  • Andy Clockwise visits 40 London Filming Locations to celebrate 40 years of "Only Fools and Horses" since it first aired on our screens on the 8th September 1981 visiting such iconic locations as Nelson Mandela House, The pond that Rodney went in to get the Butterfly, The "Top Buys" supermarket where Del, Rodney and Uncle Albert were held captive overnight, The Cafe where Arnie faked his heart attack, Waterloo Train Station where Del meets Raquel for the first time, the Famous auction house where Del and Rodney sell the Harrison Lesser Watch for £6.2 million and many, many more.
    Join Andy on a reflective trip down memory lane reliving classic moments from what is considered by many to be the best TV sitcom of all time.

    Thank you for this video. I have recently finished a 2 year stint working with a company on the Pentonville Rd, and would walk down Chapel Market every lunchtime. Little did I know that was the market from the title sequence. I'm absolutely gobsmacked. I adore OFAH and can barely believe I've been walking up and down a piece of history for the last couple of years!

    Grew up in Southall. Fun fact, my old mans yellow Cortina estate is in the clip you mention around 17.57, when the urn gets sucked up by the dust cart. That was his 'claim to fame' lol. I also run though Ravenscourt Park every morning, surprised you didn't mention the other restaurant where the ambulance waits outside 'tandoori nights' which is just outside of the park. Also I lived a few doors away from 'Arnie' just off Chiswick High Road. I believe he still lives there. Actually called him 'Arnie' once as I walked past him, he smiled :)

    Brings back some memory's, I used to go to primary school 40 years ago next to chapel market, as well as the photo's in the opening credits they used to film some scenes in the market, I'll never forget going into a shop just off the market after school and a pal of mine bought a single cigarette for 10p, David Jason was in full Delboy sheepskin and told my pal off for smoking at such a young age lol

  • @HardeepSF
    @HardeepSF Před rokem +2

    Great video! Here in Bristol there are a few locations where they filmed also, the sport & ski shop in background when the van breaksdown dressed as batman and robin i used to shop in all the time as a kid and sids cafe was a truck stop under a flyover here. Nelson mandela house was also also moved here behind Bristol Citys football stadium, Ashton Gate.
