Del's swooping in on a deal of a lifetime - it could keep them in Pilau rice forever. All he has to do is get hold of a statue that no one will let go of unless he pays big money for it so quick thinking Del Boy sells all his things and Rodneys and hes a winner only problem is he been ganged up on and scammed.

"Terrible"

By cooler31n, Jul 27, 2005

Out Of All the episodes of only fools and horses this happens to be the most uninteresting and boring episode of the lot Dull scenes and not that many laughs plus it also felt like it lasted longer then 30 mins, it felt never ending.
Grandad didnt appear in this episode so i suppose this is one of the reasons why i did not find it funny.
However, whenever i watch series 1 i dont just jump this episode so i have to watch it there is 1 or 2 jokes, but really that is all the 1st is the "quick rodney you and vimal in the car quick" scene,and the second is the final scene.
I gave this episode a genarous 2.1 for being a complete bormoreless

- This was the only episode where we see the Vauxhall Velox. The Capri Ghia later replaced this as Del Boy's personal car.
  EDIT SHARE
- This was the first of only two episodes of Only Fools and Horses in which the interior the Trotters' flat is not seen. The other is "The Longest Night" from Series 5.
