Only Fools and Horses
A spin-off of "Only Fools and Horses" entitled" The Green Green Grass", also written by John Sullivan and directed by Tony Dow, was first aired in the UK in September 2005. Sullivan had considered writing a sitcom around the popular characters of Boycie and Marlene (John Challis and Sue Holderness) since the mid-1980s, but it was not until the series finally ended that the idea came to fruition. "The Green Green Grass" sees Boycie and Marlene forced to leave Peckham by one-time "Only Fools and Horses" villains, the Driscoll Brothers, and has included guest appearances by Denzil (Paul Barber) and Sid (Roy Heather). A second series of "The Green Green Grass" was broadcast in the UK in October 2006, a third in November 2007 and a fourth in January 2009.
