Margate (song)

"Margate" is a song from the album Job Lot by Chas & Dave.

As depicted in the accompanying video, the song is about a coach trip to the traditional seaside attractions of Margate in Kent.

The advert proved popular, and Chas & Dave then wrote the full lyrics for the song, recorded and released it as a single.

The song appears in the 1989 Only Fools & Horses episode "The Jolly Boys' Outing" (about a day trip to Margate) with minor lyric changes from the single version and the voices of David Jason and Nicholas Lyndhurst added.

This version was released on Vinyl in 2019 to mark Record Store Day, and the 30th Anniversary of the episode airing.
