According to Del, why is Trigger called "Trigger"?

From Quiz "For "Only Fools and Horses" Addicts Only"





Only Fools And Horses Trivia Questions

1. According to the first series of 'Only Fools and Horses', what was the age difference between Del and Rodney?

From Quiz
Only Fools and Horses

Answer: 12-13 years

In the first episode of 'Only Fools and Horses', Rodney's age was 23. In the second episode of 'Only Fools and Horses', Del's age was revealed as 35. In the first episode, Del said there was 13 years between them. Interestingly, Although the age difference between Del & Rodney was 12-13 years, There was 21 years difference between the two actors who played Del & Rodney.

2. What does Trigger call Rodney?

From Quiz Trigger - The Daft Dustman

Answer: "Dave"

The two men meet in the pilot episode and at the time Rodney can't be bothered correcting Trigger calling him "Dave". Three seasons later, at a tenants' meeting Rodney finally sighs and says "Trig, my name's not 'Dave' my name's 'Rodney'." Trigger frowns "You sure?" Good grief! Rodney assures Trigger that he has checked his birth certificate and passport; his name is definitely "Rodney"! This episode is unusual for another reason: when the chairman announces he needs a new vice-chairman, Trigger calls out "I nominate Rodney." he's finally got Rodney's name right. But Rodney is annoyed about being nominated and doesn't notice!

3. Which member of the Trotter clan has Mickey for a best mate?

From Quiz Mickey Pearce - The Fishy Friend

Answer: Rodney Trotter

One must wonder why Rodney does not look for a new best pal. Mickey embarrasses him around girls, never pays him money back and makes fun of Rodney and Del when business is bad. Still, Rodney is a forgiving soul (probably due to all the years of having Del as a brother).

4. What well-known movie actor played Roy Slater (before he was a well-known movie actor)?

From Quiz Roy Slater - The Corrupt Cop

Answer: Jim Broadbent

Jim Broadbent has done very well for himself since "Only Fools and Horses". He's played Bridget Jones' father, Professor Kirke in the "Narnia" series, a Hogwarts professor, and Queen Victoria's uncle the king in "Young Victoria". I doubt anyone could have guessed his career would turn so successfully from TV to film. He is a very good actor and made Roy Slater very hate-able.

5. Who did David Jason play?

From Quiz Who played Who in "Only Fools and Horses"

Answer: Del Boy (Derek) Trotter

David Jason starred as Del Boy Trotter. Always 'wheeling and dealing' he did eventually make his million but lost it all in a stock market crash. David Jason also starred in "A Touch of Frost" and "Open All Hours".

6. In which episode do we first meet Del and Rodney's Trotter's father?

From Quiz Only Fools and Horses

Answer: 4 meters

Damien was (in the words of Del) "doing a Johnny Cash" in the swimming pool from the 4 meter diving board.

11. How did Trigger get his nickname?

From Quiz Trigger - The Daft Dustman

Answer: He resembles a horse

When Rodney (aka "Dave") and Trigger meet in the pilot episode, Rodney assumes it's because Trigger carries a gun. Trigger's real name is Colin but no one calls him that. Rodney is Del's new financial adviser, and during that meetings he points out Del owes Trigger more money than Trigger thought. (Needless to say, Delboy is less pleased about that than Trigger.) "With financial advisers like that," Del grumbles "Who needs a bleeding recession?!"

12. What is Rodney's response when Grandad claims about Mickey: "He'd rob his own grandmother!"?

From Quiz Mickey Pearce - The Fishy Friend

Answer: "Oh don't be stupid Grandad! That was never proved."

Rodney is thinking of breaking up his partnership with Del and starting a new one with Mickey. Grandad shakes his head sadly "You wanna watch that young Pearce, he's a bit too fly for my liking." Grandad turns out to be quite right. Mickey flies overseas with Rodney's money for a holiday. His mother gets a postcard from Spain saying Mickey has met a Swedish chick called "Helga". When Del and Grandad tell Rodney all this he says "Er...yeah, she's a business contact of ours."

From Quiz Only Fools and Horses

From Quiz Mickey Pearce - The Fishy Friend

Answer: His hat

Mickey's actor, Patrick Murray, first appeared in TV commercials. One was as a failing salesman wearing a hat similar to Mickey's. The image must have stuck because shortly afterwards he was cast in "Only Fools and Horses".

19. How does Delboy escape prosecution when Slater catches him in possession of a stolen microwave?

From Quiz Roy Slater - The Corrupt Cop

Answer: He cons Slater into arranging immunity from prosecution

Slater returns to Peckham after being posted away for several years. But not as a patrolman, he is now a newly-promoted Detective Inspector. He is looking for a stolen microwave, and meets Rodney who (not knowing Slater's profession) invites his brother's old classmate back to the flat. Slater spots the stolen microwave and "invites" all three Trotters down to the station to explain. He can only charge Del with receiving stolen goods, but he threatens to plant drugs on Rodney unless Del volunteers the actual thief's name. Del turns pale knowing he and Rodney will spend at least a year in prison and poor Granddad will be left alone in their dangerous neighbourhood. He has no choice. But he will only co-operate if Slater grants him an Immunity from Prosecution. "I'll get it arranged right away Derek!" Slater cackles. He knows once Del signs that bit of paper he can use him in the future for whatever he likes, or he'd let it be known on the streets Del is an informer. He laughs "Oh we're going to have a good future together you and I, Del, I can feel it!" Once Delboy has signed the Immunity, and Roy Slater has finished gloating, he asks "Who nicked the microwave off the back of the lorry?" Del smiles and said "_I_ did." motioning the signed agreement. Slater is almost in tears.

20. Who did Buster Merryfield play?

From Quiz Who played Who in "Only Fools and Horses"

Answer: Uncle Albert

23. What is Boycie's first name?

From Quiz Only Fools and Horses

Answer: Aubrey

In the episode "In Sickness and Wealth" Boycie tries to say that Aubrey is his middle name but in the end he actually admits in when Trigger says "You never said your name was Aubrey" he replies "Nor would you if your name was Aubrey". The official OFAH website on bbc.co.uk has character profiles and Boycie is listed as Aubrey Boyce. Boycie is played by John Challis. He's my least favourite character, but Marlene and Duke make up for him. Marlene and Boycie's son is called Tyler. The family are now featured in a spin off comedy called "The Green, Green Grass".

24. Grandad's replacement, Uncle Albert, was played by whom?

From Quiz For "Only Fools and Horses" Addicts Only

26. When Rodney and Mickey form a partnership and bid against Del at an auction, what do they buy?

From Quiz Mickey Pearce - The Fishy Friend

Answer: Broken lawnmower engines

After some harsh words between the two brothers, Rodney leaves Del and join forces with Mickey. Next morning at the auction, Del sneaks up behind the two entrepreneurs and whispers "Listen, the one you wanna watch out for is Lot 37. It's just a load of old scrap iron. So be careful!" and leaves. Mickey and Rodney were planning on bidding for some glass goblets but Rodney changes his mind. They should bid for lot number 37 instead! Del's obviously trying to put them off because it's something valuable that he's after. But what does Lot 37 turn out to be? A load of old scrap iron! Del laughs "Well don't say I didn't warn you!" It turns out the elder Trotter was selling this rubbish in the first place. "What are these things?" demands Mickey. Del admits "Those are lawnmower engines. But, listen," he leans closer and whispers "They're not ordinary lawnmower engines." Hearing that, Mickey perks up. "They're BROKEN lawnmower engines!" Del chuckles.

27. What crime is Slater charged with by his fellow police officers?

From Quiz Roy Slater - The Corrupt Cop

Answer: Diamond smuggling

Against Rodney's protestations, Del agrees to smuggle some diamonds from Amsterdam for Boycie. Slater has already caught all the previous couriers in the act and Boycie thought of using Del instead. At first everything seemed to be going well, except for Uncle Albert navigating the hired boat a tad, er...questionably. They eventually make it to Holland, pay for the diamonds and Albert eventually finds the right way back to England across the North Sea. But as soon as the three Trotters get back to London, Slater captures them and Boycie. But then, to everyone's astonishment, he lets them go and keeps the diamonds. Then Del realises the Dutch diamond seller is Slater's business partner - Slater has been running the smuggling racket all along! He lets someone else take the risk, arrests them back in England, and then sells the diamonds for himself. "You found me out, you rascal!" Slater cackles at Del. Slater is about to retire from the police and now he can retire in style. He laughs as he walks away from the stunned Trotters. He is still laughing, until he is arrested. It seems the police had figured out before Del what he was up to...

28. Who did Lennard Pearce play?

From Quiz Who played Who in "Only Fools and Horses"

Answer: Grandad

Lennard Pearce starred as Grandad. Sadly Lennard died during filming of the fourth series, and the BBC made an episode to include a reconstruction of his funeral so that they could continue with the series.
