    Hi Felipe, I just thought I let you know that only fools and horses, truthfully cannot be watched in short clips because it was made to be a very long story form ,from season 1 all the way up to the last season. So If u do watch short clips as your doing now, u will be completely left in the dark about the story involved in the clip. So u really have to watch at least a 30 minute episode to get to know the ongoing story, now it's much different with Harry Enfield as its not a story involved, they are just clips. So if u like funny clips there is also jasper carrott tv show, called canned carroty. Funny comedy from the 80s. Tell me if u want the jasper carrott clips. Thanks

      Yes, it's not possible to appreciate & understand a long-running sitcom from clips alone.

    'Only fools and horses work' is a proverb (I think not common nowadays, if it ever was all that common).
    It's a philosophy, holding that people who do not look for an easy way of earning a living are foolish.
    So it pretty well encapsulates Del Boy!

    The sitcom's name is from the expression 'only fools and horses work'. Del is self-employed, hence he's not an employee. However, he does work, though often dishonestly.

    The one-off character Pauline is twice widowed. She's possessive, controlling & manipulative of Del. She escalates their relationship very quickly, insisting that she & Del buy a house & that he take out life insurance.

    Re OJ. In America jurors are allowed to do something that, certainly in England and Wales, isn't allowed. Jurors in the US can talk about the case after is conclusion. I always remember one of the jurors saying one of the reasons they decided to find him not guilty was because they feared an out break of violence if they found him guilty making specific reference to the Rodney King case....where the police officers were found not guilty.

    It comes from the vaudeville expression 'only fools and horses work' as they (the showplayers) saw what they did for a living as not work. John Sullivan stated that in the Only Fools and Horses Magazine that came with the 2004 DVD partwork. JS stated there was a built-in irony that Del works harder than the average man.

    I do love your OFAH reactions. And I take it you have the boxset. Personally, I think Season 1 wasn't great but it definitely gets much better in season 2, season 3 was fantastic but all the best episodes definitely came between Seasons 4 and 7 plus the Christmas Trilogy of 1996. The show does starts off slow but it starts to gain momentum in middle of Season 2 before it really takes off big time

      No, the expression is much older than OFAH. Also, horses have hooves, not trotters. The name trotter would have almost certainly been chosen to emphasize that they're underclass.

But like you said about an hosest living, and del yes and to him regular work is for fools or horses ( comes from the expression works like a horse ) or a similar expression , slaving away in the mines.
