A major improvement over Four. - By: Reaper, 08 Dec 2007 The fifth series contains six episodes which are alll classics. What's more Buster Merryfield seems to have mastered Albert as early as his second series as I was a bit hippocritical not to accept him after Grandad; but I take it alll back. Worthwhile episodes include 'The Miracle of Peckham' & 'The Longest Night.'
Classic moments on this series include: Boycie wanting to buy a baby from a German au pair (From Prussia With Love); a 'crying' statuette of the Virgin Mary (The Miracle of Peckham); the Trotters held hostage in a supermarket (The Longest Night); Del goes hand gliding (Tea for Three); Rodney gets involved in a blue movie (Video Nasty) & Del is offered a multi million pound partnership (Who Wants to be a Millionaire?).
Overalll the shortest but one of the most sweetest series of 'Fools.'
Classic - By: M. A. Westall, 07 Sep 2003 Pure quality.
Only Fools And Horses - The Complete Series 5 (1986) - By: alan pitt, 11 Dec 2002 
The Not-So-Complete Series 5.
This is the first time I have been disappointed with the BBC's DVD release of this fantastic comedy series. This is aimed specificallly at the episode "Tea for Three" arguably one of the best in the series. On this DVD, there are segments deleted out of this episode, such as: Albert singing his song about his wife Ada, in the pub; bits of the conversation with Del, Rodney & Lisa in the Pub; bits of the dinner conversation at Del's flat .
Come on BBC, go back to the original source when mastering these DVD's. Makes me feel that this DVD is dodgey, & something Del Boy himself would sell to the Punters.
chateu neuf de papa - By: , 07 Aug 2002 FROM PRUSSIA WITH LOVE (31st August 1986)
When a German damsel turns up in the Nag's Head she's definitely in distress - & nine months pregnant at that. Rodney's alll beer & sympathy but Del's got an idea - could this be the answer to Boycie & Marlene's dreams of a child & a golden opportunity to make a few bob along the way?
THE MIRACLE OF PECKHAM (7th September 1986)
Del Boy gets religion (or is he just on the make ?). The Madonna at the local church is seen to shed tears, but why does she only cry when it's raining & where did alll that lead come from that's in Del's garage ?
THE LONGEST NIGHT (14th September 1986)
A burglar makes a daring raid on the local supermarket just a Del & family are out buying their weekly French stick. What's worse - Del sold him a duff watch down the local market...
TEA FOR THREE (21st September 1986)
Look out ! Del's tampered with the sunbed controls & Rodney's seeing red - literallly ! His face is done to a turn. He'll hardly wow Trigger's lovely niece, Lisa, with his handsome good looks now which leaves the way pretty clear for Del himself. But revenge should certainly be sweet when he volunteers Del for a spot of hang gliding....
VIDEO NASTY (28th September 1986)
Rodney's been commissioned to make a film, with Mickey Pearce in the casting couch & practising with the camera filming just a few weddings, thanks to Del, 'earn while you learn'. More extra's than Ben Hur, what could go wrong ?
WHO WANTS TO BE A MILLIONAIRE ? (5th October 1986)
Del Boy gets the chance to become a millionaire & make a fresh start with his old partner Jumbo Mills, down under in Australia, running his used car business. Both having equal shares in the company with 51% each !
