Obituary: Robin Stubbs, the costume designer who gave Del Boy a flash new look

In the era of Margaret Thatcher and get-rich-quick schemes, Stubbs moved Del's look away from his market-trader gear of sheepskin coat and flat cap, and dressed him instead in upmarket suits bought for hundreds of pounds at Austin Reed in Regent Street, London.
