    He talks with such ease, comfort and familiarity it's difficult to watch him without feeling like he's one of your mates. Especially when he turns to camera. He must have been such a friendly, warm, entertaining man to know. I wish I could have met him.

    He was not just my favourite comedian but my idol. RIP This news really hit me hard and my thoughts go out to his friends and family.

    I miss his joy, it was unfiltered from his heart to the camera--notice how he can't help but look in the camera? I love that about him.

    absoulutely agree..the new statesman, living doll, bottom....so really sad for all of his family, his wife, and why do we have to wait until someone passes away, before we see the very best of them?

    For me , Rik playing Colin Grigson in Bad News tour and More Bad News , and the subsequent album, had so many gems to quote , that to this day my son and I regularly quote Rik....a true genius , long live Colin the bass player ....RIP

    Such an example. I think mr. Mayall outlived every nasty obstacle and shared it with us, as if life is to be laughed at.

    I saw this show live about a month after this. It was amazing, Rik was just a force of nature on stage. He was the least professional person on stage, the rest of the cast acted their parts with deadly seriousness. Rik was just having fun, even if he fluffed a line he looked at the audience and laughed. He constantly broke the fourth wall. He was a just funny person and had this ability to make everyone in audience feel like they were sharing an in joke with him. A very rare talent and performer.
