The creator of Britain's most successful comedy, Only Fools and Horses, is currently in Majorca writing the hotly expected next three episodes of the hit series. John Sullivan confirmed this week that the Trotters will return in a brand new episode for Chrismas Day as the highlight of festive viewing on BBC1. Sullivan told a British Sunday newspaper last week that said he has got the story mapped out and is now working flat out on the script. Studio dates have apparently been booked for November and all the gang are up for it including David Jason, Sullivan was quoted as saying. Sullivan had originally agreed to write three festive episodes of the hit show for Christmas but abandoned the plan when BBC bosses failed to book David Jason on time. Sullivan said Luckily David has made room in his busy schedule to film one of the shows. I'm still writing the other two episodes and they will be shown as specials in the New Year, possibly at Easter.
