In a world of fancy streaming shows and perfect Instagram lives, Only Fools is a breath of chip-fat-scented air. It’s about tripping over a paving stone and still getting up for a cuppa. The episodes that stick with you are the ones where the Trotter family mess up with style.
So next time you’re feeling low, skip the boring new drama. Stick on “The Jolly Boys’ Outing” or “A Touch of Glass.” Let Del Boy’s shameless optimism rub off on you. After all, if he can sell hooky aftershave to a police officer and still smile, you can definitely survive a Monday morning.
Just remember: if life hands you a dodgy batch of VHS tapes, don’t panic. Make a brew, call your mates, and laugh about it. That’s the only fortune you’ll ever need.
