Who is jumbo in rock and chips

Top review. Not Only Fools and Horses. I can take or leave 'Only Fools', bit too slapstick for me - the canned laughter, the crammed-in gags - but I like it enough to check this out. What I saw was a pleasant surprise.

If you want 'Only Fools', approach carefully. Yes, this is comedy, but much more a 'family drama' than 'Only Fools' ever was. It is, dare I say it, more intelligent fare than 'Only Fools' and benefits from it. Moreover, 'Only Fools' fans tuning in to this as a prequel may find themselves disappointed while others, perhaps not great fans of 'Only Fools', may miss out on a treat for the association.

Albert, now in his sixties, says he does not want to start afresh yet again at his time of life so Del says he will send him money.

A week or so later Rodney is refused a visa due to a minor drugs conviction 5 years earlier. He does not want Del to join Jumbo. Rodney says the real opportunity lies here, as traders like them are approached when the country is in a depression and people want bargains. Rodney then storms off when Del says this is his big chance. That night, Del rings Jumbo at his Sydney apartment and says Rodney wont be coming over due to some snags and that he himself wont be coming over either.

Del says he has family ties and loyalty here in the UK, and the deal is off. He then thanks Jumbo for the offer and says goodbye to Jumbo and tells Rodney the real opportunity lies here, the country is on the eve of a golden age of the black market, so people come to market traders like him and Rodney for bargains.

After Del refused the deal, Jumbo never returned to England again. Del mentioned him in The Jolly Boys' Outing. Del also mentioned how he ran a jellied eel stall in Three Men, a Woman, and a Baby but did not mention Jumbo.

Jumbo would also say that Del and his family were always welcome to come and visit him at the Mills Mansion. Only Fools and Horses Wiki Explore. Wiki Content.
