“Only Fools and Horses” releases newly found archive footage from the 1991 episode “The Class of ’62”, including an unseen scene showing Raquel’s audition to become a nightclub singer. The footage is presented as part of a wider release that draws on material recently recovered from the show’s archives.
Multiple outlets frame the news around the cast and the context of the discovery. The Independent reports that co-star David Jason says he felt “very sad” after watching the show’s archive clips were lost, while also highlighting new footage that includes Raquel’s unseen audition scene. Home (Mail Online) and the Daily Mail both stress a documentary-style reunion, describing how cast and crew reunite decades later to discuss and dissect the newly found clips, with Raquel’s “disastrous” audition being a key focal point.
