Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review
Voted Britain's best ever sitcom in millennium polls, Only Fools and Horses has a muddled history on video. This release should make things clearer, containing for the first time the complete fifth series on a double-video. Dating from 1986, the episodes have previously appeared on the compilations Tea for Three and Watching the Girls Go By.

Like so much great comedy, pathos lies behind these cleverly scripted, deceptively straightforward tales, continuing the tradition of lovable rogues in BBC sitcoms from Steptoe and Son and Porridge. David Jason's Del Boy dreams of becoming a millionaire, "this time next year", but we know life isn't like that. In "From Prussia with Love", Del, kid-brother Rodney (Nicholas Lyndhurst) and Uncle Albert (Buster Merryfield) replay Three Men and a Baby , while "The Miracle of Peckham" raises the church roof. "The Longest Night" has our trio as prisoners of the world's most useless criminal, while Rodney has an unhappy encounter with a sunbed in "Tea For Three". The gormless one turns unlikely film-maker, resulting in a "Video Nasty", before the series ends with "Who Wants to be a Millionaire?", testing family loyalties when Del is offered the chance of a lifetime. Essentially British and very re-watchable, Only Fools and Horses deserves the description classic comedy. --Gary S. Dalkin

Synopsis
'From Prussia With Love' is the story of a German girl who turns up at the Nag's Head. 'The Miracle of Peckham' sees Del discovering that the statue of the Virgin Mary has been spotted weeping. 'The Longest Night' tells of a supermarket raid as Del and his family are out shopping. 'Tea For Three' finds Del tampering with the sunbed controls. 'Video Nasty' finds Rodney getting a grant to make a community film. 'Who Wants To Be A Millionaire' sees Del's pal Jumbo Mills back from Australia.
