Only Fools & Horses - Heroes & Villains (1996 Special 'Batman & Robin' episode) - a unique piece of memorabilia from the classic sitcom - Kenneth MacDonald's (Mike The Barman) personal script from the 1996 then-final trilogy episode, more commonly known as the ' Batman & Robin ' episode. The full episode script, comes signed by several of the main cast, to include; Sir David Jason (Del), Kenneth MacDonald (Mike - 1950-2001), John Challis (Boycie - 1942-2021), Roger Lloyd Pack (Trigger - 1944-2014), Roy Heather (Sid - 1935-2014), Sue Holderness (Marlene), Paul Barber (Denzil), Tessa Peake Jones (Raquel), Patrick Murray (Mickey Pearce) and Ben Smith (Damian in the later trilogy). The script is accompanied by an original studio audience ticket for the show and an original 1996 trilogy studio audience programme from the episode 'Modern Men', signed to the rear by John Challis. The entire collection is accompanied by a lengthy letter of provenance from the Only Fools & Horses Appreciation Society detailing its history and how it was owned by MacDonald. 

' Heroes & Villains ' is perhaps one of the most iconic episodes from the series, and at time of broadcast achieved a record for the show of 21.3 million viewers. The famous scene which sees Del & Rodney foil a mugging whilst dressed as Batman and Robin is often voted one of the funniest comedy moments of all time. In a 2001 poll, the episode was voted the best Christmas show of all time. Such was the appeal of the episode, that during the 2012 London Olympics Opening Ceremony the famous scene was recreated.
