To ask if there is a single person who heard the story today of the watch sale that made £15m and didn't think of Only Fools and Horses

As soon as I heard about the Supercomplication watch that sold for £15m it made me think of that Only Fools and Horses episode and a few other people mentioned it today today.

It just shows what a comedy genius the writer was that it sticks in your mind for so long.

Did anyone hear about it and not think of that?

Nope, didn't cross my mind at all until I saw your post. Even now it doesn't really remind me of it except in that a watch was being auctioned.

Sorry

Eh?

No, because I don't know that show!

YANBU
Didn't hear about the watch sale but John Sullivan was a genius.

Of course! It was the last episode when they found an old watch amongst their rubbish goods, sold it at auction and danced off into the sunset as very rich men.

Me - never watched Only Fools and Horses after the first couple of episodes - didn't find it funny.

There were subsequent episodes - it wasn't quite the last.
