Sullivan wasn't present at the recording as he was working on some other show.

The vid below shows what he cut, reducing it from 80 to 60 mins. I've never seen the whole version.
My recollection is that Del didn't even give a toss about Rodney's potential heartbreak. He manipulated the Duke to pay Rodney to stop seeing his daughter. Rodney turned the Duke's offer down, much to Del's annoyance.

Yep, he does.
There’s a plethora of confectionery waste all over the floor.
He’s also a helmet to Juney as well.

Surely there's not much that a director or actor can do to take the edge off stuff like that. The writer is responsible surely. Don't know why he wrote it in the first place.

Re: Only Fools and Horses Thread
I think this was David Jason’s least favourite episode, as he believed it showed a darker side to Del Boy. Whilst Del Boy being pissed at the dinner table is hilarious, he is fucking cruel when he mentions Rodneys drugs bust.sennafan24 wrote: ↑Tue Nov 09, 2021 3:10 pmCheers, makes sense.Rogg wrote: ↑Tue Nov 09, 2021 3:06 pm As Jimmi says, it was about Del's character.

Just rewatching a few episodes and as I’ve gotten older over the years, I’ve come to realise that Del and Rodney’s relationship is written and acted so perfectly.

Yeah, all three of them are gold together.
It’s just an excellent show and will always stand the rest of time.

Ohhh, okay, interesting.
