From the Wikipedia article
Edward Kitchener "Ted" Trotter, better known as Grandad, (1905–1985) is a fictional character who was one of the original leads of the BBC sitcom Only Fools and Horses. He appeared in the show's first three series, played by Lennard Pearce. The character is grandfather to Del Boy and Rodney Trotter. Pearce's death in December 1984 was written into the series with the death of Grandad. His place was taken by Uncle Albert (Buster Merryfield). The character was portrayed by Phil Daniels in the prequel series Rock & Chips.
