critique of Thatcherite Britain.

Much of the first five series is on video, but for those who feel embarrassed travelling with a TV and video recorder on their lap, their scripts now exist in this more portable volume. Without visuals and vocals, they may not make many converts, but highlights abound, such as Rodney's date with a policewoman and a slasher movie send-up, and the book ends with the moving episode where Del Boy turns down a job in Australia.

Mildly let down by a rather meagre two-page Trotter to English dictionary, this is nevertheless a treat. "Pas de calais" as Del would say. --Stephen Portlock --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

Book Jacket
Join the family Trotter with their get-rich-quick scheming and back-of-a-lorry sales pitch. The Rothschilds of Peckham, otherwise known as Trotter's Independant Traders (or TIT for short) cause untold trouble--and laughs--in their bid to become millionaires.

This collection covers the first five series' of the hilarious BBC sitcom and has new material, including the Trotter Dictionary, revealing Del's novel command of the English (and French) language.

Five hundred years ago this was a green and peaceful area. The old Earl of Peckham had a castle where the Quick-Fit Exhaust Centre now stands. Flaxen-haired maidens used to dance around the village maypole of an evening.

And then one fateful medieval day the Trotter clan arrived in a stolen Zephyr. Before you knew it the flaxen-haired maidens were up the spout, the old Earl had been sold some hooky armour and someone nicked the maypole

One hundred years after that the Black Death arrived in England--the people of Peckham thought their luck had changed.
