Five years ago, Patrick Murray, known for his role as Mickey Pearce in the popular sitcom Only Fools and Horses, received a fine for parking in a disabled space at McDonald's. He explained that he had been instructed by a server to park there while he waited for his food. The initial ticket was less than £100, and he even complained to the manager about it at the time.
However, recently, Patrick has received countless letters from a private parking firm demanding that he pay £2800. He expressed his frustration on social media, calling the fine "devastating" and pointing out that it could be a significant burden for many people. He also called for tighter regulations around the practices of private parking firms.
Since revealing his cancer diagnosis, Patrick has been keeping his fans updated on his health journey. He has spoken openly about the intense pain he has endured and the challenges he has faced. Despite this, he remained positive and shared that the pain was getting less after starting radiology treatment.
In a more recent update, Patrick shared that he had to abort a trip to the emergency room due to a 10-hour wait to see a doctor. He expressed his frustration with the NHS, stating that the system is seriously flawed and needs to be fixed.
Patrick was first diagnosed with lung cancer in 2021 and had an operation to remove a tumour in October of that year. In May of the following year, he shared that he was "cured" and that the tumour in his liver was shrinking. However, in January of the next year, he revealed that a second cancer had been found.
After Only Fools and Horses, Patrick went on to appear in movies such as The Firm and Curse of The Pink Panther. He eventually left acting and became a taxi driver in Kent.
The Agency has reached out to McDonald's for a comment on the incident. Only Fools and Horses is currently streaming on Prime Video.
