An Evening With Sir David Jason

Had the pleasure of seeing David in the Waterfront Hall in Belfast last night. Absolutely wonderful storytelling full of little quips and interactions he had over the years with people like Ronnie Barker, and tidbits about things like Granville and the Jolly Boys Outing.

Did you know the scene of the lads running into the water was actually a rehearsal? David says that in the moment, he decided Del Boy wouldn't want to wade in (a mixture of dirtying his clothes and fear of being swept out), so he turned and ran back to the camera instead :)

I think he has a few more shows on before the end of the year and I would 100% recommend going if you have the chance to.

Three men, a woman and a baby

How this episode isn't widely considered at least top 5 is beyond me. It's always been my favourite and I rewatched it today on a reaction channel, and it is just pitch perfect. So many great scenes-

Rodney and Cassandra finally make up

"They're naming him Rodney, after Dave"

"I ain't had a bit for months"

The scene with the 'rat'

"Friend or enema?"

"Oh give her time Rodney"

The episode is perfectly paced and doesn't waste a single second, and to top it off you get dels monologue at the end which always makes me teary. The genius of John sullivan to make you laugh one minute and cry the next shines here.

10/10 episode, the best on the show in my opinion :)

Remember how good The Bill was in its heyday?

In its earlier days I thought The Bill was very good. This is the cast from the early to mid 1990s.

Ok…

So if he was just a tad early he could have blown out the candles and foiled the whole thing?

And why risk it? Why have the little kid take him down there?
