<p>As <a href="/wiki/Del_Boy" title="Del Boy">Del Boy</a> sells cutlery to the local market crowd, <a href="/wiki/Rodney_Trotter" title="Rodney Trotter">Rodney</a> encounters a pretty young woman, and abandons his lookout position to talk to her. At Sid's cafe, she introduces herself as Vicky. As the conversation develops, Rodney discovers that she is Lady Victoria Marsham Hales, of Covington House, <a href="/wiki/Berkshire" title="Berkshire">Berkshire</a>, the daughter of the Duke of Maylebury, who is a second cousin of the <a href="/wiki/Queen_Elizabeth_II" class="mw-redirect" title="Queen Elizabeth II">Queen</a>. She also explains that her mother died in a skiing accident. Sensing a chance to make the Trotter family millionaires, Del decides to assist Rodney's blossoming friendship with Lady Victoria, such as by acquiring tickets for the opera <i><a href="/wiki/Carmen" title="Carmen">Carmen</a></i>.
</p><p>On the night of the opera, Rodney and Victoria arrive, only to see that Del has also attended, along with June Snell (last seen in "<a href="/wiki/Happy_Returns" title="Happy Returns">Happy Returns</a>"), an ex-girlfriend of Del and mother of one of Rodney's old girlfriends. Del and June ruin the night by obnoxiously eating snacks, talking during the performance, and fighting with other members of the audience. Nonetheless, Victoria invites Rodney to stay at Covington House for the weekend. Wanting Rodney to make a good impression, Del insists that he dress as a country gentleman in a tweed suit. Already uncomfortable during the weekend in Berkshire, Rodney is aghast when Del arrives with a confused <a href="/wiki/Uncle_Albert" title="Uncle Albert">Albert</a> in the <a href="/wiki/Reliant_Regal" title="Reliant Regal">Reliant Regal</a>, claiming to have turned up to deliver Rodney's evening suit that he "forgot" (although Rodney knows that he packed it and Del removed it so he had an excuse to turn up). As Rodney tries to calm himself, Del introduces himself to Victoria's father Henry and invites himself to that evening's dinner having coincidentally brought his own evening suit. Del takes part in their <a href="/wiki/Clay_pigeon_shooting" title="Clay pigeon shooting">clay pigeon</a> shoot using a pump-action <a href="/wiki/Shotgun" title="Shotgun">shotgun</a> borrowed from Iggy Higgins, a local bank robber, and quickly begins to anger Henry.
</p><p>At dinner, Del gets <a href="/wiki/Alcohol_intoxication" title="Alcohol intoxication">drunk</a> and starts offending the guests with risqué jokes, implying a wedding between Rodney and Victoria is to be held, constantly talking about <a href="/wiki/Leonardo_Da_Vinci" class="mw-redirect" title="Leonardo Da Vinci">Leonardo Da Vinci</a> and humiliating Rodney by revealing his conviction for possession of <a href="/wiki/Cannabis_(drug)" title="Cannabis (drug)">cannabis</a>. Del finally angers Henry enough by telling a skiing joke (despite knowing that's how Victoria's mother died). In a fit of rage, Henry demands Del meet him outside. As the two leave, Victoria asks Rodney if he's still staying overnight. He reluctantly declines and decides to leave, both understanding that they shouldn't see each other again. Outside, Henry orders that Del, Rodney and Albert are to exit his house immediately. Del tells Henry that Rodney may need to be paid off to leave Victoria alone.
</p><p>Back at the flat, a fuming Rodney rants to a <a href="/wiki/Hangover" title="Hangover">hungover</a> Del how he has always ruined his opportunities to make a success of his life by getting involved, and hurts his hand by punching a vent cover out of annoyance. After Rodney reveals that he refused the offer of a £1,000 pay-off from Henry to stop seeing Vicky (infuriating Del, who had arranged the offer), Del says that had Rodney refused to stop seeing Victoria, he would probably have been assassinated by the <a href="/wiki/Special_Branch" title="Special Branch">Special Branch</a> because of his conviction for drug use. Del half-heartedly apologises to Rodney and asks him to shake his hand, but this turns out to be a ploy for Del to inflict pain on Rodney for refusing the £1,000 by squeezing his injured hand.

<p>This episode was inspired by two things. One was how the younger nobility were becoming closer, apparently, to the working class and the second was stories in the newspapers about Special Branch being employed to protect the younger royals from possible kidnap. Sullivan put these two things together when writing the episode and created the storyline of how Del would protect Rodney and at the same time make a few bob on it. "Although Del comes across as rather cruel in the episode, his heart is in the right place".<sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-1">&#91;1&#93;</a></sup>

<p>The episode was first released on the VHS format. The VHS release has the episode intact as per its original broadcast.
</p><p>The DVD was later released containing the 2004 edited version and not the original broadcast version. This version was heavily re-edited and included a laughter track which the original broadcast did not have, reportedly due to the limited time available between recording and broadcast. The reason for the edits and cuts was Sullivan's dissatisfaction with the original version, feeling that it seemed to show Del Boy in a negative light. Whereas Del was always seen to be a lovable rogue, in this episode there were some scenes where he came over as boorish and offensive.<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2">&#91;2&#93;</a></sup><sup class="noprint Inline-Template" style="white-space:nowrap;">&#91;<i><a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Citing_sources" title="Wikipedia:Citing sources"><span title="This citation requires a reference to the specific page or range of pages in which the material appears. (July 2017)">page&#160;needed</span></a></i>&#93;</sup>
</p><p>The original broadcast version was released on DVD in 2005 with issue 13 of The Only Fools and Horses DVD Collection magazine series. When this 2005 edition was released it included another Christmas special, "<a href="/wiki/The_Frog%27s_Legacy" title="The Frog&#39;s Legacy">The Frog's Legacy</a>". On the back of the DVD case it states "This Has Been Edited for Contractual Reasons." However, there are no edits on the DVD; both "The Frog's Legacy" and "A Royal Flush" are intact, as they were originally broadcast.
