Mickey Pearce of Only Fools and Horses Dies at 68

The legendary Only Fools and Horses actor Patrick Murray has died aged 68 after his battle with lung cancer.

The star was best known for playing as Cockney chancer Mickey Pearce in the classic BBC comedy show. 

He previously battled lung cancer but was given the all-clear until a year later it had returned and spread to his legs and pelvis. 

In 2023 revealed a part of his liver has been removed after doctors discovered a malignant growth in 2022.

He told followers: ‘I am going home today.'”Minus half a liver and a tumour that the wonderful Prof Heaton removed last week. I kept this under my hat that they’d discovered another primary cancer last year.
