I think the criminal in question, the one who attacked the security guard, was the exception rather than the rule.

I've never seen a thief attack a security guard. Most just give up quietly or, as I said, run away. I don't think petty thieves are, in the main, violent.

As for the Amanda Knox FHM issue, nothing surprises me but don't cancel your subscription ;-)

John Sullivan researched Only Fools and Horses in Peckham and Nunhead and based some of his characters on people he met and observed in pubs and markets. Of course its not a serious social commentary but he did stay true to the vernacular.

Only Fools and Horses was about a wide-boy, a street trader, a ducker and diver, from Peckham. There were and still are people like that. It was about an aspect of society at that time, a micro culture. Today it might be referred to as an underclass. I agree it didnt really reflect Peckham as a whole and the accents were a bit dodgy, particularly Rodney and Trigger, but some of the writing was very astute and reflected reasonably well a world I was familiar with while growing up.

Sorry Computed its just that you say you 'get home the next day.' Thats a protracted shopping trip. Peace.

Full Metal Jacket was filmed in North Woolwich but is a movie about the Vietnam war. Only Fools and Horses may have been filmed in Bristol but it is a sit-com about Peckham

That's not the point.

Only Fools and Horses was set in Peckham and the writer, John Sullivan, did much of his research in Peckham. Are you sure you're not tripping?
