The Only Fools and Horses spin-off, The Green Green Grass, started its second series on Friday with 5.4 million viewers, a huge slump from the 9.1 million viewers who tuned in to the show's debut episode last year.

The second series sees Boycie, Marlene and son Tyler now firmly settled into their Shropshire lifestyle. Boycie still yearns for the highlife of the landed gentry so he jumps at the chance to stand for Mayor, putting him on a direct collision course with his patriotic Welsh neighbour, Llewellyn.
