Pub landlord captures moment customer falls over on CCTV – just like Del Boy did on Only Fools and Horses

The landlord of The Arden Inn in Accrington uploaded the CCTV footage for all to see

Del Boy's fall through the bar is one of the most memorable moments from the show (PA)

Del Boy falling over in the bar is a timeless piece of comedy from Only Fools and Horses, but this man’s fall clearly was not scripted.

At The Arden Inn pub in Accrington this weekend a man who thought he was leaning back onto a pool table was sorely mistaken, and the whole thing was caught on CCTV.

The man proves his worth as a real-life Del Boy further still when he manages to keep hold of his glass.

Pub landlord Mark Duxbury, who uploaded the footage on to YouTube, wrote: “A customer moves pool table to make way for the band, another forgets and goes to lean on the table...awww.”

And though it's good, it's still not quite as good as this comedy gold
