"Only Fools and Horses": "Long Legs of the Law", "The Yellow Peril", "A Losing Streak", "No Greater Love" v.1: "Long Legs of the Law", "The Yellow Peril", ... Greater Love" Vol 1 (BBC Radio Collection)

Much of the first five series is on video, but for those who feel embarrassed travelling with a TV and video recorder on their lap, their scripts now exist in this more portable volume. Without visuals and vocals, they may not make many converts, but highlights abound, such as Rodney's date with a policewoman and a slasher movie send-up, and the book ends with the moving episode where Del Boy turns down a job in Australia.

Mildly let down by a rather meagre two-page Trotter to English dictionary, this is nevertheless a treat. "Pas de calais" as Del would say. --Stephen Portlock

One of the true cornerstones of British comedy - a must own set.

Only Fools And Horses, the enduring comedy classic focused on the inept Del Boy and Rodney Trotter, is brought to book form with this third collection of classic scripts. Remember the moment where Del and friends accidently blow up a coach? Or the wonderful final episode, in which the Trotter brothers dreams came true when they finally became millionaires? Relive these moments and more in the third volume of "The Bible Of Peckham". As well as all of the feature length episodes between 1986 and 1996, there are also scripts for various special episodes, such as 1997's Comic Relief edition. Also included is a brilliant Nags Head quiz. This is a wonderful buy which will take you ages to finish reading. Lovely Jubbly!

Another brilliant book, containing superb scripts (Danger UXD, Little Problems, Stage Fright) the way it is presented is superb. Wonder what will be in volume 3?
