Del\u2019s dopey younger brother, Rodney is enjoying himself on the site, notching up 15 thousand followers.<\/p>\n<p>Fans of the show enjoy an exchange of quotes and conversations between our loveable characters from John Sullivan\u2019s creation.<\/p>\n<h3>Celebrity appeal and official Only Fools actors joining in the fun<\/h3>\n<p>The parody accounts have increased in popularity so much, that the odd celebrity, most notably Ricky \u2018The Hitman\u2019 Hatton \u2013 former welter weight champion follows the lucky fans\u2019 Twitter accounts. Ricky of course is a huge fan of the show himself and regularly exchanges in the ongoing banter with Del and the boys.<\/p><div class=\"d7386eeb5bdcd2f43c1295b58ceaf130\" data-index=\"2\" style=\"float: none; margin:5px 0 5px 0; text-align:center;\">\n<script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script>\r\n<!-- ofah2-response -->\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-1609637348681190\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"5593259115\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"auto\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script>\n<\/div>\n\n<p>John Challis (Boycie) a Tweeter himself, often replies to the parody accounts.

Ricky appeared briefly in The Jolly Boy\u2019s Outing in the scene where Albert is playing with the toy boats against a little blonde chap. Albert, of course, is seen crashing his boat!<\/p>\n<h3>More than just Del Boy and Rodders<\/h3>\n<p>Of course, it\u2019s not just about Del Boy and Rodney\u2019s amusing tweets.
