🎙️ The Insanely Dangerous Retropodshow – Season 7, Episode 6
Title: Lovely Jubbly! A Tribute to Only Fools and Horses
This week, it’s time to dust off your sheepskin coat, wheel out the three-wheeled van, and cue the hooky VHS tapes – because we’re heading to Peckham for an in-depth celebration of Only Fools and Horses, one of the greatest British sitcoms of all time.
🕰️ What Happened Way Back When
We rewind to 1981, the year Only Fools first graced our screens. We also dive into the other huge cultural touchpoints of the time:
– Raiders of the Lost Ark blasted into cinemas
– Chariots of Fire ran away with the Oscar
– An American Werewolf in London transformed horror
– Escape to Victory brought football and POWs together
– Chart hits included Tainted Love, Don’t You Want Me, Under Pressure, and Ghost Town
🔥 Dangerous Deep Dive
We go big on Del, Rodders, Uncle Albert and the gang.
– A look at the main cast and characters – from wheeler-dealers to Nag’s Head regulars
– My personal Top Ten Episodes
– The standout episode from every single series, including the specials
This show gave us laughs, tears, and a bar-fall that became TV legend.
🥊 Retro Rumble
Two sitcom titans collide as Only Fools and Horses goes head-to-head with Fawlty Towers in a battle of British comedy royalty. One had the bar, the other had the hotel... but who comes out on top?
📻 One Season Wonders
A cheeky little feature on the cult 80s oddity The Kit Curran Radio Show. Only six episodes, but a loud legacy – synths, pirate radio, and Denis Lawson in peak cocky form.
