Locals on plans to demolish 'Nelson Mandela House'

Available for over a year

You may recognise this London Tower block thanks to the sitcom - Only Fools and Horses. From 1981 for 5 years - Harlech Tower in Acton - not Peckham - doubled up as Nelson Mandela House - home of the much-loved Trotter family. However, in three years time Ealing Council is set to demolish it, along with two other towers, to make way for new housing. There's been mixed reaction. 麻豆社 London's Paul Hawkins has been speaking to locals and Only Fools and Horses super fan Mike Harris. (Image credit: 麻豆社)
