Read More Sir David Jason, 84, meets with the cast of Only Fools and Horses The Musical as he makes a rare public appearance for the gala performance In January 2022, Only Fools and Horses topped a BBC poll of the best 20 TV programmes the corporation has ever made. Sir David reportedly almost quit Only Fools And Horses during its prime back in 1986 and almost an entirely different ending for Del Boy character was written. According to The Sun , as the actor contemplated leaving, head writer John Sullivan wrote a potential final episode called Who Wants To Be A Millionaire. The episode did air that year but it almost had a very different ending. It saw a character named Jumbo Mills arrive in Peckham after supposedly making a fortune while living in Australia. The initial idea was that Jumbo would cross paths with Del and tempt him to return to Australia with him to make his fortune there. This would have given David the opportunity to make a clean break from the show while setting up for the series to carry on without him. Producers were reportedly contemplating making Nicholas Lyndhurst the star of a new version of the show called Hot Rod, centred around his character Rodney. While the fate of Only Fools And Horses hung in the balance, David ultimately changed his mind and decided to stay with the series. The episode aired with Del rejecting Jumbo Mils' offer to go to Australia.

Roma supremo Dan Friedkin is close to being granted Premier League approval to buy Farhad Moshiri's 94.1 per cent stake in the Toffees. Moshiri agreed the sale in September and is set to walk away with virtually nothing from the deal, agreed in September, as Friedkin is clearing Everton's debts of around £600m. The British-Iranian businessman first acquired a 49.9 per cent stake in Everton in 2016 before increasing his share of the ownership in the years since. Meanwhile, Friedkin purchased Roma in 2020 and is currently the Serie A side's president. Under his ownership, the Giallorossi have not finished lower than seventh and won their first European trophy for 61 years (the Conference League) in 2022. It has been a turbulent spell for the Toffees after they breached the Premier League's Profit and Sustainability rules in recent seasons. Sean Dyche's side had a ten-point deduction reduced to six points on appeal last term before later being hit with another two-point penalty. Despite the punishments, Everton finished 15th in the table, 14 points clear of the relegation zone. So far this season, the Toffees have won three of their 14 league matches and are five points above the drop zone. It is also their final campaign at Goodison Park before moving to a new stadium. After 132 years at the venue, Everton will move across Liverpool to Bramley-Moore Dock ahead of the 2025/26 season. However, shocking footage emerged last week of flooding at the uncompleted new ground . Videos of water cascading down the stairs of a stand circulated on social media after Storm Darragh brought severe weather conditions to Merseyside. The adverse weather also prompted Saturday's Merseyside Derby to be postponed. A new date for the fixture has yet to be confirmed by the Premier League. Everton return to action after their extended break this weekend ahead of a busy festive schedule for Dyche and his players. The Toffees travel to the Emirates Stadium to face Arsenal on Saturday afternoon.
