Episode Summary
It's been five years since we last saw the Trotters. When we last saw them, they were millionaires following the sale of a priceless antique watch.
''
''This time, we see Del and Rodney explaining their state of affairs to an unknown man - it turns out that they had invested all their money and had fallen victim to a stock market crash! We later discover that the unknown man is a barrister in a court where they are being declared bankrupt.
''
''Where are they living now? Why Nelson Mandela House of course because their large houses had to be sold to pay debts
''
''We see Del going on a gameshow called 'Goldrush' where he answers a question worth 100,000, with Rodney's help, and gets it wrong! - later the producer telephones to tell Del that the answer he gave was in fact correct and that he can re-appear on the show with 50,000 in his 'bank'. Thinking it was one of Mickey Pearce's pranks though, Del tells them to give it all to charity.
''
''Also in this episode, we learned sadly that Uncle Albert had died and that Mike, landlord of The Nag's Head, is in jail for deforging the brewery!moreless

Trivia
ADD TRIVIA- It was never revealed whether the Trotters ever found out that Mickey Pearce wasn't actually calling when they said that Rodney's answer was correct. Edit
- In the flashback about how the Trotters lost their millions, Rodney is seen flying abroad, yet in "Who Wants To Be A Millionaire", Rodney was not allowed an immigration visa because he smoked some illegal drugs. Edit
- During their vacation, when Rodney is talking to Del about Uncle Albert, he says that Albert could not go on holiday with them because he didn't have a passport. However, in "To Hull And Back", Del asked Albert if he had brought all the passports when he got to Hull, and Albert says they are in his bag. Albert would obviously have had a passport when he went to Amsterdam with his nephews. Edit

Notes
ADD NOTES- Originally, Del was supposed to go on Who Wants to be a Millionaire? but legal issues stopped this from happening. Edit
- The producers had to say Mike was arrested for deforging the brewery because Kenneth McDonald didn't want them to say he had died. Edit
- This episode was dedicated to the memory of Buster Merryfield (1920-1999) and Kenneth McDonald (1950-2001). Edit

Quotes
ADD QUOTES- Del: I suppose this is all my fault. Rodney: Either you or this is the Chinese year of the dodo. Edit
