Rock and Chips

We watched Rock and Chips the one-off 'prequel' to Only Fools and Horses last night. Rather disappointing, I thought.

But one interesting thing was Del Boy's Dad was, I'm sure, also Rose Tyler's Dad in Dr. Who. After all, it's only a slight change of name, Trotter to Tyler, isn't it? But how did he do it? Rose lived in the noughties and Del Boy was in the 1960's. Wait a minute, I wonder if he also found that time portal that Rodney used in Goodnight Sweetheart?

But back to Rock and Chips. Presumably, the point of the drama was to explain why, in Only Fools and Horses, the two brothers Del Boy and Rodney look so different. Mind you, Rodders really DID look like his Dad. Uncanny that ...
