The real-life Del Boy who's made a billion (even though he can barely read or write)
Chris Dawson, 62, (left) from Plymouth, Devon, is the owner of The Range discount store chain and has just been named as the 77th richest billionaire in Britain. He opened the first store in 1989 and there are now 88 stores across the country, employing more than 2,500 workers. Mr Dawson is often referred to as the local 'Del Boy' (like Derek Trotter in Only Fools and Horses, right) and has even had a £35,000 DE11 BOY private number plate mocked up for his £250,000 Rolls-Royce Wraith coupe (left).
