Only Fools and Horses’ Nicholas Lyndhurst shares quirky at-home TV arrangements

Nicholas Lyndhurst, the iconic star recognised as Rodney from Only Fools and Horses, spills the beans on his atypical telly habits while chatting about his latest role in the Frasier revival alongside Kelsey Grammer.

In a candid interview with Radio Times, the 63-year-old opens up about his lifestyle stateside versus his roots back in Blighty.

The actor shared some personal insights into his domestic life, stating: “I actually haven’t watched television for quite a long time. My living room faces the garden, not the TV, because that feels a bit ‘worky’.”

Nicholas confessed further: “I watch the news and I watch some documentaries, but otherwise I don’t turn on the TV very often. I don’t stream, or binge…I know that’s not the answer you want to hear but no! “.

Prodded on whether he has plans to hang around the US after his stint on Frasier, Nick doused all rumours, eagerly clarifying: “No, no, no. I’m just here for the duration of the show. I’ll go home to the UK afterwards, but it’s absolutely wonderful to be here for now.”

“I’m in my mid-60s at this stage of my career, I wasn’t expecting to be walking through the gates of Paramount Pictures every morning. I probably pinch myself every 20 minutes in this job, because working with Kelsey and working in this building is heartstoppingly wonderful.”

Not only has Nicholas been wowed by LA, but it seems the admiration might be reciprocated. Last year, Frasier’s casting director Jeff Greenberg spoke highly of Nicholas to the Metro.

He said: “The cast is just outstanding, and every one of them really stepped up and did a great job. I’ve never worked with [Nicholas] before and don’t really know his work as well as everyone in the UK.”

“He is a revelation, he is so fantastic. He is really outstanding in this part, he is truly hilarious.”

“I really wasn’t as familiar with him as I could have been, and he just bowled me over. He’s just incredible.”
