Same. I wept when he died. I went to a primary school fancy dress as Rik and my sister went as Vivian. I literally laughed til I cried watching Bottom.
Rik was simultaneously a complete bastard while also being the coolest guy in the room. Amazing talent and a very funny guy. Hope Ade is getting on ok.

I've started watching the full series lately. RIP Rik Mayall. There will never be another comedy genius like this man ever again and they don;t make programmes like they used to either. I have read Him and Ade were meant to do a series of 2 old men in an old people's home a few years before he died. The idea was imagine Bottom in an old people's home and them smacking each other over the head with colostomy bags. We can only imagine what might have been......
These two were hilarious just on their own. They were like grown up naughty schoolboys messing with each other every time they got a line wrong. No matter what, it was always entertaining.

Greatest comedy team of all time, making some of the greatest comedy shows of all time. Bottom, The Young Ones and Filthy Rich and Catflap a couple examples of the work of these two geniuses. There is nothing on TV now that even comes close to the masterpieces these two produced.
I don't know why, but I really love the way Adrian laughs then says, ''I'm winning so far.'' Can imagine being on that set and holding a contest to see who shags up their lines the least!
I used to watch all this as a kid (probably should not have) but I used to love it and I re-watched the entire show again recently and the sheer volume of stuff that went over my head as a kid is great cos it was like watching it brand new again. I think I just laughed at the absurd violence when I was young and some of the more obvious and stupid lines.. still laughed like a child watching it again. RIP Rik, and thanks for the all the laughs. Thank you as well, Ade.
They used to air this and Young Ones on a tv channel for kids in Canada. Since stuff needs to be cut down to 22:18 to fit the North American timeslot (more ads) they'd just make anything not appropriate for kids the first thing to go. Since both shows are already weird and sometimes have abrupt scene changes it wasn't obvious. It was nice when I finally watched the vhs versions and saw it uncut. Like getting to watch every episode for the first time twice.
I let my children watch it too. All they saw was two funny men getting into fights and hurting themselves - a bit like Tom and Jerry. The rude stuff went over their heads. We still watch it together. They are in their late 30s now.
Nothing can or ever will beat these two on form. We are so so lucky to be around when they were around and I am so so sad that I never saw them in a live performance. All those that did you are very lucky indeed yes very lucky indeed !!!!!!!!!!!!!! R.I.P. Rik you are missed more than you will ever know ..Hope you are clowning around up there ..You will have them in stitches !!
I am always amazed at the timing of the fights. Here and during their live shows, 9 times out of 10 it really looks like they're connecting. Sometimes the violence seems so fake you wonder where the choreography went so wrong.
4:15 is burned into my memory, because back in the day of VHS all BBC comedy videos (in Australia at least) had that small snippet as part of a montage at the start. And being VHS it was usually more trouble than it was worth to fast forward through it. So I saw it a LOT. And I don't regret it.
The fortune seller scene is hilarious. He gives her 5p, then she drops into a broad London accent and tells him "For 5p your future's going to look pretty bleak, mate".
@@makeitsonumberone1358 .......... Actual Gypsies are mainly Romanian, so the fact she CAN speak English, should be the problem here. Not that Knuckledragging crap you're spouting.
Rik was such a character changer, so versatile in so many roles, one of the greats of comedy acting this country has ever produced! Adrian was a one dimensional guy, still funny but one dimensional in all his roles.
Such a huge shame Rik Mayall died he was a genius at pure comedy! Makes you wonder if he had still been alive now, what amazing comedy we would have had to see from him?
"That's right, it was me" "Merry Christmas, Dennis Norden!" "I'm winning so far" "It's not continuity, we'll get letters!" "Oh f**k, you got it right!" "I AM CALM!!!" Their bad takes were just as funny as the show.
I was helping with the lighting crew on alot of these, only 18 at the time, watched them re-hearse these scenes to figure out how to get the most laughter in different scenarios getting them "wrong".
Simply the 2 BESTEST people in comedy loved Bottom, the young ones, dangerous brothers, filthy rich n cat flap etc. I was young when I was 1st introduced 2 these 2. SIMPLY BREATH TAKING. R.I.P RIM MAYALL
He was a very funny, very charming, very obviously talented actor in the making. I still have a ticket from his school performance of 'Rosencrantz and Guildenstern' and a treasured photo of the 'KSW Smoking Club' - smoking being a total no-no. He was a day-boy and I a boarder. I stayed with him in Droitwich with his parents when I first left Kings. Saw him on stage years later but didn't want to look like a hanger-on....I wish I'd said hello.
I have to say so many comedians from this era and before seem to have some controversy connected to them, with people either loving or hating them nowa days... I have never ever seen a bad word written about these guys. And you strike up friendships in even completely different forums from just saying the shortest Bottom quote! I'm gonna go as far as saying Rik and Ade are absolute national treasures!

This and red dwarf are my entire childhood. Bottom was just amazing when i first saw it. Loved the young ones too
Rik was my idol when I was growing up, one of the best comic actors to have ever lived. RIP Sir
And mine💯
Pure genius. R.i.p.xx
The Goat of comedy, RIP Sir
Same. I wept when he died. I went to a primary school fancy dress as Rik and my sister went as Vivian. I literally laughed til I cried watching Bottom.
Him and Alan Rickman I did shed a tear. Wished we had seen him as Peeves.
The Laurel and Hardy of our times. Surprisingly innocent and brilliant. Thank you Rik and Ade, I spend a bit of time with you whenever I can.
Indeed! It always puts a smile on my face!
Well said.....RIP Rick

I can't believe this was filmed with a live audience, that is just fantastic
So that also means even the series are a ‘live show’ and the laughter track/audience is real and not added...
Saw one of their live shows too.

They truly are one of the greatest comedy duos.
Yes indeedy doo
Sadly we'll never get to see any other comedy duos like them ever again. Rip Rik.
Couldn’t agree more.
Modern day laurel & hardy, with frying pans.
The Comic Strip presents Mr Jolly lives next door is defenatly worth checking out too
I feel blessed to have seen them live and were simply fantastic. Comic Gods
I love seeing their faces switch from Richie and Eddie expressions to Rik and Ade expressions

I didn't know about that planned series, I could imagine it being somewhat like the 'old gits' from Harry Enfield and chums etc.
I'd rather not imagine bottom in old people's homes - think of the smell 😅
These two were hilarious just on their own. They were like grown up naughty schoolboys messing with each other every time they got a line wrong. No matter what, it was always entertaining.
Worship these guys. Me, my mum and my sister used to rush to the telly to watch this every Weds evening 😁😁
You must of not had a life to watch these two filthy dirty guys. I don’t believe people don’t see how nasty these two are.

MissyB 75 really? 🙄😆
Saw bottom twice live on stage both times in Hammersmith I've never laughed so much
R.I.P. Mr Mayall a true comedy legend
You absolute bastard:
Saw them at the Apollo in Manchester, around 1993.
"Ha, missed both my legs."
🏏😆
I saw them in Hammersmith too, a riot. RIP Rik, The People's Poet.
RIP Rik!!

I miss Rick Mayall so much, these two were always my favourite comedians, no one comes close
Loved you Rik thanks for the laughs and being there when we were much younger. Blessings.. take care of Robbie C. for us too.. love & blessings xx
I used to love watching this on BBC2 years ago. Great show!
What about now 🤷♂️
@@oasis3724 It's not on BBC2 anymore?
Rik is so adorable, love him

10 years later and 1 minute in and I'm already laughing! Comedy Gold!
8:45 "when oh when will the BBC wake up and realise that fish fingers go this way round" 🤣😂
I was born in 1976 I started school in 1980 this is encoded within me. pure genius,pure comedy.🐜
Always was always will
I don't know why, but I really love the way Adrian laughs then says, ''I'm winning so far.'' Can imagine being on that set and holding a contest to see who shags up their lines the least!
What time stamp was that
You’ve got to love the sheer joy of these two!
I like how Ade is playing death and falls over. Then needs help getting up and says "it's great to be alive"
These two people worked seamlessly with each other in numerous shows, brilliant every single time. Thanks 🙏 guys for all of your hard work.

Had the same experience. Grew up with this show. Fucking love it.
Same, but I haven't rewatched it all yet.
I let my children watch it too. All they saw was two funny men getting into fights and hurting themselves - a bit like Tom and Jerry. The rude stuff went over their heads. We still watch it together. They are in their late 30s now.
How have I never seen the Bottom outtakes until now??? I didn't even know there was any let alone 15 fantastic minutes of it! Thanks for the upload!
Absolutely brilliant. Was a fan since the young ones.
Nothing can or ever will beat these two on form. We are so so lucky to be around when they were around and I am so so sad that I never saw them in a live performance.

The Gas episode is one of the best moments in UK comedy. Timeless! (you can never have enough frying pan...) xxx

Love to Rik and Ade from Sweden!!! English Comedy - the best!!
Rik was such a character changer, so versatile in so many roles, one of the greats of comedy acting this country has ever produced! Adrian was a one dimensional guy, still funny but one dimensional in all his roles.
Bloody brilliant just as much today as back in the day
BEST BRITISH COMEDY EVER!!!!!
I love it.
Gee, those outtakes are absolutely hilarious with Rik and Ade's slapstick comedy! LOL!
It's mad how this gnarly show gives me more childhood nostalgia than all of the children's shows altogether
loved growing up watching the most amazing comedy ever on British tv.will never be the same
Bottom was so funny😂 Spudguns potatoes and the Halloween prod was my favorite.
Whenever I’m depressed this is my Prozac lol
12:24 Ade's laugh is hilarious.
I know😂
You look like Rik Mayall
I AM CALM!
@@Linda-gi1dy I look nothing like Rik Mayall.
Bottom is timeless, youngones is great, but it's a product of its time.. this never ages
Bedankt dat jullie de wereld heb laten lachen julie zijn mijn helden rip vriend
Love Ade and Rik and met Ade last year and is a top bloke. R.I.P Rik. Still miss him and always will.☹️
God bless you Rik.
Did not expect to find this as a recommened video...
Glad I did. Love this show!
R.I.P. Rik Mayal... you *bastard!*
(Ade's words; not mine.)
God I LOVE this even got my 12year old son into this, I’ve loved Rik Mayall since I watched Young Ones even though I was born in the 90s
The Young Ones transcends time and space.
Rik and Ade can do no wrong for me. I must be one of the few people wishing for a Blu Ray of Guest House Paradiso.
Must have been impossible trying to keep a straight face filming this.
One of the best comedies of all time.
I passed a drama exam with the thought of Rik and Aid in mind .... SlAPSTICK was and still is the best .. And Always Will Be
Absolutely hilarious I love those guys they were so good together
Miss Rik. What a absolute legend
Such a huge shame Rik Mayall died he was a genius at pure comedy!
Makes you wonder if he had still been alive now, what amazing comedy we would have had to see from him?
Unless he was silenced by the wokey snowflakey minority who always seem to get their way.
"That's right, it was me"
"Merry Christmas, Dennis Norden!"
"I'm winning so far"
"It's not continuity, we'll get letters!"
"Oh f**k, you got it right!"
"I AM CALM!!!"
Their bad takes were just as funny as the show.
When, oh when will the BBC realise that the fish finger was that way round
I was helping with the lighting crew on alot of these, only 18 at the time, watched them re-hearse these scenes to figure out how to get the most laughter in different scenarios getting them "wrong".
You lucky git
Suited them!
Suited them!
One of the greatest comedy duos ever 😊
That's set me up for the day. 😃 Brilliantly funny.
Great to see the wonderful Liz Smith in this compilation, also.
Yes! .... also a Legend .... some people abroad might not know her .... worth checking her stuff out. Very funny lady. RIP.
We need this humour again I always liked these two watched them a lot as a kid here in Australia R.I.P rik

When you click LIKE before the opening credits have even finished, because you know you’re gonna love it ❤️❤️😂👍🏼
Just brilliant and one of the actors who was drinking with Adrian was in The Young Ones with them both. He was the leader of the house.
Mike!
Never gets old 🤙 appsolutely fantastic classic 👏
Nothing really compares
💚 It thank you
Used to watch this my Dad as a kid, absolutely class.

Lol he was like “you want me to come in to THAT reading?!”
Yesterday a van was parked up with these guys on the back with "Its the gas man" wrote underneath, it defenatly made me smile
Thank you Rik and Ade. 👌
I've been quoting this for 30 years. It's never done me any harm.
Nana from The Royle Family....along with 'Bottom', two of Britain's finest.
From all the lads on the ark royal 🤣🤣🤣
Brilliant comedy genius! Still as funny today as it ever was.its another Brussels sprout!

The fortune teller and the minding the shop episodes were my favourite lol
Only Rik could make the V sign so funny
Bottom still makes me laugh now 😂✌️❤️.
05:33 Adrian's laugh.... xD "I'm winning so far"
When Britain had humour n allowed to express not the puppets we have now .. miss these legends ..
Amen
Nobody is stopping you 🙄
Just about the funniest thing I have ever heard is when Rik says, "Why won't anyone have any sex with me?" Just fantastic.
I got all three of the series on DVD and the five live shows too. Oh and film they did in 1999. It was on Netflix too but they took it off there.
Lovely Liz Smith there as well!
