The best thing is that this is both hilarious and heartfelt at the same time. It reaches to both extremes and yet balances it beautifully.

Yes very good, my favourite was the card game, when Del boy said to Boycie, " I knew you was cheating, cos they was not the cards I dealt you"

Slater looked like he had a moment in his trousers when Del said "lets get down to business" 😆

I really love this episode and the way the storyline is contructed around that final line. Jim Broadbent was fantastic as Slater.

[blainoneill]

Beautiful! He really could talk his way out of a room with no doors👏

[caeert]

Did you REALLY have to zoom out during the punchline?

[TheJohnCooper]

Jim broadbent was initially first choice to play delboy. Thank god david Jason got the part.

[DokkaChapman]

One of those episodes that has your heart racing even if you know what's coming.

I always love the way Del Boy outsmarts everyone in the end!

I was born in '92 and grew up with only fools. Had it all on VHS lol lucky to have the original broadcast of the movie without that laughter track.
You'll never see comedy like this again any time soon.

Genius ending😂 this show was pure class comedy is not the same anymore

[MrDeadhead]

It's a good punch line but also shows how smart Del is

[matthewloughran]

I love this punchline mainly because pretty much the whole episode builds up to it

[paulturner]

Can you imagine reporting a stolen microwave now, police would laugh at you 😂

[chrisfricker]

The best TV programme to ever grace our tvs, watching this as a kid has led to me watching repeats on YouTube all the time😂

[kirkparsons]

Slater's face when he says 'I did' 😁😁😁😁

[matthewduncan]

This was a genius ending. So impressed first time I saw this!

[robleary]

This clip and the card game (2 pair of aces) have to rank as two of the best comedy scenes ever!. He might not have any 'sales' nous, but! Like the copper said, he could talk his way out of a room with no doors and did so!. 🤣 Bril, Nuff said.

[deletebilderberg]

Only Fools and Horses was NEVER simply a comedy.

It was so much more than that.

MUCH more.

Wouldn't surprise me if every other copper at the station bought Del a pint after that.
