Good idea, never thought about torrents.

You don’t happen to know if there are any uncut OFAHs episodes that have been uploaded via torrent do you?. To be honest I couldn’t imagine many would. As I said previously, a good way of sourcing them (though probably pot luck) would be via ebay and the like from pre-used tapes that have TV recordings of them. But what are the chances that someone would have an uncut recording of one of the early episodes (complete)?. Maybe an ep from the later series say from the late 80s/early 90s onwards. There is supposed to be an Only Fools and Horses uncut facebook group, but it appears to be a closed group. It claims they have lots of uncut, unaltered recordings of the episodes; whether that’s true I don’t know.

There’s 39GB worth of episodes on MySpleen but even that is incomplete.

Keeping in adherence with the rules here, I suggest that if you search Google using the term “only fools and horses uncut torrent”, you’ll find leads to what you’re looking for. 😉

Thanks, but I very doubtful I’ll find any uncut episodes that way. They’ll just be ones from a VHS or DVD release which will be butchered. Never heard of Myspleen before, but will check that out.

I noticed that in Yuppie Love part of the nightclub scene with Rodney, Mickey and Jevon was cut (the original music was replaced) during the part where Mickey says he’s had lots of women, to which Rodney replies “just wondering if it was sponsored Bulls**t”. I’m familiar with most of the alterations of these episodes, but as far I’m aware I don’t know why they cut that part out. Can’t imagine it being for PC reasons. There is more stuff on TV nowadays with these annoying and unfunny standups that is considered far more offensive than there is in some eps of OFAH. At least Delboy never had to come out with the F word, unlike the majority of these police dramas you see on TV.
