Boycie

Herman Terrance Aubrey "Boycie" Boyce (born 31 January 1948) is a fictional character in the BBC sitcom Only Fools and Horses, played by John Challis.

Boycie is a local second-hand car dealer from Lewisham; for a long time, he was the richest and most successful regular at the Nag's Head pub.

In the episode Sickness and Wealth, in which the series regulars took part in a séance, the medium (Uncle Albert's girlfriend, Elsie Partridge) asked for "an Audrey.

One of his trademarks is his deep, mocking laugh, usually following a sarcastic, biting remark at the expense of other characters, as well as his distinctive South London nasal twang.

It is, however, usually Del, a character more street smart and popular with the Nag's Head social group, who gains the upper hand, often trading on the fact that he has a long-standing, flirtatious friendship with Boycie's wife, Marlene.

Boycie enjoys overt displays of wealth, formerly living in King's Avenue, the most expensive street in south east London.

His criminal record includes convictions for perjury, embezzlement, conspiring to pervert the course of justice, the fraudulent conversion of traveller's cheques and attempting to bribe the Mayor of Lambeth.

At his remarriage, after discovering his forty-year marriage to Marlene was unofficial because the registrar was unlicenced, the vicar names him as Herman Aubrey Boyce.
