    The copy above has vanished, took me a few hours to find a copy. Unfortunately it has Russian subtitles hardcoded but better than nothing.

    I wish they would release that “Selection Box” on DVD either as a stand-alone DVD or as a bonus feature on one of the future DVD or Blu-Ray releases.
    The BBC released the “Dad’s Army” Selection Box on both Video and DVD – it was a stand-alone VHS and a bonus feature on one of the “Dad’s Army” DVD’S so why can’t that be the case with “Only Fools” Selection Box?
    Surely, “Only Fools” is more popular than “Dad’s Army”?

    By the way, My favourite lost episode or short episode is the 1982 “Christmas Trees” Sketch!

    Wish they made the “Christmas Tree” story as part of Series 2 as a full 30 minute episode rather than an eight minute sketch – would have been nice to see a bit more of this hilarious story-line!

    It would be great if more scenes or episodes were found and uncovered.

    An observation most of you probably already know, but just in case…The Vicar is the same Vicar we see in the episode Strained Relations who loses his hat!

      Well spotted. I’ve always wondered about a photo on the old VHS series 2 case. It’s obviously from an unused scene from ‘ashes to ashes’ as it shows Del holding the urn stood with Rodney outside a church with a vicar looking on. Just wondered if anyone else has seen this picture or even the missing scene?

      • Lee says:

        I’ve noticed this, never seen the scene before! Talking of missing scenes, do you have any of the uncut episodes?

        • Rich says:

          No, sorry. The empty video case is the only thing I’ve got left from the videos. I regret not looking after them now.

          • Cushty says:

            Looking on eBay there’s an OFAH selection box VHS that’s 30 mins of celebrities talking about the show in 2000, with clips of the show. Is anyone able to put it on youtube?

      • Rob M says:

        I have this video VHS of it, but dont worry – you haven’t missed anything – there is no scene on the video tape that contains a vicar looking at Del and Rodney.

        the episode on the VHS home video release is exactly what they show on UK GOLD.

        no vicar scene.

        But I understand what you mean, that photo on the VHS box of the vicar is interesting.

        • Cushty says:

          Sorry Rob I should of been clearer. I wasn’t looking for the vicar scene I just wanted to watch the selection box programme. I changed the subject. I don’t have UK Gold so have never seen it.

          • Dawud says:

            i have that on video, it was televised in 96 along with the trilogy. I tried putting it on youtube but it got taken off immediately
