Best OFAH eposiode? 17:54 - Mar 4 with 15333 viewsJoey_Joe_Joe_Junior

Had a good friend over for dinner and wine last night and dusted off the UK compatible DVD player (Can't remember the last time I watched a DVD).

For some good nostalgia put on Only Fools, haven't seen it in years, she's English otherwise it would have been a waste of time explaining the jokes. Anyway watched the first series, the old ones are the best in my opinion. "Big Brother" is fantastic. One of my favorite scenes of all items when they try and chat up those two girls in the west end proclaiming Rodney is a international professional tennis player. The Russians are coming is also marvelous. Just looking at the backdrop of 1970s London, it does seem a much simpler time back then! Never gets old, brilliant stuff.

What's everyone's favorite?

Early OFAH is filmed in the 80s and mainly in Bristol.

You're right it's 81, had it my head 79. Bristol?

Interesting, didn't realize there were that many were blocks and council estates in Bristol

Not an episode as such but the bit where uncle Albert proclaims to speak German and instead says ‘vot is your name’ had me laughing for a good five minutes.

To Hull & back, May the force be with you, Slater was a brilliant character. Nigh on 15 years ago since the last episode aired. That makes me feel particularly old.

I was watching big brother where they are selling a second hand card to an Aussie and it looks like late 70s early 80s London to me. Huge council estate tower blocks, Lewisham or somewhere but might be Bristol I guess.

i think series wise, the 6th is when it is at its pinnacle - the first series they extended the duration to 50 minutes. Chain Gang, Danger UXD being the two highlights for me but all of that series is absolutely superb!

The first half of Miami Twice is decent, the second is cringe worthy crap IMO.

Jolly Boys outing. Really like to Hull and Back too but it doesn’t seem as funny without the audience laughing like others.

Camera angles also throw you off a bit.

They're all pretty near faultless. Personal favourites include the one where Rodney has won the holiday after being entered in the kids' painting competition by Del, The Jolly Boys, the one with the butterfly.

Favourite moment? 'Brace yourself, Rodney', and Trigger and the name of Del & Cassandra's baby: 'if it's a girl, they're going to call it Sigourney - after an actress. If it's a boy they're going to call it Rodney - after Dave'.

Ha - the competition win episode in Spain is a great episode.

I liked the one where they paint Denzils living room and the budgie dies. Uncle Albert is great in that one.

I think the writing is of it is brilliant just the one liners.

Del "The French of got a word for people like me"

Rodney " Yeah thr English have got a couple of good'uns in all"
