COMPLETE with contributions from David Jason, this must rank as the bible for fans of the series.

As well as a catalogue of every episode ever filmed and some brand new scripts never before published, there's exclusive inside information from people involved in the making of the programme and little known facts about everyone from the Trotters and Trigger to Boycie and a host of other superb characters.

The show was voted the most popular TV comedy series of all time in a 2002 poll and contains two of Britain's favourite funniest TV moments.
