Down to Margate Only Fools fan's 400-mile Jolly Boys pilgrimage

September 01, 2025

WHILE Bristol has no shortage of Only Fools And Horses filming spots, one local fan yearned for a little bit more from his Bank Holiday.

Down to Margate Only Fools fan's 400-mile Jolly Boys pilgrimage

Jason Allen, 34, set off from Bristol at 4am last Monday for the 16-hour, 400-mile round trip to Margate for his very own Jolly Boys’ Outing, the classic 1989 Christmas special.

He visited nine locations from the beloved British sitcom - and didn’t return home until 8pm.

Although he was “shattered” after the trip, Jason, a recycling plant operator, said it was an “amazing” experience and admitted he’s already planning which locations he'll head to next.
