Not just for one of the greatest scenes ever,A Touch of Glass may be my favorite episode. Dropping Del Boy into old English blue-blood society was a stroke of genius; to be honest it maybe should've happened more often, as it reveals how Del Boy thinks of himself as he desperately tries to climb society:
Rodney: They don't wanna know the likes of us do they?
Grandad: No, they think we're peasants!
Del: Peasants? What do you mean 'peasants'? They may think that you two are peasants! Well come to think that I think you two are peasants! But me, I'm one of them that's accepted anywhere – whether it's drinking lager with the market boys down at Nine Elms, or sipping Pimm's fruit cup at Hendon regatta!
