How we love to see new episodes of Only Fools and Horses. Realistically its probably never going to happen again.
But one thing that continues to keep any avid fan of Only Fools and Horses excited is the discovery of filmed scenes that ended up on the cutting room floor.
You can only guess what this scene was about.
Any ideas how this fitted into an episode? Apparently they were filming a scene where Del is discussing with Rodney about his “little problem”. Then Rodney pushed Del into a pub. The scene never made the final cut though.
Thanks to Paul Blackmore who took these during filming of a long forgotten deleted scene back in 2001.
What makes you think this is a deleted scene? Just looks like the actors talking during a break in filming. In the first picture there’s even what looks like a set guy with a walkie talkie.
Yes 100% a deleted scene. They done so many takes and were filming. I was on the other side of the road and could hear their dialogue. This scene made the all fans laugh. Shame it wasn’t aired. Imagine how much more scenes like this that may exist!
Oh and just to add. The guy with the walkie talkie was part of the security team. They were strolling and chatting on their way back to the bottom of the road, for yet another take of this scene.
This pic is not from 1996. Del never wore a long white coat in the 96′ Christmas trilogy episodes.
this is from 2001.
I hope they still have the footage, one day for a DVD release.
Apparently 20mins unseen 2001 special as John over wrote. Wouldn’t it be wonderful for all fans to have of they could see us now released again with the extra 20mins. The pics above look great!
That’s what I thought, Neil.
Are you sure it’s 1996, it looks more like the 2001 Xmas special if they could see us now
