That always has me in stitches.

Chandelier is slapstick up there with Keaton, Lloyd and Chapling. Brilliant.
Totally agree. Def my fav moment along with whichever episode Del goes to lean on the bar... which isn't there.

Iatched the one where Damien was born a few days ago and had forgotten how funny the birth scene is (as well as very sad)

Great writing:

What about the sex Del?

Give her time Rodney, give her time!

My favourite bit is "The End".

I really liked the first copuple of series by by 1983/84 it had already run out of steam as far as being genuinely funny.

omg, where do you start? Brilliant, simply brilliant sit com. We own every episode and it is something you can whack on know your still gonna laugh. One of my favs is the Fatal extraction xmas episode.

'What do you want you moron?'

ah, just a couple of fillings...

and the rioting in the ski gear...

Other personal favs for me include Rodney going solo with the lawnmower engines, a losing streak, the butterfly, the blow up dolls and yuppee love.

It also has a way of making you feel for the characters, grandads funeral is an excellent episode and a great send off to a great character but also includes some funny moments (i say, has anyone seen my hat) and after Rodders wedding when Dels in the room on his own...

Yep, well defo gonna have to watch some of these over the next week...

One of my favorite scenes - Delboy arguing with the Drscoll Brothers smile

Danny Driscoll: The bill arrested our old man I mean there wasn't any evidence.
Tony Driscoll: Thats right. Just finger prints.
Danny Driscoll: Just finger prints...
Tony Driscoll: And eye witnesses
Danny Driscoll: Couple of eye witnesses. He died in a police cell. They say it was a suicide attempt that went wrong....or right....well whichever way you look at it. They claimed he tried to hang himself with his braces and smashed himself to death on the ceiling.

Trigger: If it's a girl they're gonna name it Sigourney, after the actress. And if it's a boy they're gonna name him Rodney, after Dave.

Uncle Albert being "shocked" by Rodneys late night antics
That was brilliant; instructed by Del to act shocked, Albert goes completely over the top. Always makes me laugh out loud.

The vicar at Grandad's funeral: 'Has anyone seen my hat?'.

Rodney buying back the lawn-mower engines.

Batman and Robin, chandalier, falling through bar and Trigger's broom.

I watched the Sotheby's auction episode today, it was great, and was a good end to the whole thing. They really should have stopped it there and not done the specials afterwards. Rock and Chips is on again soon, is it any good?

"But...they're not just 'any' lawnmower engines Rodney"

One of my favourites is when Rodney takes some bird out, i can't remember her name, it may be Glenis?

Anyway i think its Mickey Pearce who tells him she prefers the hard man image.....

Big lols all round start the moment she gets in the car, Rodney flicks a fag out of the window except its not open biglaugh

Rodney ends up getting chased by some group of blokes, jumping the reliant iirc and so on.

That one has me literally in tears.

So many to mention, all the obvious ones, but Rodney nonchalantly throwing his fag out the van window while trying to impress the barmaid and forgetting to wind the window down first always makes me laugh.

And Gaary is a funny episode too.

Some of the very early ones were very cleverly written.

The gold chains/heart attack scam, the card game in the flat with Boycie, Arthur's ashes ('he was the black bloke what won Wimbledon, wasn't he?').

Looking after Boycie & Marlene's dog, 'shall I get his balls?'

Running gags like 'all the boys remember Marlene'.

I also like the episode where they sell the watch and finally become millionaries find it quite emotional myself.
