The 90 minute production was conceived in 1997 and commissioned in 2003 , with the premise established in the final episode of Only Fools and Horses in 2003 . It was shelved and Only Fools and Horses spin - off The Green Green Grass was developed ; its success led to the prequel being recommissioned in July 2009 .

Joan Trotter ( Kellie Bright ) is in an unhappy marriage with the work - shy Reg ( Shaun Dingwall ) , whose father Ted ( Phil Daniels ) has just moved in . Her 15 - year - old son Derek , often shortened to Del Boy , ( James Buckley ) and his friends Boycie , Trigger , Jumbo Mills and new - in - town Denzil ( Stephen Lloyd , Lewis Osborne , Lee Long and Ashley Gerlach ) are still in school , following an increase in the school leaving age . Joan works at the local cinema with Trigger 's aunt Reenie Turpin ( Emma Cooke ) and Raymond ( Billy Seymour ) for cinema manager Ernie Rayner ( Robert Daws ) , and at the Town Hall as `` a part - time filing clerk who sometimes makes the tea '' . Convicted thief Freddie Robdal ( Nicholas Lyndhurst ) has just been released from Dartmoor Prison and returned to Peckham with explosives expert Gerald `` Jelly '' Kelly ( Paul Putner ) . At the Town Hall , Joan asks Mr Johnson ( Colin Prockter ) about applying for a flat in the new high - rise estate ; she is told she is unlikely to get a tenancy , as preference will be given to those with young children . At the Nag 's Head , Freddie and Reg meet , and Reg invites him to his house to continue drinking . After meeting Joan and buying her a drink , Freddie realises that she is a Trotter , a family he has a dislike for . After they return to the Trotters ' house , Freddie shows his affection for Joan . At the cinema , Joan is promoted to part - time assistant manager and Rayner tells her that the safe sometimes contains over £ 2,000 at weekends . She later tells Freddie , after he goes round to her house to offer Reg some work ( Reg was not at home as Freddie told him to meet him at the pub ) . They talk about art , and he invites her ( and Reg ) to his house - warming party . In March , Joan has a Marilyn Monroe hairstyle and the safe at the cinema is broken into . Ahead of the party , Freddie gives Reg the use of his car , to return unused decorating materials to Guildford and he takes his father , Reenie and her boyfriend Clayton Cooper ( Roger Griffiths ) with him . They run out of petrol on the way , leaving Freddie and Joan the only ones at the party . They dance , and Freddie admits that he wanted to be alone with Joan so they could talk about art . They end the night by sleeping together . In June , Reenie accompanies Joan to a pregnancy testing clinic , while the boys are on the Jolly Boys Outing to Margate ( providing Freddie and Jelly the opportunity to burgle a jewellers ) . On their journey home , Reenie tells Joan about Freddie 's time in prison and she realises he burgled the cinema . After Freddie tells Kelly he thinks he 's in love with Joan , Reg announces her pregnancy in the pub . While Joan is completing a housing request form , Freddie goes to see her and she fails to acknowledge the baby is his . The Trotters ' housing application is successful in August , and September sees them view a flat in the new Sir Walter Raleigh House , which they have moved into in October . In November , Joan has her baby , which she calls Rodney ( after the `` handsome actor '' Rod Taylor , and to the surprise of everyone else ) . The closing scene sees Joan enter the balcony of her flat with Rodney in her arms . After telling him that Del will be very rich one day , Joan sees Freddie on a balcony in a tower opposite ; she shows him Rodney and nods her head , to his delight . Throughout , the story tells of Del 's strained relationship with his father and his affection for his mother ; Reg 's affair with the barmaid at the Nag 's Head ; Del and Jumbo selling goods from the docks out of the back of a van ; Del and Boycie 's attempt at dating Pam and Glenda ( Jodie Mooney and Katie Griffiths ) ; Joan fending off advances from her perverted boss and provides an introduction to Roy Slater ( Calum MacNab ) and Albie Littlewood ( Jonathan Readwin ) .

His uncanny resemblance to Rodney confirmed that he , and not Reg , was Rodney 's biological father . A lot of the groundwork for this had been both laid and explored in the Episode `` The Frog 's Legacy '' the 1987 Christmas Day hour - long special . In the episode Rodney goes to ask about his father to which Albert diplomatically replies ' They 're rumours Rodney . That 's all . Rumours . ' The proposed prequel , was to be titled Once Upon a Time in Peckham , it would see young versions of Del , Boycie , Denzil and Trigger , and Sullivan said `` Joanie will be a key character , and during the film will give birth to Rodney . '' However , the prequel was shelved , and spin - off The Green Green Grass was developed to follow secondary characters , Boycie , Marlene and their son Tyler , as they escape the London Mafia and attempt to live in the Shropshire countryside . It was reported in January 2009 that the prequel was being considered again , following the success of The Green Green Grass . In April 2009 , Sullivan told The Mail on Sunday that he had started writing the prequel , and that Lyndhurst was `` keen '' to play Robdal , a local criminal and Rodney 's biological father , although the production had yet to be commissioned . On 3 July 2009 , the BBC announced that the prequel had been commissioned as a 90 - minute comedy drama , titled Sex , Drugs & Rock ' n ' Chips , to be co-produced by the BBC and Sullivan 's production company , Shazam Productions . Originally scheduled for August , filming began in October 2009 in London , lasting 19 days . Nicholas Lyndhurst , who played Rodney in Only Fools and Horses , would play villain and art connoisseur Freddie Robdal in a reprise of his role in the `` Sleepless in Peckham '' photograph , Kellie Bright ( Bad Girls , The Archers ) would play the `` glamorous '' Joan Trotter , her husband Reg would be portrayed by Shaun Dingwall ( Soldier Soldier , Doctor Who ) , and his father by Phil Daniels ( Quadrophenia , EastEnders ) . James Buckley ( The Inbetweeners ) , would play the teenage Derek , Joan and Reg 's son , portrayed by David Jason in Only Fools and Horses . Dewi Humphreys ( The Green Green Grass ) would direct . It was announced in January 2010 that the production would be shown on 24 January on BBC One with the title Rock & Chips . The drama was produced by Gareth Gwenlan , who worked on Only Fools and Horses between 1988 and 2003 . Speaking to the Western Mail , he described it as `` essentially a love story '' between Joan and Freddie , and he said that Lyndhurst `` told me he thinks it 's the best thing he 's ever done '' . Speaking about the casting of Lyndhurst , he said he `` would make a marvellous villain , which is something people will never have seen him do on TV before '' . Speaking about continuing the story , Gwenlan said that the production was `` run on the idea it 'll be turned into a series . This one lays the groundwork and John ( Sullivan ) has enough for about two more series . '' On 13 September 2010 , while promoting the third series of The Inbetweeners on BBC Radio 5 Live , James Buckley confirmed that Rock & Chips would return for two more specials , one for Christmas 2010 , and the other for Easter 2011 . John Sullivan died on 23 April 2011 , five days before the final episode was broadcast . Locations ( edit ) The ' Nags Head ' pub used in the pilot episode is a de-furbished version of the existing ' Pelton Arms ' pub in Greenwich , which maintains the ' Only Fools And Horses ' look , style and ' feel ' . The prefabricated Excalibur Estate in Catford was used as a location in the opening episode . John Sullivan 's comments ( edit ) Sullivan said when the production was announced that it would `` give us a bit of an insight into why Del and Rodney turned out they ( sic ) way they did '' in a period `` before The Beatles and Mary Quant made London the coolest place on the planet '' when `` the staple diet was rock salmon and chips and the flicks offer the only hint of glamour '' . Expanding further on the basis for the prequel , he said : ... the most important person in the flat ( in Only Fools and Horses ) was never , ever seen ; it was the spirit of Del 's ( and Rodney 's ) beloved mother Joan who had passed away 17 years before , and throughout the run of the series Del constantly referred to her and past events within the Trotter Family ... But much of his historical information was at best contradictory , and at worse ( sic ) outright lies . We were left with a situation where the only person who really knew what had happened was an unreliable witness , so I decided to return to those misty days of 1960 to meet all those characters we 'd only ever heard about ... Nicholas Lyndhurst 's comments ( edit ) In an interview in the press pack for the production , Lyndhurst described Freddie Robdal as `` a villain -- charming , but nasty '' , and comparing him to Rodney , said that : `` They 're from two entirely different suitcases as far as I 'm concerned . I did n't want to bring into it anything that I 'd already done with Rodney and fortunately there was n't any opportunity to do so . They 're like chalk and cheese . '' Speaking about the 19 - day filming schedule and the `` not great '' budget , he also told Michael Deacon of The Daily Telegraph that : I was very pleased it was made at all ... There were people who said , ' I do n't think we 're going to do this ' , and we had to wait months to get the green light . We thought , ' Well , we have n't got the budget we want , we have n't got the schedule we want , so we 're going to have to make it as brilliant as we can . ' It was a costume drama and it needed a costume drama budget , and it did n't get that . Episodes ( edit ) # Title Directed by Written by Original airdate Duration UK viewers ( million ) `` Rock and Chips '' Dewi Humphreys John Sullivan 24 January 2010 ( 2010 - 01 - 24 ) 90 minutes 8.42 <Td_colspan="7"> Set in 1960 , Joan Trotter is in an unhappy marriage with the work - shy Reg , with whom she has a teenage son , Derek ( `` Del Boy '' ) . However , the reappearance in Peckham of bank robber , `` art connoisseur '' and womaniser Freddie Robdal , recently released after a ten - year prison sentence , will bring about changes in Joan 's life . Rock & Chips centres on the relationships between the glamorous Joan Trotter , Del 's useless father Reg , the safe - cracker Freddie Robdal and the young Del Boy . It also features teenage incarnations of some of the original show 's regular characters , including Boycie , Trigger , Denzil , and Jumbo Mills . The Trotter family have n't yet moved into their flat in Walter Raleigh House ( later Nelson Mandela House ) , but there are some recognisable settings such as the mean streets of Peckham and the Nag 's Head circa 1960 . `` Five Gold Rings '' Dewi Humphreys John Sullivan 29 December 2010 ( 2010 - 12 - 29 ) 60 minutes 5.83 <Td_colspan="7"> It 's Christmas 1960 , and the Trotters are settling into their new flat in Sir Walter Raleigh House , Peckham . Ted and Reg are still drawing the dole , and hard - working Joan is struggling to keep the family afloat by returning to her old job at the cinema , while asking her mother - in - law Violet to look after baby Rodney . A 16 - year - old Del has left school and is exploring employment opportunities around the docks -- including a nice line in selling 45s straight off the back of a boat from America -- and Freddie Robdal has been temporarily detained in Wormwood Scrubs at Her Majesty 's pleasure . `` The Frog and the Pussycat '' Dewi Humphreys John Sullivan 28 April 2011 ( 2011 - 04 - 28 ) 60 minutes 3.77 <Td_colspan="7"> Joan longs for a new life . Del also has new aspirations -- to become a movie producer . If only he could find the finance . Maybe his latest squeeze might persuade her father to invest ... that would provide the answer to both of their problems ! Reception ( edit ) Overnight figures estimated Rock & Chips was seen by 7.4 million viewers with a 28 % audience share , winning the slot against ITV 's Wild at Heart and the Dancing on Ice results show . It was the second most - watched programme of the day , behind the first Dancing on Ice programme of the evening . Final figures showed it was seen by 8.42 million viewers on BBC One and 279,000 on BBC HD . Sam Wollaston for The Guardian said he was missing the interplay between Rodney and Del Boy from the original , and that the only fun in the drama was `` recognising the nods , working out who 's who and how it all fits into place . Otherwise , it 's pretty lame . '' The Daily Mirror 's Jim Shelley did n't find the storyline `` interesting or convincing '' , finding Lyndhurst 's performance as Freddie `` laughable '' and saying it was `` bizarre '' that the storyline `` virtually abandoned its main character ( the young Del Boy ) and its best actor ( the engaging James Buckley from The Inbetweeners ) who played him '' . In The Independent , Tom Sutcliffe said that `` the narrative 's focus was blurred and the pacing weirdly off -- quite a lot of the time you were well ahead of the drama and hanging around for it to catch up with you '' . Benji Wilson from The Daily Telegraph also was n't impressed saying the viewer would have been disappointed if they `` tuned in wanting to be entertained , enthused , or anything in between '' , and that it was an `` ocean - going stinker '' . However , The Scotsman 's Paul Whitelaw said that , despite a `` disjointed '' plot and it being `` overstretched at 90 minutes '' : `` It was actually pretty good . Not great , not perfect , but a watchable production from which everyone emerged with their dignity intact . '' He said that Buckley `` delivered a charming performance in what was effectively a supporting role . Wisely choosing to suggest Del 's familiar mannerisms without opting for outright impersonation , he carried off a difficult task with modest élan . '' Writing for The Stage , Harry Venning found the performances `` top notch '' and praised the script as `` first class '' , saying `` the comic moments were of the highest quality and beautifully crafted into the narrative '' . Andrew Billen from The Times described Bright 's portrayal of Joan as `` winsome '' , said Lyndhurst `` produced a detailed performance '' and that `` Rock & Chips was better than the sequel that preceded it . '' Keith Watson in the Metro also praised the performances of Buckley and Bright , saying `` They deserved a show all to themselves . '' Although he found the period detail `` squeaky clean '' and `` unconvincing '' , he closed his review by saying : `` Somehow it made me care about the Trotters in a way decades of Only Fools and Horses never came close to . '' Home Media ( edit ) The pilot of Rock & Chips was released on Region 2 DVD on 5 April 2010 . The Christmas special `` Five Gold Rings '' was released on DVD on 28 March 2011 . On 2 May 2011 a three - disc DVD set titled `` Rock & Chips - The Complete Collection '' was released , comprising all three of the episodes .
