@RichardElden But if it went on for as long as it did? It would get noticed - and that was how it was. The general audience failure for 1981, it was built up and up and - quite simply from a lowest peak that series to a huge one (24+ million for an episode in 1996)
lol we've all had moments like these: several in my case. I was on a school trip once and there was this holiday rep guy who just would not smile: one evening me and my friends were trying to make him smirk or laugh or something! I happened to walk into a lampost: he couldn't help but crack :D
@RichardElden And that's your opinion mate, one that you are entitled to have, I'm sure.
But that wasn't really relevant to my comment, because I was talking about how much of an empty life you must lead to devote so much time to spreading your shit everywhere.
@RichardElden You have an incredibly sad life mate. I do not understand what someone can gain by wasting their time like this. Whether you're doing this just to get a reaction out of people or not, it doesn't matter. You're a joke.
"Rodney and Del won't do, although it might take your mind off the aches and the pains, laugh when he falls through the bar but you're feeling the same"
Even the canned laughter was embarrassed to find this drivel amusing....yawn. Totally lame and weak. Did you need the prompt to know when to start chortling? No wonder Americans believe their comedy to be superior. Del Boy must be turning in his grave (assuming of course he actually made it there and that the coffin didn't fall off the hearse)
@ThePurist007 You are a complete idiot because only a complete idiot would not find this funny and only a complete idiot could even begin to compare US crud to English humour
@falangatang Really, is that the best you can do? With such talent, perhaps you should consider writing the next series. Absolutely priceless. What muppet planet are you from, btw?
@ThePurist007 You need to watch the full clip; ie; when Del Boy is talking about picking up women, and the type of men women go for. And David Jason (Del Boy) is still alive.
@ThePurist007 David Jason is still alive you moron. What sort of shows do you find funny then? I love only fools and horses, it is one of my all time favourite shows.
@MrLFC1989 you are not wrong there about American comedies......two and a half men and Frazier are the biggest load of shit to come from America just not funny at all
@trueblue374 I am a huge fan of British comedies as well, although I think ever since OFAH, we haven't really been able to reach that sort of level anymore. Furthermore, there is one American comedy I quite like because it actually strays away from some of the more mainstream American comedies: The Big Bang Theory. It's alright, to be honest, because even if they have some implausible situations in TBBT, they use interesting concepts to explain these situations.
@sharonloveish American's don't know how to be funny. All your comedies are about sex and all your sitcoms are just stupidly far fetched. British know how to be funny without swearing, without making sex references, and without using slapstick.
@bfcricky here we are anoder english witecunt your cuntree is crap and yo brits cant act will smith and ed murphy is de funeest why dont yo wach dem insted of dis fukin shit
@bfcricky yo is a dumb witehonk me and my brudaz haz our own langage its so witecunts dont get it we is goin out tonite to mug sum witeshites if dey dont giv us der monee we beet dem bad id luv ta punch de queen in de face for bein wite
dis is pure shit it just about sums up de british mentalitee the fresh prince of bellair is wat is funny a proper comedy .. dis fools and horses crap is racist i find it offencive it shood be banned from de telly
@sharonloveish are you taking the fucking piss no yankee bullshit comes close to the british comedys, they are about as funny as a fucking a heart attack....american comedys = pure not funny garbage and british comedys = LMAF0....fresh prince of bel air is better than only fools lol lol lol lol lol lol lol, btw how is this racist?
@MrLFC1989 yo is a racist witescum dem only fools is dumb crap yo brits dont know wat a good comedy is fresh prince was voted best dis shit here cums nower near it
@sharonloveish lol will smith couldn't act his is way out of paper bag he is a awful actor and i'm not saying that because he is black he just is crap and as far that rap crap he does which i might add is not proper music, rap crap is for morons lmao
@sharonloveish Calm down, im just kidding im black too. I have had a hard life like you as well. i feel u, ma man. I heard you were the out come after you're mumma got raped by a white guy, while ure mums boyfriend sat in the corner and wanked over her, screaming helplessly.Are you angry at the fact you're father fucked you, or the fact you enjoyed it?
@RichardElden i still watch these? i have the box set,i have a 800£ computer a xbox sky with all the channels,i have almost all films at my fingertips on the internet.So why do i still watch these? You must honestly have no friends.Anybody who lives in london,or even has a brain would find this funny.Your simply a retard and everybody will agree with me.
God !!!... Is THAT IT THEN ??????? The so-called "6th Best Moment Of British TV" or something in one of those nationwide polls you've had around the Millenium ????... Really, be it British or French or American, the "General Public" as we call it will always have me baffled...
Who needs a "sophisticated" comedy???? The series were simple and funny all round. Thats why people like it. Thats why its a classic in every sense of the word.
@neaiancu If that is the case as you claim, why exactly are you here watching it an posting negative comments about a whole range of people you do not know & have never met?!. Clearly it is you who is short minded in your Self-absorbed manner......!!!
@neaiancu either you're a troll or you're just plain simple. This isn't slapstick for the "short-minded" (odd phrase), Only Fools and Horses is a classic situation comedy joined by such masterpieces as Fawlty Towers, The Rise and Fall of Reginald Perrin, I'm Alan Partridge, Phoenix Nights and Spaced.
This type of comedy is only simple to those who are such, if you don't see why this is funny then there is no hope for you.
@badbatch78 i saw a list titled "100 greatest tv moments" and this was 7th. came to see it, didn't see anything special, i said this is only that funny to british people and was called retarded. please TRY to read the original post
and you're calling me simple, but yet you're suspicious about a phrase you haven't heard before instead of recognising it as a great analogy, depth of mind for distance ... it's a translation from an old romanian saying, "long hair and short mind", targeted at women.
I grew up watching this and it is still as funny now as it was then. English humor can't be beat. If you dont like this then I think you seriously need to learn how to enjoy your self.
@RichardElden I do not see any similarity between this and Steptoe & Son apart from them both being comedies, I would gladly watch it again, which I frequently do as I have it on box set so again you are wrong with your opinion. I guess it may have to do with your age but I still find it funny to watch
@RichardElden the last series finished in 1991 but the last episode was broadcast in 2003 and also you are wrong with suggesting that this is unfunny,
he fell through the bar, stew! he was standing vertical, and then he fell through the bar, and it's THE funniest thing thats ever been on television!!!!!
love the negative comments from people who probably think the likes of little britain, alan carr, that berk with the long hair, brand? the eternally unfunny lenny henry and norton are hilarious. plonkers. this is solid gold real estate comedy, along with porridge, rising damp, the office and friends. based on reality and appealing to a mass, cross section of the great british public. looooove it!!
@RichardElden get a new line you boring idiot. Only fools and horses is in British heratige with only vauge similarites to Steptoe and Son. If you dont like it... piss off and watch your Steptoe and Son.
john sullivan what a mind you had .. and you have the irish bloodline from cork like me .. R.I.P John Sullivan a true writer for the bbc and the rest of the world
51 seconds long and it's one of the greatest moments in comedy history. R.I.P John, thank you for the laughs! The family always watch a bit of Only Fools at Christmas, it's like a tradition in our house.
If you'd like to meet ''Boycie'' John Challis he's meeting fans and signing autographs at ''Stars of Time'' on Sunday 31st July 2011 at Weston-super-Mare. See the website at: starsoftime.co.uk
Folks who don't have anything nice to say about this video get lost and don't watch it!! Best comedy show that has ever been produced and will ever be produced! It's won awards for a reason!
Too predictable. All it needed was the bartender waving a sign as he was walking through the opened bar, "GUESS WHAT HAPPENS NEXT!"
And the laugh track, which has ruined countless TV comedies - if its really funny, we need to be prompoted?! - strikes again. Its amazing that they haven't been hammered into the film soundtracks.
@7855waldo It's predictable because it's classic and probably a bit over played (if thats possible), and this was filmed in front of a live audience, those were real laughs in real time, so bite your tongue you needless idiot.
@7855waldo I don't think this gag is all about the element of surprise - you could quite often see the gags coming but it was the acting and the delivery that made Fools and Horses a classic - and the way in which he falls through that bar, almost like a grandfather clock being pushed over, is comedy gold!
@RichardElden I wouldnt say it ripped off step toe and son really, very different imo. Both are about working class Londoners but very different indeed. I think the constant playing of it on GOLD or how dels fall always comes high up on the 100 greatest comedy moments programs has led people to say they dislike it. Plus any one that likes to consider themselves an intellectual always shuns this show, when if they actually took the time to watch it they would see it isnt all cheap laughs.
RIP John Sullivan, I am genuinely gutted you are gone and we wont get any more of your awesome heart and humour. We will always have your genius legacy though and thank you for it.
And im sure we will see Rodney and Del in a new only fools sometime in the future. Thanks to John and everyone involved for bringing so many hours of laughter and captivating intrigue to the homes of Britian and even the world for years to come. The same goes for all those involved in all the great British sit coms, no other nation comes close to the treasure trove of comedy and drama we have. Lets not forget that.
Im really looking forward to rock and chips on Thursday, such a shame that Sullivan is dead, I hope the legacy will continue. I always thought Rock and Chips would develop into something more than Christmas and Easter specials. I hope it does, the foundation for many years of great comedy drama are there, someone with the right qualities just needs to take the reigns.
I never found this to be the best moment. I always found the more philosophical bits better, like when rodneys baby is stillborn, grandads "heroes fit for homes", or when everyone claps in the pub when del and rodney are millionaires. The way those moments of tragedy and shear joy can make you laugh and cry at the same time far outweigh the quick laugh of the bar fall or the batman and robin sketch.
@parrotcar I agree mate though this is still a fantastic slapstick gag. My fave ever OFAH scene is when Uncle Albert goes missing and Del and Rodders find him at the docks and he has a fantastic monologue that never fails to bring a tear to my eye.
@RichardElden Everyone has different tastes, and that's alright, isn't it? Personally, I thought Steptoe and Son was crap but I loved Only Fools and Horses.

51 seconds long and it's one of the greatest moments in comedy history. R.I.P John, thank you for the laughs! The family always watch a bit of Only Fools at Christmas, it's like a tradition in our house.

Too predictable. All it needed was the bartender waving a sign as he was walking through the opened bar, "GUESS WHAT HAPPENS NEXT!"
And the laugh track, which has ruined countless TV comedies - if its really funny, we need to be prompoted?! - strikes again. Its amazing that they haven't been hammered into the film soundtracks.

@7855waldo British comedies have never used laugh tracks. All the laughs are from a live audience in the studio, and some of them are extremly loud.

@7855waldo It's predictable because it's classic and probably a bit over played (if thats possible), and this was filmed in front of a live audience, those were real laughs in real time, so bite your tongue you needless idiot.

@7855waldo I don't think this gag is all about the element of surprise - you could quite often see the gags coming but it was the acting and the delivery that made Fools and Horses a classic - and the way in which he falls through that bar, almost like a grandfather clock being pushed over, is comedy gold!

@RichardElden I wouldnt say it ripped off step toe and son really, very different imo. Both are about working class Londoners but very different indeed. I think the constant playing of it on GOLD or how dels fall always comes high up on the 100 greatest comedy moments programs has led people to say they dislike it. Plus any one that likes to consider themselves an intellectual always shuns this show, when if they actually took the time to watch it they would see it isnt all cheap laughs.

And im sure we will see Rodney and Del in a new only fools sometime in the future. Thanks to John and everyone involved for bringing so many hours of laughter and captivating intrigue to the homes of Britian and even the world for years to come. The same goes for all those involved in all the great British sit coms, no other nation comes close to the treasure trove of comedy and drama we have. Lets not forget that.

Im really looking forward to rock and chips on Thursday, such a shame that Sullivan is dead, I hope the legacy will continue. I always thought Rock and Chips would develop into something more than Christmas and Easter specials. I hope it does, the foundation for many years of great comedy drama are there, someone with the right qualities just needs to take the reigns.

I never found this to be the best moment. I always found the more philosophical bits better, like when rodneys baby is stillborn, grandads "heroes fit for homes", or when everyone claps in the pub when del and rodney are millionaires. The way those moments of tragedy and shear joy can make you laugh and cry at the same time far outweigh the quick laugh of the bar fall or the batman and robin sketch.

@parrotcar I agree mate though this is still a fantastic slapstick gag. My fave ever OFAH scene is when Uncle Albert goes missing and Del and Rodders find him at the docks and he has a fantastic monologue that never fails to bring a tear to my eye.

@DirkD13 Yeah I also really like that bit. "They was rough people, but they was good people". Im sure its on youtube somewhere. :)
