John Challis who played Boycie in Only Fools and Horses has died aged 79.

Really gutted to hear this news, absolutely loved OFAH and he was an integral part of it.

R.I.P.

Sad news, more than played his part in making the show such a success.

"Can I smell onions?"

Just passed the 40th anniversary of the first episode being screened.

He was a fantastic character in F&H. Always remember him saying “Marlene”

R.I.P to a great actor in the best sitcom of it's time.

Had to google his top line's to remind myself, my fave was "they're calling the baby Rodney after Dave".

That was Trigger. :greengrin

Another legend in Roger Lloyd Pack who sadly passed a few years ago.

I was dating a vegetarian when we watched OFAH and Boycie uttered the line "Cor, where you been Del, you smell like a vegetarian's fart". The relationship never survived that. R.I.P.
