The Only Fools And Horses Thread

In the 2003 episode with Gary it turns out Gary is really French and well to do coming from a rich muslim family.

Yet he is dressed dishevelled in tatty clothes and doesn't even recognise the French football jersey that Damien is wearing in the flat.  You would think being French he would kind of point at it or summink.

As if he would mistake the Trotters for holding him prisoner

For what gain?

What is Reg Trotters motivation for coming between Del and Rodney when he tampers with the blood groups?

If he needed accommodation and money why piss off the flat owner and alienate the only breadwinner in the flat ie Del?   Rodney and Grandad dont earn any money so siding with them is of no use to him

He wanders over to the wine bar and tries one of Del’s “spritzers” but is a bit glum over the Cassandra thing and the computer course. Del asks him if he is hanging around, he says no, Del asks if he is going back to the flat and Rodders says “no, I don’t want another night of the battle of the Baltic”. All of this scene, Rodders is wearing a dark suit, white shirt and black tie. He heads off.

Next scene, he’s down the nightclub with Mickey and Jevon. The scene where they all ask Cassandra to dance. He clearly didn’t head home to change as he was avoiding the flat, so why then is he dressed in an entirely different suit? A grey suit. 

 

In Long Legs of the Law Rodney gives the policewoman Sandra a nicked watch which she wears on her wrist during the date.

Yet later in the episode she claims she knew it was stolen from police photos.

Yet her accepting it as a gift and wearing it is a crime itself in handling stolen goods.  So she reports the family yet the Trotters could have got her sacked.

As one door closes - del takes money from denzil to buy some doors, denzil was crying according to rodney and was still so upset later that his big brothers came to nelson mandela house to find del. Literally an hour later, denzil is skating through the park happy as larry and even gives del a high 5!

The episode where uncle albert is 'mugged', cassandra comes round to see him and has a chat with rodney in the kitchen. She takes the mick out of rodney for dressing and talking like del (rodney says no way pedro). This makes no sense because rodney was raised by del and worked with him since he was a kid. If he was going to talk/dress like del he would have done it in all the previous episodes, not suddenly for 1 episode when hes a fully grown man!
