Beg, borrow or steal - just as our hero Del Boy would - if you want to see Only Fools and Horses The Musical when it comes to Mayflower Theatre in March with every show on the week long run close to a sell out. 

Comedy giant Paul Whitehouse reprises his West End starring role as Grandad in the debut tour of the smash hit show, which he wrote alongside Jim Sullivan, son of the original writer.

The pair took John Sullivan's 64 unforgettable television adventures featuring the Trotter brothers Del and Rodney and blended them into one perfect night out.

Direct from a record-breaking sold-out four-year run in London, the show takes us on a trip back in time, where it's all kicking off in Peckham. 

While the yuppie invasion of London is in full swing, love is in the air as Del Boy sets out on the rocky road to find his soul mate, Rodney and Cassandra prepare to say ‘I do’, and even Trigger is gearing up for a date (with a person!). Meanwhile, Boycie and Marlene give parenthood one final shot and Grandad takes stock of his life and decides the time has finally arrived to get his piles sorted.

With musical contributions from Chas & Dave, the beloved theme tune as you’ve never heard it before, and an array of brand-new songs full of character and cockney charm, you’re guaranteed to have a right ol’ knees-up! 

Jim said: "The story of the Trotters of Peckham spanned over two decades and included births, deaths and marriages. Our job was to boil that down into a single two hour story with songs! Ultimately, we are not trying to reinvent the series but rather to pay homage to it. What we’ve ended up with is (hopefully) something that captures and celebrates the heart and spirit of what the series was all about."

So don’t delay, only a 42 carat plonker would miss it!
