Only Fools and Horses the Musical has announced it will be returning to the West End from October, having been forced to pause performances due to COVID-19.

Based on the popular BBC comedy, the musical was written by Paul Whitehouse and Jim Sullivan and reacquaints audiences with the Trotter family. It is directed by Caroline Jay Ranger with set and costume design by Liz Ascroft, musical supervision and arrangement by Stuart Morley, lighting by Richard G Jones, sound by Rory Madden and casting by David Grindrod.

Mais ouis, mais ouis, the world may have changed a lot since we first bid a jovial ‘au revoir’ to the Trotters of Peckham, but good ‘ol Del Boy, Rodney and the rest of the gang haven’t changed a bit… well, apart from the odd spontaneous bursting into song here, and the occasional dancing across the market, there.

The cast for when the production returns is set to include: Paul Whitehouse as Grandad, Tom Bennett as Del Boy, Ryan Hutton as Rodney, Ashleigh Gray as Raquel, Pippa Duffy as Cassandra, Jeff Nicholson as Boycie, Samantha Seager as Marlene, Chris Bennett as Sid, Peter Baker as Trigger and Oscar Conlon-Morrey as Dating Agent/Danny Driscoll/Featured Ensemble. The company will be completed by Adrian Irvine as Denzil, Chris Kiely as Mickey Pearce, Andy Mace as Mike the Barman, Andrew Bryant as Tony / Cripps, Melanie Marshall as Mrs Obooko/Wedding Fitter and Lisa Bridge, Philip Childs and Lee van Geleen as Ensemble, with Chris Arkeston, Bradley John, Samantha Lane Arnold and Rhys Owen as swings.
