In celebration of Sir David Jason’s 80th year, A Del of a Life: Lessons I’ve Learned relives Jason’s extraordinary life and career from over 50 years in entertainment.
From a trainee electrician to one of Britain’s most revered and loved actors, Jason shares heartfelt and hilarious wisdom with readers on subjects ranging from family to work, resilience to ebullience.
Told with his characteristic warmth and wit, Jason shines a wonderful new light on the characters and shows that fans have come to love him for, from Del Boy to Granville, Larkin to Frost.

David Jason says “In my first two books, I enjoyed sharing my life with the great British public, and I was overwhelmed by their support and kindness. In my new book, A Del of a Life, I am delighted to share with readers some of the hard-won lessons I’ve learned along the way – how to dream big, how to work hard, and how not to fall through the gap in the pub bar…

A great read and an iconic actor.
My copy appears to have a factual error. On page 179 where reference is made to ‘Minder’ with Denis Waterman and John Thaw. It was George Cole in Minder. John Thaw was in The Sweeny.
Hi,
We were all stumped in the pub last night when someone asked the question
“What year is Del’s Sovereign ring?”
Can anyone help?

Nick
I feel that “The Darling Buds Of May” and “A Touch Of Frost” are David Jason’s best work.
Great shows and great entertainment.
LEGEND.
