Corrie actress Stephanie Cole, inset. The 79-year-old has also appeared with Sir David in sitcom Open All Hours and its sequel.

Sir David – best known for playing trader Del Boy Trotter in TV’s Only Fools – was thrilled as a waiting young fan handed him a gift, so he gave the aspiring actress some career advice. The show also reunited him with Darling Buds Of May co-star Philip Franks, who directed it.
