Splendid Books is to publish The Wit and Wisdom of Only Fools and Horses with a foreword by the classic sitcom’s star Sir David Jason.
The book, compiled by Dan Sullivan, son of Only Fools and Horses creator John Sullivan OBE, is a collection of the best quotes and one-liners from the show, which have been brought together for the first time.
Sir David Jason says: “To pay homage to the wit and wisdom of the brilliant dialogue and comic lines in Only Fools and Horses is really a massive tribute to the writer and my dear friend, John Sullivan.
“With John’s untimely death in 2011, I am more than happy to applaud his comic genius and talents through this very funny and insightful book. As I once acknowledged at a BAFTA evening, John gave me the ammunition and I fired the gun and I know the rest of the cast felt that too.”
“This book contains the very best of John Sullivan’s brilliant lines and we’re absolutely delighted that Sir David Jason has generously written a foreword to the book,” says Splendid Books’ Publishing Director Steve Clark.
The Wit and Wisdom of Only Fools and Horses will be published on October 8th 2012 priced £4.99. Copies can be pre-order at the discounted price of £3.99 (RRP £4.99) here.
