Review date: 2008-08-05 Rating: 10 out of 10
After having to pan two dismal DVD releases of one of my favourite series, it's nice to be able to say that this is one of the finest in the entire OFAH canon. From the fancy-dress farce to Del and Rodney's attempts at chasing a mugger, this is just non-stop hilarity from beginning to end. Story details involve Cassandra becoming pregnant, Raquel getting a phone-call from her long-forgotten parents and Del being invited to a party. The characters are at their best and there is never a dull moment. A classic.

Arguably, the funniest episodes.

This is the first episode of the 1996 Christmas trilogy, and one of the funniest in the series. The regulars are all on good form. The hilarious Batman and Robin sequence has already been documented in another review. This is followed up soon after by a funny chase sequence between Rodney and one of the muggers, which doesn't quite work out as planned, leaving Del Boy to be the hero of the day. There is also a hilarious dream sequence at the beginning, as Rodney has avision of the future! These Christmas specials were arguably, along with 'The Jolly Boy's Outing,' the funniest of the series, and would have ended the show on a high. I didn't think that the subsequent Christmas trilogy shown from 2001 - 2003 quite achieved the same standard. However, here's a story worth getting. Enjoy it!
Is it a plane? is it a Train No its DEL BOY!!!

This has to be one of the funniest moments in OFAH when Del & rodders decide to go to a fancy dress and the Van decides to break down.
They have to run through a shopping center at night to get to harrys party which has now turned into a wake as harry has passed away and del never got the message.
At the same time the local counciler is being mugged as she is getting into her car.
And as the muggers are trying to steal her purse from out of the mist comes bat man and robin complete with the batman theme music.
The muggers panic and run and the funniest moment in the show has become comedy history.
Its worth buying this DVD just for the Classic moment in this christmas trilogy.
Have to give this one five stars out of five..
Bloody marvelous!!!
FINALLY!!
