    I’m a taxi driver in Liverpool and had the pleasure of Rik being a passenger in my cab . Anyway I was on the cb radio to my mate billy and told him I had rik mayall in my cab . Billy didn’t believe me so asked me to ask rik to shout “Vivienne “ down the radio mic 🎤. Rik duly obliged in his best young ones accent . Myself rik and billy were pissing ourselves laughing what a good sport he was . Rip rik 👍

    Rik Mayall knew what Britain was becoming. He tried to make many folk aware & the shit that he knew was coming is now actually happening. That's why he's no longer with us. He foreseen of what was to come. Such a special man supremely talented & extremely funny. He'll never be forgotten. Always will be missed. RIP Rik ❤

      Yes he did a film about the future & although Rik never said the actual words the other actors did, it was so close to the truth, then within a few months I believe he died, too co-incedental for me.

    I spent three months on a Greyhound bus with Rik. (We were touring the US in a UK production of The Comedy of Errors.) First off, as he says here, and Stephen Fry has said, he was incredibly beautiful. An Adonis. Which comedians are not expected to be. And when he was crackingly funny, which he constantly was, it was as unexpectedly, anarchically shocking as his gesture here, when he says 'Smack him!' If we are 'a product of what has gone before', I flatter myself that he is in me, still. (I'd not seen him for six months, when in London, I walked into a pub in Belsize Park, and he was at the bar. He'd barely clocked me, before he yelled "I thought I told you to wait in the car!" His wit was that quick). "Self, self, self, it's all about me!" How we need that satire today! How we are not permitted the violence of his essential satire today! "Dead for five days?" Nope. Alive, beloved, beautiful Rik, for as long as I am alive, at least.

    He was wonderfully talented and he knew what was about to happen when he made 'One By One' he tried to wake people up but i believe he lost his life because of what he knew and his last film he made... I advise us all to watch his last film - he was just wonderful and i am his biggest fan and was heartbroken when he was taken.. but he just knew what was about to happen just love him xxx

    He was definitely trying to wake people up. Loved him.

    I was in need of some lite relief,what with all the misery in the world these days. I just watched a wonderful recorded interview on TH-cam with Stan Laurel in 1959. That really cheered me up,then I watched this incredible and wonderful interview with Rik. And I have come to the conclusion that they are cast from the same mould. What a thing it would be to be able to have a drink or three with these two fantastically funny and charming men.

    Jesus, watching this made me realise how much I miss his humour and presence in British comedy. Listening to him it’s quite obvious how much he influenced other great comics I think, especially Gervais/Brent. So sad he’s gone but so happy to see him again now. RIP Rik xxx

    Rik Mayall is at a level that most of his contemporaries have no idea exists, he takes insanity and makes it a virtue so that those who consider themselves safe in the warm comfort of the status quo are forced to rethink every aspect of their world. But in this interview he has obviously had a smoke 😂😂😂 miss you Rik

    Because that's who he was... His daughter said it about him after he died. He wasn't this perverted swearing obscene guy, it was just a front to his true personality. He was actually kinda shy and very generous and kind.
    You're missed a lot.

      Yes! Yes it fucking did! I still feel it on a small level, looking at stuff like this. It's just hard to process the concept of someone as alive and vital as this no longer being around when he's practically in the same fucking room on clips like this.
      That last line to camera is an absolute killer, too. It pretty much captures his entire essence and everything that made people love him in those few seconds.
