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.
Thats becuase he can act
@@floridaangler5904 Good one
I was shocked when he died.
A Great Man 💙
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.
Absolutely , the man was a comedy legend . I miss him so much.
Lovely man, great sense of humour. The world will miss him.
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.
Makes me chuckle everytime I hear him even in a straight interview. Just brilliant, sadly missed
I am pretty much in shock. I absolutely loved him. This is a great loss.
Literally the best person ever
There should have been a TV series of Flashheart.
taken too early - thanks for all the laughs Mr Mayall. Truly will be missed.
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?
such a legend :(
RIP Rik. What an absolute legend.
RIP Rik Mayall one of the many comedians I grew up with.
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
"Mummy !!!", Brilliant !!
Such an example. I think mr. Mayall outlived every nasty obstacle and shared it with us, as if life is to be laughed at.
A true one off, we'll never see the likes of him ever again. RIP
I think Rik was one of a kind,hard to come to terms with his death,certainly too young.He gave happiness to many of my generation,I thank him for that...he brightened the 80s..........RIP.
Absolutely agree, when The Comic Strip Presents was on we always said first and foremost " is Rik in this one?".A true, genuine legend. God Bless Him !
He may be deed. But he lives on, as do all great entertainers. Cant wait to watch all the re runs in his honour. RIP mate
Gutted he has died. Loved Young Ones and bottom. R.I.P Legend
What a great guy Rik was ! I miss him. RIP Mr Mayall.
Nice interview. Seems a very genuine person. So young.
Gutted by the news. Loved his work and even his interviews were brilliantly entertaining.
Love rik mayall devastated he's gone 💖💖
He was so cool. hahaha. I bet it was cool as heck being his friend
Gone but not forgotten.
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.
so i just read about his death in the newspaper. anyone know about what happened to him? I am a huge fan of bottom and drop dead fred, black adder, the young ones. Rik was hilarious
bottom was disgusting so was dropdeadfred
😥❤️👏 thanks for the laughs
It's a shame Adam Boulton is such a knob.
He knew the truth and exposed it . He didn’t just die ! Did he sky?!
Tracy R* agreed 100% Rik was one of the good ones in a sea of satanic filth. I’m still devastated that he’s gone and furious at those who silenced him
I wish that the comments section in the new statesman clips were open!
social presence like no other, shame he had to go, he did what he always did though, finish at the top.
sad news today rip rik, he was one hell of a funny guy .
R.I.P Rik
RIP RIK❤
The Young One's die too soon. A true genius has departed this earth.
hard to believe he is 50 now he was only 20 in the eighties
R.I.P. Rik
What a legend R.I.P

Should we resurrect spitting image, it would be so much better with recent events
May not be so clever now though?! Anything to do with spitting or coughing is a total no no with recent events.
So fry done a runner
:'( funniest man
Jesus come on !
Nice Satanic hand sign at about 1.55
Pity he had to mention God. I guess it's because of the brain injury.
Gary Nicholls: He was clearly joking, mate.
