Sir David Jason reflects on how most jokes in Only Fools and Horses remain timeless but identifies one joke that could be considered inappropriate today, commenting, "You are quite hard-pressed to find a joke in Only Fools and Horses that feels date stamped. I've given this some thought... the joke was featured in the 1989 Christmas special and is about a game of Trivial Pursuit. While the humor was fitting for its time, he believes it's no longer acceptable today."
In discussing the specific joke from the 1989 Christmas special, Jason notes how Del Boy struggles to identify a female swan's name and prompts Rodney for help, leading to the punchline, "Got it! It's a Bic," which he feels might not resonate with current audiences. This line epitomizes the changing comedic sensibilities and reflects on the evolution of humor over the decades.
