I used to live in Acton in the early 80's and often saw them filming on the South Acton Estate cycling home from school.

@damonmavis4113 Год назад

i love how the imperfections are still present on the brick work in many of the shots.

@Gray-zi5bp Год назад

As far as I'm concerned it's the greatest comedy ever. 💯🇯🇲🇬🇧👍

@tropicalpalmtree Год назад

4:36 i absolutely love how the 'Furrier' sign is still there and even the shutters look like the ones from OFAH.

@ritch8088 Год назад

Grew up in Southall. Fun fact, my old mans yellow Cortina estate is in the clip you mention around 17.57, when the urn gets sucked up by the dust cart. That was his 'claim to fame' lol. I also run though Ravenscourt Park every morning, surprised you didn't mention the other restaurant where the ambulance waits outside 'tandoori nights' which is just outside of the park. Also I lived a few doors away from 'Arnie' just off Chiswick High Road. I believe he still lives there. Actually called him 'Arnie' once as I walked past him, he smiled :)

Great video. I was born and bred and still living in. Wood Green (North London) spent my uni in Angel so I know chapel market well. The scene where Rodney pretends to Cass he lives in a big house was filmed in Winchmore Hill

@stuartross8284 Год назад

what a great video. Grew up in England but now live in LA. Im very used to people showing locations from movies made out here, but to see this video on my beloved OFAH and the effort you put in is superb. Top effort mate and much appreciated. earned you a sub!

@sunnybeachwalks4k2022 Год назад

I grew up in Ealing minutes from those locations in W13 and W3 but now live in Marbella Spain, Great to see all the locations ! Thanks

@badshotuk72 Год назад

Brings back some memory's, I used to go to primary school 40 years ago next to chapel market, as well as the photo's in the opening credits they used to film some scenes in the market, I'll never forget going into a shop just off the market after school and a pal of mine bought a single cigarette for 10p, David Jason was in full Delboy sheepskin and told my pal off for smoking at such a young age lol

HA great. I know Philip McGough AKA "ARNIE" in Chain Gang,he lives in W4 like me. Some people may later know him as the doctor in doctors. Still,he did not have far to go given location was down the road in W5

i live round the corner of the Peckham Spring! its in Brighton but i'm sure you know that, i had an allotment there for a bit and thought it was just urban legend you whould hear at any city allotment, but found the exact one, they ended up putting a sign up for it

@MrJonpac 4 месяца назад

This is 1st class my friend .. Im obsessed with the show so this has made my day. The attention to detail is superb and it must of took you along time to put together . Your enthusiasm and passion for it all is a joy to watch . The happiness on your face when your in the ball room is a picture... Lovely Jubbly

@philburtonfrench Год назад

Thank you for this video. I have recently finished a 2 year stint working with a company on the Pentonville Rd, and would walk down Chapel Market every lunchtime. Little did I know that was the market from the title sequence. I'm absolutely gobsmacked. I adore OFAH and can barely believe I've been walking up and down a piece of history for the last couple of years!

@MrJonpac 4 месяца назад

I went to the farm shop from Mother Nature's son episode . Myles shop . Its just outside of Brighton . Some of the staff still work there and rememberd the filming day well. I also stopped off at the allotments which is in the same area. We stayed in Brighton at the Grand hotel and then went down the road to Hove and see the Blue plaque where John Sullivan lived. . A great day and a proper jolly boys outing .. Shame i was only with the Misses..😁

@dan_1150 Месяц назад

Great video, thank you for this! Me and my partner followed in your footsteps this Sunday just gone. We had lots of fun! We have good and bad news, the good news is the little shop from “Big Brother” in White Conduit Street where Del tried to sell the briefcases was actually open! We met the owners, absolutely genuinely lovely people, they’re aware of its History and have some real classic gems for sale inside! A must visit! The bad news is unfortunately 14-16 Somerset Road, otherwise known as “Vimmal Malik’s Hotel” from Cash & Curry has actually been demolished. It’s currently in the process of being rebuilt. Huge shame but still overall was lots of fun and the area was still recognisable! Highly recommended day trip for any Fools & Horses Fan!

@chrisblackler4202 Год назад

I love Only Fools And Horses very much! Still watch it often never gets old with me seen every episode.🥰😍❣️

Great video! Here in Bristol there are a few locations where they filmed also, the sport & ski shop in background when the van breaksdown dressed as batman and robin i used to shop in all the time as a kid and sids cafe was a truck stop under a flyover here. Nelson mandela house was also also moved here behind Bristol Citys football stadium, Ashton Gate.

I actually work security in the film industry and worked on a tv production called life after life and it was all more or less filmed at the house where del lived after he got the money from the watch sale at sothebys !! Cranleigh just off the A23 road to Brighton think it’s actually comes under Haywards Heath postcode great upload you should do more 👍

Another great location video. When I went to Hollywood and LA in 2000/2001 I wanted to visit film locations and was hard to get info back then. But managed a few incl Pretty Woman and Bev Hills Cop.

The sheer amount of research and effort into all these locations is superb. Fantastic work. Thank you for this, loved it!

@brucedanton3669 Год назад

Thank you for this of course too! I know some of the series was filmed in London as you show; but I am sure other parts were filmed in Bristol, Suffolk or Wiltshire at other times. I think the one with the chandelier was filmed in Somerset, but am not too sure though. Well done!

@TheAndyClockwise Год назад

that is correct, OFAH was filmed in many locations with the later series' being filmed in Bristol. This video is just London ones, not all of them, just 40, to celebrate 40 years in 40 minutes. Glad you enjoyed it though and if you're going to the OFAH convention in March, have a fantastic time. Bonjour! :)

@ernest3074 10 месяцев назад

I can see the cop, played by Derek Newark in "The Russians are Coming!" pulling up the notorious 3 in the s****y 3 wheeler van, saying, "Hello Del, are you trying to beat the 4 minute warning or something?....Wayne here is looking for his first nick!" To which Delboy replies something like, "....You on bonus?" To which the cop replies, with no shame, "No, me and the wife are off to Corfu next month!" I suppose Beaumaris Tower would be dismantled by now. Best thing for the monstrosity I guess, nevetherless a nostaligic treat. Bringing the scenes to life with this 'Cook's tour' of OFAH London was a treat to say the least. Thankyou so much for putting in the time and effort Andy.

@markpitts8936 2 года назад

The Ealing Christian centre in Northfields which you said was used as the club in Margate used to be called the Tophat nightclub.

absolutely amazing video, 40 minutes exactly, interesting numerology @17:27 the Merc is an northern Irish reg, and I means Ireland in LUI 626 just as you 'craic' that very funny joke about the nationality of the tumble drier or what we call mixers, lol. Its a 1982 MERCEDES 280 E from the same year as Ashes to Ashes was broadcast.

@vivianhughes9347 Год назад

What an absolutely brilliant presentation. I was actually weeping with laughter remembering the scenes from your excellent commentary. Thanks so much for giving us the tour.

Episode sleeping dogs lie when they take Dukey for a run is filmed in the car park/ woods of Horsenden Hill, Perivale. I took some pictures recently but massively overgrown now compared to the eighties. Great job!

@Lightduties 2 года назад

14.29 Andy just let you know it was a school that was there. It was Walpole Grammar and when Grammar schools were abolished in Ealing in 1973 joined with Bordeston secondary modern in Hanwell and became Elthorne High School. The Walpole site was used up until I think 1980\81 and was demolished and that housing estate built.
