David Jason famously decided to leave Only Fools and Horses after Season 5, making Who Wants to Be A Millionaire the final ever episode. Creator/writer John Sullivan was crushed at the thought of ending the show but respected Jason’s decision to move on. THANKFULLY, Jason changed his mind, opening the door to 2 more seasons and 14 more Christmas specials. Incredibly, here are some of the the super-classic episodes that wouldn’t have happened if he hadn’t changed his mind:
Dates (Del Boy never would’ve never tried a dating agency and met Raquel!!)
Yuppy Love (Rodney never would’ve met Cassandra, and we would’ve been denied the most famous scene in sitcom history.)
Danger UXD
Chain Gang
Little Problems (no wedding for Rodders!)
The Jolly Boy’s Outing
Heroes and Villains (no classic Batman & Robin scene!)
Modern Men (would’ve missed the greatest instant switch from poignancy to comedy in the series)
Time on Our Hands (Trotters never woulda become millionaires!)
If They Could See Us Now (Trotters never would’ve instantly lost their millions!)
Sleepless in Peckham (mystery re: Rodney’s father would’ve never been solved!)
AND we'd never have gotten to see this gem with David Beckham!
