Amazon.co.uk Review

Only Fools and Horses is perhaps the last great and universally popular British sitcom. Series 4 reached 1985; Grandad has sadly passed on, to be replaced at Nelson Mandela House by Uncle Albert (Buster Merryfield). Only Fools and Horses improved with age and the fourth series was still confined to the half-hour format, is good but not vintage (that occurred during Delboy's "Yuppy" years). Episodes such as "It's Only Rock'n'Roll", in which Rodney joins a band, show all the failings sitcoms usually expose when getting to grips with such alien subject matter: the situations have yet to involve the full complement of the entire Nag's Head ensemble and there are still occasional disturbing racial references. However, Uncle Albert's introduction does bring the series up a notch, as his furtive brandy-swilling, yarn-spinning and doddery bungling swiftly get on Delboy and Rodney's wick (though he's not without some cleverly introduced pathos), while episodes such as "Watching the Girls Go By" and "As One Door Closes" build effectively up to the sort of big, laugh-out-loud final twists that would become the series' trademark.

On the DVD: full screen, no special features, sadly, except scene selection. --David Stubbs

4.0 out of 5 stars Don't be a plonker all your life and buy this DVD., 16 Jan 2002
Dodgy Video Disc it most certainly ain't. I have series 1-3 and 5 on video and now series 4 which this DVD is. Out of the 5 series this one is one of the best. It features the classic episodes where they boys look after Boycies dog for a while and Uncle Albert gets frisky. Also the episode where they chase after a rare butterfly and Rodney has to get in the pond after it. Yep theres plenty of rib ticklers in this series and to say theres no features then someones telling you porkies Rodney. Why, well the episodes are chaptered and you can go straight to you favorite scenes. But other than that theres nowt else. So please BBC give us some out-takes etc and other stuff.

4.0 out of 5 stars end of one legend,the launch of another , 18 Jun 2007
By sean paul mccann "mccanns23" (ireland) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)      
series 4 of the series was released in 1985 and brought us uncle albert for the first time as a replacement of sorts for grandad who died prior to the filming of this and the show also acknowledges this by having a funeral for him in the second episode,the show could easily have grandad with another grandad but respect was shown for actor lennard pearce,and when he died the character died,so grandads brother albert showed up for the funeral and ended up staying with the family.
Series four has some classic moments such as when the family look after boycies dog and mess it up and albert has to go to hospital as a result,del thinking he is the father to the girl that rodney is dating is another gem and del managing the music band that rodney is in is yet again another classic.
The series final episode 'as one door closes' is a bit hit and miss but from here the show grew from strength to strength and alberts character was a man that filled grandads shoes brilliantly,essential in as much as all only fools releases are.

4.0 out of 5 stars Why do Only Fools and Horses (have no extras?), 25 Sep 2001
By A Customer
I have got the first three series DVDs of Only Fools and Horses and I laughed through them again, after viewing them countless times before. This is classic British comedy that will always make you laugh. However I am getting increasingly upset about the lack of extras included on the disc. The "Father Ted" DVD shows us that we can even have an audio commentry included in a sit-com.

It must be seen as a warning to people who buy this DVD that you are only getting a video quality picture, just one thats more durable than standard VHS.

Still, all in all, a great DVD due more to the basic content than any extras and still a worthy purchase for any die hard fans.
