To me, it's quite surprising that so many of the supporting cast of the Trotter's friends have now died. Maybe it shouldn't be given the age of the show, but 68 isn't that old. Roger Lloyd Pack (Trigger) was 69.
RIP.

Only Fools is still held in high regard by the BBC. It's not as if they've tried to distance themselves from it. There are a few dated terms, but the majority of the show still works with a modern audience.
I don't think they repeat it because there are limited spaces to do so on their main channels. It goes to 'Dave' or whatever.
