Spend the day visiting all the iconic Jolly Boys venues, with quizzes, games, prizes and more!
10.15am - 5pm
Jolly Boys Outings are offering a whistlestop tour of the most famous filming locatons from the 1989 Only Fools and Horses Christmas special.
In this episode from Britain's favourite sitcom, the whole Only Fools and Horses gang journey from their South London home to Margate, with classic moments including Denzil’s ‘disease’, the exploding coach, and Del Boy being reunited with Raquel.
Tours are being led by Adrian Pegg, who was a production manager for the famous episode.
The day begins at Margate Railway Station, where a coach awaits, driven by aptly-named Del! Onboard the decorated coach participants can enjoy quizzes, spot prizes, exclusive video clips, and Adrian’s memories from the 1989 shoot.
Locations include the former Roman Galley site and the former Dumpton Greyhound Track, and the old Broadstairs Police Station (now the Thorley Taverns HQ). A Fish & Chip Lunch is provided at Olby’s Soul Cafe, with an appearance from one of the Only Fools cast, after which the Tour will visit the Main Sands, the Harbour Arm, Palm Bay – the scene where the coach blew up – and then into Dreamland (if open) before heading back to Margate Station.
There will be photo opportunities, gift bags and an inflatable dolphin - although it won’t be the one Trigger lost in the Christmas special!
Gifts will also include an 80-page Souvenir Programme packed with rare photos and a signed, annotated replica of Adrian’s original 1989 Filming Schedule.
Other Tour dates:
27th June; 11th & 25th July
