Hugely successful British comedy about of two streetwise London brothers: Del (Derek) and Rodney Trotter. In early years they shared their council flat with #39;Grandad#39; (until the death of actor #39;Lennard Pierce#39; ) later to be replaced by #39;Uncle Albert#39;, a WWII Navy veteran with an anecdote for any occasion. Del and Rodney are best described as lovable and harmless black market traders; they buy and (try to) sell almost anything and many an episode is based around some faulty/stolen stock bought by Del. As with other comedies from writer John Sullivan, the humor is devilishly engineered so as not to telegraph the jokes before the punchlines and there#39;s always a strong cast of support characters. The series has won countless awards and ratings battles.
