Del has just seen the film Wall Street and decided the upwardly-mobile lifestyle is for him. The camel-hair coat is out, and in comes a smart new image. Green mackintosh, mobile phone, aluminium briefcase, but the yellow van remains. Del even wants to buy the flat off the council and sell it for a fast buck. Rodney, meanwhile, has decided to complete a computing diploma course at the Adult Education Centre. It's there that he meets a beautiful posh sort called Cassandra, who learns his name from the tag Del stitched into his raincoat (for a giggle). Del and Trig ditch The Nags Head in favour of propping up a wine bar. The rest is comedy gold. Rodney and the boys head to a club, where Rodders amazes the others by dancing with Cassandra.

One of the most popular OFAH scenes and arguably one of the best gags in British comedy history! |
|  | | Three Degrees-Of-Separation: Michael Douglas played corrupt stock-trader Gordon Gecko who said the line 'Greed is good' in the film Wall Street, the film worshipped by Del in this episode. David Jason then co-starred with Catherine Zeta Jones in The Darling Buds of May, the actress who then went on to marry Michael Douglas and promptly filed for damages over unauthorised wedding pictures. |
