"Licensed to Drill" is an educational episode of the sitcom Only Fools and Horses.[1][2] Even though it was shown in various schools throughout the UK from 1984 onwards (mainly in science lessons), it had never been broadcast. There was some confusion as to who wrote this episode, as the writing credit at the end is to Brian Hague, and not John Sullivan. This credit, however, refers to the documentary clip that the Trotters watched on the television during the episode.[citation needed] John Sullivan wrote the script, as well as writing and singing the theme song, "Licensed to Drill". This episode was Lennard Pearce's final appearance as Grandad as he died not long afterwards.
The episode finally aired as part of The Story of Only Fools and Horses in 2017.
