Cheapest it's been for a long while. Absolute bargain for one of the best British Sitcoms.
Starring David Jason and Nicholas Lyndhurst, the first ever episode of Only Fools and Horses was broadcast 30 years ago in September 1981. The story of market trader Derek Trotter and his brother Rodney (along with their family and friends – Uncle Albert, Boycie, Trigger et al) would continue through seven series and numerous special episodes. It left us with memorable moments of TV history, additions to the English language – and a series celebrated as Britain’s greatest ever comedy.
Features all the episodes and Christmas specials on 26 discs.

Good price but remember that this boxset has scenes cut out of episodes

Aren't all the dvds of only fools like that? Something like they don't have the music rights for home releases

Amazon have finally got round to price-matching Tesco....taken them longer than usual....
No unfortunately political correctness took a hold , you would need to purchase from across the pond @amazon.com to get the proper ones.

So why are they still unedited when shown on TV?

Haven't got the foggiest. Lol
I remember reading a very indepth review , from some site a while ago about the different boxsets , it went on to say that the cuts are so bad, that Some of the story lines just make no sense and that continuity in the episodes ruined because of the cuts.
Put down the Daily Mail for a second because it's purely the music rights on video releases that are the problem. They can show them on TV as those rights were agreed when they were made but they'd have to make who new contracts for DVD releases and pay a lot of money for the music. There's no "political correctness" conspiracy.

Your best reading link above, where small cuts where made as they felt they may offend people, however the bigger cuts where due to music rights
