How it could look in the prequel
Only Fools and Horses Star David Jason has given hint to a possible comeback for Only Fools as a Prequel.
For many years rumours have been heard of Sullivan writing a sequel.
So what is actually known?
Well apart from it being confirmed that it is in writting very little.
It is based in the 1960’s and Del is a Mod teenager.
According to the Sun on 29th November 2006:
STONE me, Rodders! Telly favourite Sir David Jason is set to return to Only Fools And Horses in the long-awaited prequel.
Show creator John Sullivan has finally started work on the series charting Del’s early life and Sir David has hinted he will make a guest appearance.
He could play a present-day Del Boy in flash-forward scenes or even an elderly relative like Grandad.
A source close to John said yesterday: “They’ve really laid Only Fools to rest, but John’s had a twinkle in his eye about the prequel for a few years now.”
John has been busy working on Only Fools spin-off The Green, Green Grass, but has already started planning for Once Upon A Time In Peckham.
A TV insider said: “David is extremely fond of Del Boy and John Sullivan.
“He’s made it clear he would like to take a cheeky part in any future comedy.
“He could be an aged relative or Del Boy now in any flash-forward scenes.”
So we have decided to guess on how things might be.
When asked about plans for an Only Fools reunion, Sir David, 66, said: “Ah, you’ll have to ask John Sullivan about that.”
And asked if he was keen to return as Del Boy, he beamed: “I’m afraid I can’t speak about that yet.”
Last night, a BBC insider said: “We’re looking forward to seeing the scripts.”
I think the BBC should play some more repeats of the Trotters I think it would be great if they would play some more Only Fools and Horses.for example Del boy falls through the bar in Yuppy love or a certain singer who can’t pronounce his rs or lusty Linda and Erotic estella in Danger UXD.And the time when Del had entered one of Rodney’s paintings into an art competition so they won a holiday to spain and Rodders had to pretend to be 14 or the time when Del boy and Rodders were dressed up as Batman and Robin Yes! and we ask to be put through to the broken down whilst dressed as a couple of prats department! Please BBC please bring back Hooky Street Gary Newton
