Vinnie Jones to star in Only Fools And Horses Musical in London
Vinnie Jones is making his stage acting debut as Danny Driscoll in Only Fools And Horses The Musical at London's Hammersmith Eventim Apollo from 17th December 2024 to 5th January 2025.
The producers confirm: "Vinnie stars as local crime lord Danny Driscoll - one half of the notorious Driscoll Brothers - who puts the frighteners on the locals and commands respect wherever he goes."
Vinnie Jones says: "I've always been a fan of Only Fools And Horses, and when my longtime friend [producer] Phil McIntyre called me up and said he was interested in me playing the role of Danny Driscoll, I told him to count me in. The director Caroline Jay Ranger and her creative team are great and I'm excited to contribute to the legacy of the show."
Jones will join the cast for 28 performances, appearing alongside Paul Whitehouse (Grandad), Sam Lupton (Del Boy), Tom Major and Darryl Paul (Tony Driscoll).
Following the London dates this Christmas, the musical bids 'bonjour' to Vinnie and heads back out on the road to complete its huge UK and Ireland tour, ending in Dublin at the end of June 2025.
