And so ends the 01-03 'Only Fools' trilogy, and the series as a whole, due in part to the sad death of the writer, John Sullivan.
This is a hit and miss episode. I didn't like the 'Del and Rodney play at being film producers' storyline, because it wasn't that funny, and also Del has done this before, both in another 'Only Fools' episode and in 'Rock and Chips'. The Marlene and Denzil affair plot wasn't much better.
John Sullivan cleverly rounds up the show in terms of Del and Rodney's financial situation and also groundwork for what would become his 'Only Fool's prequel 'Rock and Chips' but apart from that I wasn't a huge fan of this episode upon broadcast or now.
The 01-03 trilogy will always divide 'Only Fools' fans. For me while there were some nice moments, it should have been left alone after the 1996 ending.
