Yeah they got 3 million each.  Even in 1996 Del's gaff defo cost 2 or 3 million.

Shoddy shoddy shoddy script writing!!

At least 3.

One in one of the very early series, one in To Hull and Back and another in Heroes and Villans. Those 3 are spaced out though so plausible enough

Was The Royal Flush one Sid's though. 

Just saw an episode of Minder.  Only Fools definitely ripped off the idea.  Terry knows this Irish fella running an Irish pub in Kilburn. He hires a band called The Shamrocks.  The band are playing and an enormous fight breaks out and the whole bar is fighting and throwing glasses etc. Full scale riot basically. Episode first airs 21 March 1984.

Compare that with the OFAH episode where Del becomes a bands manager and gets them a gig in an Irish Pub called The Shamrock Bar.  An enormous bar brawl ensues just like the Minder episode. Episode first airs 14 March 1985.

Sullivan you nicked the idea you plonker!
