Only Fools and Horses (1981)
TV Show
First aired
Chain Gang (Series 6, 1989)
The best con in the show, because for once Del is the mark. He and Rodney pool money from a group of friends to buy 250 gold chains from a retired jeweler named Arnie for £12,500, and then Arnie appears to drop dead before the deal is done. The plotting is tight, everyone who chipped in gets something to do, and watching the gang work out what has really happened is pure pleasure. Ideal for viewers who like a twisty caper alongside the laughs.
