Rodney Catches the Butterfly

This is where Delboy pushes Rodney into the pond.

Location: Ravenscourt Park, Hammersmith

Description: Delboy pushes Rodney into the pond here to catch a rare butterfly in the Only Fools & Horses episode 'As One Door Closes'.

At their mother's graveside, Rodney notices a rare butterfly from the cover of his magazine, that's worth about £3,000 to collectors. After chasing the butterfly around the churchyard, the park and the boating lake, they finally capture it, only for Denzil to wander past and squash it.
