One of the funniest sweaty men that ever existed. When Rik sadly left us, I was generally worried about Ade. These two were inseparable for decades. Direct quote from Ade after hearing of Rik’s death. “He’s died for real. Without me. Selfish bastard”
I am 50 years old and have watched everything with Rik and Ade in it from The Young Ones and everything else they ever did. They were so funny together and their ad libbing was the best. Rest in peace Rik.
And all the grown-ups will say: ‘But why are the kids crying?’ And the kids will say: ‘Haven’t you heard? Rick is dead! The People’s Poet is dead!' :'-(
Am 24 years old and all I can say is these guy were the true kings of comedy, from the Dangerous Brothers to Bottom they brought so much joy. RIP Rik Mayall
I was there that night. Absolutely terrific! I still have the ‘EDDIE HITLER STOLE MY PINT’ t-shirt I bought that evening! So sad that Rik passed away. ‘The People’s Poet’ will always be missed and very fondly remembered. He was a a truly funny man.
Fisher King thank you for red bubble recommendation I went on there to buy the t~shirts then discovered you can join & sell your own designs ~ I’m an artist so have signed up 👍🏻😊
Utter brilliance.....Rik and Ade were the perfect double team. Rik would forget his lines on many occasions, Ade was just Ade, mad as a box full of angry badgers
Rik and Ade messing with each other on stage for two acts straight is funnier than anything else on stage has been in the last 20 years. These two were the best.
What a shame Rik Mayall no longer is with us. Remember his roles with great admiration. My absolute favorites were Lord Flashheart in the series Blackadder and Alan Bastard MP. If you can hear me up there: Woof!
Saw this show in Llandudno with my Brother, when Rick said he could speak Welsh.. He read something out and everyone wet themselves except us, do not speak Welsh. Then Eddy comes out with ' I can speak Welsh ' Rick ' No you can't '... Eddy ' Yes I can ' Rick ' Proof it ' Eddy ' OK ' Eddy walks to the front of the stage and stops, looks around and says ' BAAAAHHHH!! ' Priceless the best comedy duo the world has ever seen.
5 years ago today. Yeah i am shedding a tear today for the loss of my comedy hero! I miss you so much and so glad that i got to see you live. R.I.P Rik
Before Rik became well known he had a (tiny)bit part in the film 'American Werewolf in London'. However, before the film was released 'The Young Ones' started on TV. I went to the cinema to watch the film and the moment Rik appeared on the screen a loud spontaneous cheer went up from the audience. It was quite amazing to witness. 'Drop dead Fred' is one of my favourites.
I was almost rolling of my chair with laughter, until I read the comment section... I didn't know Rik Mayall died. This saddens me profoundly, why do the good ones always die too soon... May his soul rest in peace.
Two of our best at their absolute best. I still think the Christmas Day edition of BOTTOM, with Gold, Frankenstein and Grr, was the one of the funniest shows they did ever. Thanks for posting here.
It’s true- they do speak like this. And I can’t understand a word of it. My wife is from Nottingham and she baffles me every day. But also introduced me to Rik and Ade. Sadly, too late to enjoy anything live- like this masterpiece
Miss you Rik! You and Ade brought my brother and I so many memories, still every holiday or christmas we have to search for Richie scenes from Bottom and send them to each other.
My dad used to watch this all the time, along with faulty towers, Monty Python and life of Brian, he told me he didn't like British comedians (because he was Irish), I think he was lying.
I apologise on behalf of the other two wankers that replied. Sounds like you had a bit of banter with your old man. Nice. My dad used to put on a bit of a scottish accent because he had a bllod transfusio from his dad (Glaswegian) when he was born. I took the piss mercilessly, it was funny as fuck.
I laughed so hard. I never expected to enjoy this so much ! Only discovered these guys today ! RIP Rik ! You will always be remembered with our laughter.
It's always just as hilarious as the skit when the actors, especially blisteringly funny genius comedians in this league, drop character for just an instant. It shows they're having just as much fun as the audience. Rik and Ade were wonderful together. Adrian's final tribute to Rik just about broke me . "Bastard. I was supposed to go first."
I remember when I went to see these brilliant guys for the tour and thinking to myself,"If Rik dies of anything, it'll be a bloody great heart attack!" And unfortunately I was bloody right....miss his humour. I went to see all the tours and thoroughly enjoyed all,of them and bought the DVDs.
I've achieved a lot of my ambitions in life, but it's so sad that I never made it to see Rik live. I used to watch Bottom with my grandpa when I was a kid (don't judge him for it, it gave me one hell of a sense of humour!!!), and I always wanted to go to one of his and Ade's shows. It just goes to show you never know when your time is up. RIP Rik, and thanks for teaching me not to take life too seriously and laugh at myself.
love these guys! feel sad for eddie/ade that ritchie mayall isnt around, but everything has to end sometime.. what great memories i had growing up about 12 years old or so watching bottom with my brothers laughing
These two were brilliant. I was at one of the gigs one night when Rik had the audience in uproar whilst still behind the curtains with the lights out ! Sorely missed
That is INCREDIBLY accurate. Speaking as a long-term Nottingham resident but not native. There's any amount of FOOKIN' all over the place all the time!
No wonder a) Warner Brothers cast Rik as Peeves for Harry Potter, and b) he made the younger cast members laugh so much! He was also brilliant as Flash in Blackadder!
I became aware of Rik n Ade in around 2000 when i watched their flick "guest house paradiso". It is indeed quite remarkable that i ever stumbled over this gem, since Rik n Ade are not very well known in my home country of Germany. I for myself was hooked in an instant about those two guys and their dynamic play. So rest in piece Rik, and thanks for making me laugh in tears, especially when the candle in your eye scene played out.

Rik was a comedy genius. Such a sad loss. We need the people’s poet back.
"But how can the peoples poet be dead, when we still have his poetry".
I'm such a nerd!
Why are the kids crying? o_O
He was a force of nature!
Outstep 33 no they’re not, dumbass.
Meringue... Boomerang....
I am from Nottingham.
This is truly wonderful.
Unlike Nottingham 😂
Nobody could sweat on stage like Rik Mayall.
U need to watch some Lee Evans live. The guy swims in his sweat.
@Jasz Cooseb and he died of a heart attack .. mad
@@mindedchaos it was slightly inconclusive because Riks doctor said he had a strong heart and it was unlikely a heart attack but idk
@rick Woods didn't know he had epilepsy I've got it as well its not good but there are people with bigger health issues out there. Andy England
different genre but Angus Young is a fekkin' fountain when he works.
I am 50 years old and have watched everything with Rik and Ade in it from The Young Ones and everything else they ever did. They were so funny together and their ad libbing was the best. Rest in peace Rik.
Dave Wiseman well done
Dave Wiseman I grew up watching the The Young Ones, bloody hilarious 😂 😂. Always loved Rik.
Same age , yes this was the best comedy ever. Bottom I enjoyed more than the young ones.
Hear, hear!
Mister Jolly Lives Next Door is one of the very best comedies of all time.
Nobody else could take the piss out of an audience and still be adored like RIk and Ade.
most comedians do it...
they were adored becáuse they took the piss out of them.
Becsue they laughed with the audience Instead of laughing at them like the new woke so called comedians..
@@zakofrx Oh fuck off you whingebag. Is it not possible to just enjoy something without having to complain at the same time?
And all the grown-ups will say: ‘But why are the kids crying?’ And the kids will say: ‘Haven’t you heard? Rick is dead! The People’s Poet is dead!' :'-(
The "P" is silent...
Im staying up i wanna watch the dot for a bit longer, wish we had a video then i could watch it in the morning...

I'm 65. The Young Ones came on tv when I was your age.
I was there that night. Absolutely terrific!
I still have the ‘EDDIE HITLER STOLE MY PINT’ t-shirt I bought that evening!
So sad that Rik passed away.
‘The People’s Poet’ will always be missed and very fondly remembered. He was a a truly funny man.
AlphaOscarRomeo you are a lucky man 👍
Hope you weren't sat in H17!
@Peter Möller redbubble.com has some bottom t shirts
My dad went to every bottom show, and I stole his t-shirts 😂😂

This is chemistry that just cant be faked. When it happens it’s magical. RIP Rick
Dear God. Can we have Rik back please?
Do you want zombie comedians? Because that's how you get zombie comedians.
No he is dead...
Wasn't that funny
No, he's having a wank
We'll trade ya justin bieber and throw in Tim Westwood as a bonus

not to rain on your parade, but you dó realise the forgetten lines were scripted?
4:14 when rik broke character to laugh at Eddie's Slidle 😂
I love that haha
Loved Bottom 🤣🤣🤣
RIP Rik Mayall actual comedy genius ❤️
RIP Lord Flashheart
When ade said slidle slidle slidle, Ricks reaction was priceless, brilliant duo. Sad rik passed away
The duo are legendary. SO gutted Rik passed away. What a range he had.
Rik and Ade messing with each other on stage for two acts straight is funnier than anything else on stage has been in the last 20 years. These two were the best.

Love the beard! Something for me to hang on too! WOOF
WOOF!
Watch the first series of Man Down...he’s brilliant in it.
Flash by name, flash by nature.
Wish I'd seen them live here. Would have loved to have them take the piss out of common Nottingham accents in the middle of the show lol
dam fucking strate ps im from nottingham (st anns)
wow so sorry to hear that mate
??
Harvy355 it was in response to kurtis having to live in st anns
Lol oh yeah im with you there.
I’m crying about a man I’ve never met. Love ya, Rik. Gonna try to be like ya. In all the best ways. ✨
Robin fookin' Hood!!
(It's working)
I love how effortlessly Ade comes up with a motion that perfectly encapsulates the feeling of the word "slidle" at 4:15
Rik mayall is a genius, i saw him in bristol a few times, boy did he have some fun with that accent!!
Rik Mayal didn't sweat, he oozed charisma, talent and humour.
Haha whatever he oozed he fucking leaked
..." to be or.....slidel, slide, slidel...." BRILLIANT
the way Rik suddenly burst at that too shows how funny it was
Simple improv line and hes pissing himself laughing
@@mikegarty6856 it wasnt improv. It was part of the script. Source : attended another showing and they used the same lines.
Slidle...a fantastic word invented by the late great Rik Mayall. One of many contributions the man gave us.
Still miss him terribly.

"Gorgeous bit of crackling"
I watched all the live shows, brilliant, Rik is greatly missed
Rik Mayall is a true comedy legend and much missed by many. That's also about right for a Nottingham Accent lmao.
not enough ay up ducks for my liking
It’s true- they do speak like this. And I can’t understand a word of it. My wife is from Nottingham and she baffles me every day. But also introduced me to Rik and Ade. Sadly, too late to enjoy anything live- like this masterpiece
Nottingham is kind of strange accent wise, they either sound kind of northen or southern.
Love Rik and everything he’s ever done
Miss you Rik! You and Ade brought my brother and I so many memories, still every holiday or christmas we have to search for Richie scenes from Bottom and send them to each other.
My dad used to watch this all the time, along with faulty towers, Monty Python and life of Brian, he told me he didn't like British comedians (because he was Irish), I think he was lying.
Maybe it was just cognitive dissonance.
@@SpeccyMan More likely the usual pathetic Celtic resentment and jealousy.

The best comedies. Grew up on these as well.
If he watched all those British comedians all the time he must like them or he wouldn't watch them. It's obvious.
These guys are fookin legends. So much laughter they've brought to many people over the years, but I'm so pissed off that we lost Rik far too early.
Timeless… A 17-year old skit and they just made me spit coffee on my phone.
"Hey Mike! What's the best thing for a hangover?"
"Drinking heavily the night before..."
I see all the love for Rik and rightly so
..but Ade Edmondson is superb
Yes indeed. I love Ade.
Rik and Ade. They were just THE best.
I laughed so hard. I never expected to enjoy this so much ! Only discovered these guys today ! RIP Rik ! You will always be remembered with our laughter.
Absolute geniuses these two!
I've never seen these two before in my life and I'm absolutely dead on the floor laughing.
Watch bottom, bad news, and young ones
And blackadder series 4 episode 4: private plane :)
These two bounce off of each other brilliantly. What a fantastic show.
RIP Rik. You were always my favourite. Much love.
One of the funniest comedians ever, love them, RIP Ric
True words
The Young Ones, and Bottom.
They were a family favourite.
RIP Rik, sadly missed.
The dangerous brothers 🤣
Rik and Aide. brilliant brilliant. Miss Rik every day big kiss to them both X
The young ones was my life as a kid.
Miss Rick still he was brilliant
Brilliant! So funny, I wish that I had seen them on tour. Long live Ritchy and Eddie 😆😉
Well look back at Rick and Ade in years to come like we look back at Laurel and Hardy. Pure comic genius.
Rik, a legend. Great team him & Ade.
Rik made it big time. He was loved then and still now. RIP Rik.

That is INCREDIBLY accurate. Speaking as a long-term Nottingham resident but not native. There's any amount of FOOKIN' all over the place all the time!

This is just perfect. Utterly brilliant in every way.
