Hole in One

"Hole in One" is an episode of the BBC sitcom, Only Fools and Horses. It was the third episode of series 4 and was first broadcast on 7 March 1985. In the episode, Del decides to sue the brewery after Uncle Albert falls down the Nag's Head cellar. Synopsis Albert has been living with Del Boy and Rodney for four weeks, and their finances are low. It is the "worst winter in over two million years", and Rodney has impulsively made an investment in £500 worth of suntan lotion. To make matters worse, that £500 was the last of the Trotters' money. At The Nag's Head, as the Trotters pass by the open door into its cellar, it is revealed that Mike wants to speak to Del due to a malfunctioning deep-fat fryer he sold him. Inside, Del and Rodney once again start to argue about their situation, prompting Albert to leave. Suddenly, a loud crash is heard, and the barmaid tells the Trotter brothers that Albert has fallen into the cellar, injuring Mike in the process. Del hatches a plan when Albert says, "I've got a right mind to sue the brewery!" He also tells Rodney to phone Solly Attwell, the Trotter family's solicitor.
