It was my dad who introduced me to David Jason in only fools and horses. Still to this day my favourite sit com ever. He then introduced me to open all hours and porridge. I cherish those days as a young lad in hysterics on the sofa with him. I live in Australia now but everytime I miss home I just sit and watch a few episodes of only fools or open all hours and I feel better again. Thank you Ronnie and Jason. You are true legends and heroes off mine.

My Nan used to be a very serious person when it came to comedy, wasn't really a laugh out loud kind of person but David Jason's shows used to leave her crying in laughter. Thank you for bringing joy to her life, my life and all my family. Much love to both David Jason and the late great Ronnie Barker!! Anytime I'm having a bad day I'd put on an episode of Porridge or Only Fools and Horses and suddenly the day wouldn't seem so bad 😊

I don't think Ronnie would have ever taken a part in OFAH if it had've been offered to him. In professional terms they were like father and son, and all parents want to give their children freedom in their own projects, rather than accidentally steal their child's glory.

Great point… I always thought Barker would have been excellent as the Trotters’ dad had he not been cast already. The fella who played him was good though tbh. Was amazed Sullivan didn’t write a cameo role for Barker at Rodney’s wedding or even as a crafty con man playing off against Del in the Nags Head. What might have been…
