Pictured: 'Grandad' unscrews the chandelier in the famous Only Fools and Horses scene

Staff at a stately home managed to avoid a Del Boy moment when they set about cleaning a 200-year-old giant chandelier.

The expensive late 18th century light fixture, which includes 36 bulbs, is suspended 55ft above the grand staircase at Longleat House, Wilts.

Luckily for Longleat, the wrought-iron chandelier did not have to be lowered into a big dust sheet being held by a Del and Rodney pair of workmen.
