Rik Mayall, star of The Young Ones, dies aged 56 !

A great comedy actor passes on way too young. This guy had me rolling on the floor laughing on so many occasions. Did he have most politicians weighed up or what !  B'stard "have you ever woke up in the middle of the night in a Gulag with a rat gnawing at you private parts" ? Wife, "sounds like our honeymoon" Need I say more ? Eddie

  1. He was so funny and ahead of his time. Sad loss.

  2. Great laughs in 'Bottom' Rik and Ade worked well together. Am I showing my age?

  3. That so many people can quote his famous monologues 20-30 years later says a lot, I think, and one of the reasons the 80's were so great.

    "Did you see that? Did you? The voice of youth! They were still wearing flared trousers! Why don't you try a bit of poetry you hippies!"

    Brilliant.
