Only Fools and Horses: Rodney listens to Mozart with Trigger
Roger Lloyd Pack earned a fortune after starring as Trigger in the comedy classic Only Fools and Horses.
The late star died of pancreatic cancer in 2014 and left behind £1.5 million, but he didn’t have a will.
His estate was shared between his widow Jehane Markham and his four kids – who included actress Emily Lloyd and his sons Spencer, Hartley and Louis.
However, some of his co-stars didn’t manage to earn as much as the Trigger actor.
Lennard Pearce – who died in 1984 – played Grandad in the hit TV series and had an estate that didn’t “exceed” £40,000.
Fellow co-star John Challis – Terrance ‘Boycie’ Boyce – died last month “after a long battle with cancer”.
Details of his financial estate have not yet been released.
Following his death aged 79, his family released a statement saying: “It is with heavy hearts that we bring you such sad news.
“Our dear friend and yours, John Challis, has died peacefully in his sleep, after a long battle with cancer.
“He will always be loved for being ‘Boycie’ and leaves a great legacy of work that will continue to bring pleasure and smiles for many years to come.
“Please respect the privacy of John’s family and friends at this difficult time, and be assured that in the future there will be an occasion to celebrate John’s life – when everyone will be welcome to come along.”
Other iconic actors who starred in Only Fools and Horse include David Jason who played Del Boy.
