Both Fools and Horses were created in 1981. Predominantly found in south London, Fools and Horses are obsessed with schemes to get rich, mostly unsuccessful. Appropriately, the Fools and Horses are often found inside a horse's head, one has camel hair, several have Trotters and copies of their Robin are made by Corgi.(Full article...)

  • Oppose per the comment that 0x0077BE made in the PFW nomination above. There's a huge difference between presenting a humorous article with a standard-style blurb and presenting a humorous article with a blurb like this. This crosses the line, I feel.

  • Oppose running an article with a highly misleading blurb, especially when a featured article about a genuinely peculiar subject (such as Disco Demolition Night) is available. —David Levy 09:34, 21 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • OpposeOnly Fools should run seriously on a different day in my opinion. This seems like a real waste to me. Cliftonian (talk) 10:50, 21 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
