Ahoy there, Shipmates! Join us for a lockdown live episode special of 'Diamonds Are For Heather' PLEASE NOTE - Due to lockdown, this episode was recorded using Microsoft Teams so the audio quality isn't as high as in previous episodes. "Derek Trotter has the Yuletide Blues, and drinks away his loneliness in Spanish night at The Nag's Head. There he meets Heather, who seems to be one friend short of company. Del Boy, ever the gentleman, entertains her and sees her home safely. At her flat he discovers that she has a young son, to a husband who seems to have joined a very long queue at the Job Centre 18 months ago and not come back. In no time at all their romance blossoms, and all is running so smoothly Del decides to propose. However, when he takes her for a candle-lit curry, she refuses his offer of marriage. Her husband has returned, employed as a department store Santa, and she wants to give it another go... leaving Del Boy without an angel for Christmas."

Ahoy there, Shipmates! Join us for a lockdown live episode special of 'A Touch of Glass'    PLEASE NOTE - Due to lockdown, this episode was recorded using Microsoft Teams so the audio quality isn't as high as in previous episodes. "Returning from an auction, the Trotters stop to help a woman whose car appears to have broken down. It is revealed that she is Lady Ridgemere, wife of Lord Ridgemere who owns the Ridgemere Hall Estate. Having towed the Lady to her stately home, Del overhears that Lord Ridgemere is having trouble with the firm he's hired to clean their chandelier. He wastes no time in offering the Trotters' services as chandelier cleaners for a mere £350. Rodney and Del are up ladders, holding an old sheet to stop a cut-glass chandelier crashing to the floor when Grandad unscrews it. But Grandad actually unscrews the second chandelier, which falls and smashes on the floor. As a horrified butler walks into the hall, the Trotters make a swift exit."

Ahoy there! Join us for a lockdown live episode special of 'It Never Rains' PLEASE NOTE - Due to lockdown, this episode was recorded using Microsoft Teams so the audio quality isn't as high as in previous episodes. "Trotters Independent Trading has been forced off the market, with the continuing downpour keeping most of Peckham indoors. While the Trotters are drowning their sorrows in The Nag's Head, Alex the travel agent mentions that business is slow and he cannot give holidays away at the moment. As a promotional gimmick, Del suggests offering an 80% discount on a holiday to the next customer in the shop – and who happens to walk by, but Derek Trotter. Having sold sunhats in the rain, Rodney has managed to earn some travel cash. During the whole holiday, Del and Rodney attempt to pursue women, with Del at one point pretending to be French, Grandad, however, cramps their style, especially when they bring two girls back to their apartment, only for the old man to scare them off with his dentures. Things get a bit more serious when Grandad is arrested. He is worried that the arrest is for an old incident during the Spanish Civil War 50 years earlier, but it turns out that he was arrested for jaywalking and is released without charge."

As part of the 30 year anniversary celebrations of The Jolly Boys' Outing, the Jolly Boys Podcast invited back a couple of friends of the show in Anthony Costa and Jamie Borthwick.  Both tested with the same set of questions. This is not a a game, Rodney...this is a duel! Who wins?

The Jolly Boys' Podcast were fortunate enough to have yet another Only Fools cast member on to the show - it's only 'Gary'!  He may have had mostly one word in dialogue to deliver, but Nabil was on one the highlights of Strangers on the Shore. Enjoy listening to this absolute gentleman!  "Garrrrrrry!"

Well, we just had to, didn't we? 30 years since the golden age of comedy had quite possibly peaked in giving us The Jolly Boys' Outing.  1989 was the year. Margate was thriving. Del had reveled in the 80's yuppy image. A mobile phone in one hand, a pot noodle in the other. The beanos were in full swing and the pina coladas were flowing. This episode, the Jolly Boys' Podcasters simply had to cover the greatest Only Fools episode, which includes a special guest who can boast of a very rare experience behind the scenes with the cast and crew. Bonjour for now! JBP
