David Jason, known for his role in "Only Fools and Horses," has criticized modern television for being too vulgar. He believes that the loss of previous decency rules has led to a decline in manners and respect in language. While promoting his memoir, Jason recalled how the show's writer had to creatively navigate BBC rules to avoid offensive language. He noted that today’s shows often use expletives freely, which he finds problematic. Jason expressed some disappointment that many people only remember him for his iconic character, Del Boy. He feels that his other work has been overlooked despite its significance.
