Cushty! Only Fools script fetches £10k

Bidding war on eBay

comedyA rehearsal script from Only Fools And Horses has gone for £10,099 on eBay.

The A5 papers, from the 1989 Christmas Day special,Jolly Boys Outing, has originally belonged to make-up designer Dorka Nieradzik – the aunt of the seller.

Its sale prompted a bidding war, attracting 89 offers from  memorabilia collectors.

The seller wrote on eBay: ‘I listed it for £100 and honestly didn't know if I would get any bids at all! Dorka would be thrilled to know that there are so many fans still watching and supporting the show. 

‘In light of this, I feel it would only be right for me to donate £2000 of the proceeds of this sale to the Maggies Centre, which is a great charity and from whom Dorka received much support.’
