The Momentum Group presents: Real Talk Fridays

An Audience with Tony Dow

BAFTA-Winning Director of the Iconic Only Fools and Horses

Kicking off our Spring Programme of ‘Real Talk Fridays’ and grazing boards. Join us for a truly special night as we welcome Tony Dow, the BAFTA-winning director who helped craft the heart, humour and unforgettable magic of Only Fools and Horses, and whose remarkable career spans some of Britain’s best-loved comedies, including Birds of a Feather, Nightingales, Hunderby, Big School, Stella, After You’ve Gone, and many more.

This intimate evening offers fans a rare chance to step behind the camera and into the world of Peckham’s most loved family; Del Boy, Rodney, Grandad, Uncle Albert and the Trotters’ wonderfully chaotic universe. But it’s also an opportunity to explore the creative mind behind a director who has shaped the tone, timing and spirit of British television comedy for decades.

Expect hilarious, heartfelt and rarely heard stories from Tony’s years on Only Fools and Horses, insights into working with David Jason, Nicholas Lyndhurst and the legendary cast, and a closer look at how some of the show’s most iconic moments were created… from falling chandeliers to falling through bars.

But the night doesn’t stop in Peckham – Tony will also share behind-the-scenes moments from his wider directing journey, offering glimpses into the making of other TV favourites such as Birds of a Feather, the darkly comic Hunderby, the brilliant Stella, and the cult classic Nightingales, revealing what it takes to bring Britain’s comedy gems to life.

You’ll enjoy:

• An in-depth on-stage conversation with Tony Dow

• Behind-the-scenes stories from the making of Britain’s favourite sitcoms

• A live audience Q&A — your chance to ask the questions you’ve always wanted answered

• Wonderful throwbacks to the catchphrases and characters we all adore: “Lovely jubbly!” “You plonker!” “This time next year…” and many more

Whether you’re a lifelong fan or simply love great British comedy, this promises to be a charming, laugh-filled night celebrating the enduring brilliance of Only Fools and Horses and the remarkable career of one of its most influential creators.

As Del Boy would say: “You know it makes sense!”
