English actor and comedian. He played Derek "Del Boy" Trotter in the long-running BBC comedy series Only Fools and Horses, and Detective Inspector Jack Frost on the ITV crime drama A Touch of Frost.

His last original appearance as Del Boy was in 2014, while Jason retired his role as Frost in 2010.
