Only Fools and Horses (1981–2003)
10/10
One of the very best.

If ever a show was an advert for a second chance, this is it, by modern standards this would have had the chop after series one, which to be fair is decent, but not a patch on what it would become. I feel very grateful that I grew up with Only Fools and Horses, that as a youngster I was lucky enough to see all of the Christmas specials. It's an iconic mix of brilliant writing, superb acting, laughs and tears. They knew they'd nailed it. Del Boy and Rodney are iconic characters, and for good reason.

The highlight for me is Danger UXD, with Series six my favourite run, although that's me knit picking as there are some seriously funny episodes. At its peak, 24 million tuned in, remarkable. A shame that The Green Green Grass didn't quite work so well, but it was a decent spinoff.

Blu rays would be a nice addition, I hope one day we get them.

It's a British Institution. 10/10
