| Lloyd Pack Believes OFAH Should Have Ended in 1996 - 04/05/06 Roger Lloyd Pack admits that Only Fools and Horses should have ended in 1996, when the Trotter family finally became millionaires. Speaking to The Mirror, the 62 year old actor who played Trigger confessed: "I'm very glad we did the last ones but it probably should have ended when they became millionaires and walked into the sunset. That was perfect, a brilliant ending and that's when it should have ended. Yet the pressure was immense to bring it back. It was irresistible. Then of course everyone says, 'Ah well, not as good as the last one.'" Lloyd Pack added that he doubted the sitcom would return, as he couldn't "see David Jason doing it anymore." |
