SIR David Jason has taken a trip down memory lane after rubbing shoulders with the cast of Only Fools and Horses: The Musical. The legendary actor, 84, was snapped on the red carpet alongside Vinne Jones and Paul Whitehouse, who both star in the show. Dressed in similar clothing to that of Del Boy - the iconic character David played in the comedy series - David was all smiles at the opening night.

Wearing Del Boy's signature flat cap, David chuckled away as Vinne, who takes on the role of notorious gangster Danny Driscoll in the musical, larked around on the red carpet. The hard man actor and former footballer put his hand on David's shoulder before making a fist with the other and pulling a face.

David was also photographed alongside Paul, who was sporting white hair, bushy eyebrows and a white moustache. The comedian, who co-wrote Only Fools and Horses: The Musical with Jim Sullivan, plays Grandad in the West End stage show. Grandad, whose name was Edward Kitchener 'Ted' Trotter, was portrayed by the loveable late Lennard Pearce in the 1980s TV series.

David also made sure to grab a photograph with Sam Lupton. Sam takes on the role of David's character Del Boy and the pair turned towards each other for a fun face-off snap. Only Fools and Horses: The Musical was originally devised in 2019 and is currently on tour across the UK.
