Where did the term Hooky Street originate?
The term "Hooky Street" originated from the popular British sitcom "Only Fools and Horses." In the show, Hooky Street is the fictional location of the market stall run by the main characters Del Boy and Rodney Trotter. The street name is a play on words, as "hooky" is slang for something that is stolen or obtained illegally, reflecting the characters' often dubious dealings. The show's creator, John Sullivan, chose the name as a nod to the characters' dodgy dealings and the comedic situations that arise from them.
