Onslow's Last Name

Does anyone know Onslow's last name on the show?

This page is missing mention of Onslow's and Daisy's (lack of a) sexual relationship. This is a vital and recurring theme in their scenes, ie, Daisy's constant romanticizing, often brought on by her romance novels, and Onslow's pointed evasiveness.

onslow's hat

Does anyone know what the FH on the front of Onslow's hat stand for? I have been asked this by relatives in USA. 90.192.83.242 (talk) 11:59, 28 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Maybe Fulton Hogan? See here. --Humphrey20020 (talk) 22:28, 8 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Crème de la crème

Onslow's most famous statement: "Oh, fine! — Here we are, surrounded on all sides by no beer!" Sca (talk) 15:08, 25 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Cleanup

I did a lot of cleanup but this article needs a lot more. Particularly, there is a bit about one of the Christmas specials that includes the line "He mentions to Daisy an idea about the universe full of black holes". As written, that makes no sense. It would make far more sense as "idea about A universe" or "the universe BEING full of" but I haven't seen that episode recently enough to know which.

Does that section need to include the fact that Onslow and Daisy once their QE2 tickets in a contest? The sentence as written was gibberish so I rewrote it but left its contents intact. I considered removing that segment as extraneous in order to make the sentence shorter because it is still too long. My original correction was to rewrite it as two sentences but the result was even clunkier than the run-on it is currently. If anyone else can do better: please do. --Kitsunegami (talk) 05:46, 18 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Onslow's car

I believe the car that Onslow drives is a Rover, not a Cortina69.237.89.129 (talk) 18:44, 11 July 2011 (UTC)bguptonesq[reply]

No, Richard drives a Rover 200 series, Onslow drives a Mark IV Cortina. This video identifies the cars with further details Douglasnicol (talk) 21:13, 11 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
