Rik Mayall was so talented. He could be an arrogant charming womaniser like Flashheart in Blackadder and an utter hopeless git like Richie in Bottom. Truly amazing!
"Do . . you . . have . . someone . . who . . looks . . after . . you?" Ha ha, brilliant line! Rik Mayall was and still is insanely funny. Total genius. Rik and Ade are equal to Laurel and Hardy in my opinion.
Chris Lynn Certainly very close to Laurel and Hardy, but - having seen them both in Waiting for Godot at the Queen’s Theatre in the early 1990s - I would say their Bottom characters owe more of a debt to Beckett.
Brilliant. I always think of it from the gas man’s perspective - just going about his daily business then he gets trapped in a flat with a pair of complete nut cases who make him drink cold tea, tell him they’re in love with him before beating him to within an inch of his life, electrocuting him, attempting to eat him and then trying to throw him out of a second story window. And instead of going to the police, he just turns up for work the next morning to read Mr Rottweiler’s meter😂
even though i grew up with this show and i know every line off by heart, it still makes me laugh very much! This greatly contributed to a very happy childhood! :)
My dad has had DVDs of The Young Ones since the 2000s but had never seen Bottom until I showed him. I've never seen him laugh as hard as he did in a long time. Rest in peace, Rik.
R.i.p rik my man. You were one of the true legends of comedy and one of the best things to come out of Britain. I'm a massive bottom fan and have had plenty of times laughing myself to tears at you and Eddie. Tonight I'm having a drink in memory. I might even stick some bottom on, this ones for you too "GAS MAN GAS MAN GAS MAN GAS MAAAAAN"
how far bbc shows have fallen. they used to have geniuses working independently to create greatness, like these 2. red dwarf, blackadder, steptoe and son etc. mocking politics and all that nonsense, rather than propagandising for them, and sanitising. at least we have the old days...
R.i.p. rik a true legend I remember getting excited to come home from school and watch bottom on VHS. A true legend has left us rip rik you will be missed.
It's incredible, I was watching these scenes from Bottom only recently and felt there were never enough comments or views for what is one of the best pieces of classic comedy ever made. As great as Rik was, his work isn't reflected in the figures on TH-cam and that does him a great deal of injustice.
Still my favorite episode from my favorite tv show cant believe I watched this show so young and understood the humor so clearly, its so universal made for naughty kids and adults alike. I miss him so much even though his appearances in things were so infrequent, weird to think I wont see him pop up in anything again. Miss you forever Rik.
Rik was truly a comic genius, especially in terms of physical comedy - even little things, like the way his face drops in horror at 2.14, when he realises how insane his claims of making love 'on our own' to keep the house warm must sound 😂
Richy " Eddie you've killed him" Eddie dropping frying pan "I never touched him" Richy "no but the frying pan did and you were holding it" Eddie "bollocks he was dead before he hit the floor" Richy starting to panic "what are we going to do" Eddie " about 25 years"
Richie "what are we going to do?" Eddie "about 25 years I think" 🤣🤣🤣🤣 I loved meeting my mates on the way to school the day after bottom was on! We'd reenact the entire episode between us 😂😂 my god life was so much better in those days. Everything was so much easier. The Internet and social media destroyed life as we knew it 😢
Yes I completely agree. I was in my 20’s in the 90’s and life was sooooo much better without social media in my opinion. It has destroyed creativity, humour, spontaneity and expression. We are all yoked to woke and paranoid social conformity.
Rik mayall what a legend loved that man so much I grew up watching bottom/young ones was basically family to me! Sorely missed they'll never ever be a man like him till the end of time!
I literally had this happen to me earlier today and it was the funniest thing ever to happen. My wife was shouting "Who is it?" I was shouting "Its the gasman the gasman the gasman." I was in tears when he left.
Uhm.. once.. upon a time.. there.. there was a.. big forest!.. and in the middle of the forest.. there lived [increasingly desperate].. some trousers!.. called.. DAVE

chapswick Not forgetting the utter bastard MP 😂 Nothing can beat the legendary Young Ones Rick though
Don’t forget Kevin Turvey the brummie wonderkid?! 😂
His name is spelled Rik.
And Adonis Cnut
Legendary comedy 😅
Love the way Eddie calls Richie "dreamboat" 😂😂
The dreamboat of the Thames indeed!

*lT’S THE GASMAN‼️*
The actor who played the gas man it equality as quotable as richie and eddie, actually we probably quote him more in this episode, he was exultant.
The guy playing the gas man is an unsung hero of this scene 😂😂😂
His accent is somehow very fitting too lol.
@@nocturnal1147 I don’t know why but I love how he says”hello”
His name is Mark Lambert if i'm not mistaken
The way Eddie panicks when he's turning off all the gas just cracks me up 😂😂😂😂
*GAS MAN! GAS MAN! GAS MAN!* 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
"YOU MUST! YOU MUST! YOU MUST DRINK OUR TEA!!"
+Edward Edwardian SIT DOWN AND DRINK IT... FOR ABOUT TWELVE MINUTES!
ITS THE BEST TEA IN LONDON
@@Chickenman_or_batman RIght, yes I'd love a cup of tea. Thank you very much!
Best bit 😂😂😂
3 cups of steaming cold tea 😂
Gone but NEVER forgotten. Comic genius!
Richard Michael Mayall was the best British actor ever
Love Rik
I love the voice Rik Mayall puts on when he's shitting himself about something
I love how Eddie backs off quickly when Richie says "we make love!" 🤣🤣🤣
" YOU MUST !! YOU MUST !! YOU MUST DRINK OUR TEA !! " Only Rik could deliver in such a hilariously manic way !! l Much missed ....
I liked his story about trousers
Brilliant. I always think of it from the gas man’s perspective - just going about his daily business then he gets trapped in a flat with a pair of complete nut cases who make him drink cold tea, tell him they’re in love with him before beating him to within an inch of his life, electrocuting him, attempting to eat him and then trying to throw him out of a second story window. And instead of going to the police, he just turns up for work the next morning to read Mr Rottweiler’s meter😂
That will be the amnesia mate lol 😂
Favorite comedy duo Ever. Total Idiots. Even when you have a bad day you can always watch Aide and Rik and have a laugh.
HIS FACIAL EXPRESSIONS ARE PRICELESS
he waS a master
I agree..😁😁
dont leave him out in the cold dreamboat haha
I miss Rik SO much. Every time I think of him.. I feel sad. But then I come on here & laugh once more! It's bittersweet. Love you Rik.
You're not alone my friend
"Here's the little fella"....Eddie's face 😅🤣😂
Always left me in stitches. Richie was comedy gold. RIP Rik
Riks facial expressions always makes me smile.
Our English version of Robin Williams
Guys fucking world class m8 ❤❤❤one of best actors I've ever seen absolute comedy gold
Love the way the gas man flips from northern to Welsh and back! I am sure Are and Rik would have noticed but left it in! Absolutely brilliant.
You can't leave....Why? ....Because i Love you 🤣🤣🤣
even though i grew up with this show and i know every line off by heart, it still makes me laugh very much! This greatly contributed to a very happy childhood! :)
I used to stay until 2 am. Across the pond in Canada to watch this show as a kid. Made my childhood.
KM Hemmans The TH-camr
Big part of my teens in Australia 🙏 perfection
Same mate!! Brilliant
The best comedy duo to ever grace the tv screens of our great nation..
GAS MAN

There's the little fella, eddie checks his trouser department haha
My dad has had DVDs of The Young Ones since the 2000s but had never seen Bottom until I showed him. I've never seen him laugh as hard as he did in a long time. Rest in peace, Rik.
There are very few sitcoms I can watch repeatedly and feel genuinely happy. Bottom is a masterpiece.
R.i.p rik my man. You were one of the true legends of comedy and one of the best things to come out of Britain. I'm a massive bottom fan and have had plenty of times laughing myself to tears at you and Eddie. Tonight I'm having a drink in memory. I might even stick some bottom on, this ones for you too "GAS MAN GAS MAN GAS MAN GAS MAAAAAN"
grew up watching Rik Mayell gone but never forgotten we salute you Richie
We make love.
Not together, on our own 😂
I love eddie's face cringe at 1:08! I always piss myself laughing at that.
Leode Siefast Its great. Ade was funny
@Jeremy Brookes Not together! on our own
@Jeremy Brookes That's interesting, takes all sorts don't it
“Do you have someone who looks after you.” Funniest bit.
I first watched this with my dad, and he and I both cracked up laughing for about two straight minutes at that point. 🤣
Another funny bit when they were just about to throw him out was when the gas man uttered: Oh my god, its the looney, get me out of here!
With the way energy prices are going in the UK, we’re all going to be stealing gas off our neighbours 😆😭
Lol 😆
You don't want to look at that mate it's very boring, i had a look at it once and fell into a coma
Rik and Ade, quite rightly, get all the plaudits. But Mark Lambert is absolutely pitch perfect as the straight man. Complete and utter bewilderment.
Sad day for British comedy. A true legend. Heaven will certainly be a much funnier place. Sleep sweetly angel ♡ xxxx
I've often called this one of the best episodes of comedy television ever made
still watch these crazy geniuses today still makes me laugh so hard
"Don't leave him out in the cold dreamboat show him in". Lol
Absolute genius. R.I.P.
R.I.P Rik Mayall. He will be missed. :(

His facial expressions are so good. Loved bottom. Brilliant comedy actor
"...we have it...cold!"
Ozzie Z “Yes, that’s right, we have it COLD?”
3 mugs of steaming cold tea. 😳😂
@@Eleventhearlofmars Better drink it before it gets warm

Like Welsh Dr Who banal drivel...
It's the gas man! Hello does someone look after you? Classic show R.I.P Rick Mayal.
RIP Rik. This sucks balls :( The man was a legend
Bottom is still one of the funniest shows ever. R.I.P Rik, you were always great.
R.i.p. rik a true legend I remember getting excited to come home from school and watch bottom on VHS. A true legend has left us rip rik you will be missed.
Thanks for all the laughs, Richie.
We make love haha 😆..Love that line and Ritchie’s facial expression when he realizes what he said!!
It's incredible, I was watching these scenes from Bottom only recently and felt there were never enough comments or views for what is one of the best pieces of classic comedy ever made. As great as Rik was, his work isn't reflected in the figures on TH-cam and that does him a great deal of injustice.
I couldn't agree with you more!
Every time I see this actor in anything else, I'm shouting GASMAN! Utterly brilliant episode 😂😅
Still my favorite episode from my favorite tv show cant believe I watched this show so young and understood the humor so clearly, its so universal made for naughty kids and adults alike.

So funny 😂😂
RIP Rik, part of my childhood has died with you matey. You'll have god cracking up though :-)

Rik Mayall was very funny in The Young Ones as well

R.I.P. Rick!! Funniest man alive. Thanks for the laughs you genius you!
But hes not alive
Richy " Eddie you've killed him"
Eddie dropping frying pan "I never touched him"
Richy "no but the frying pan did and you were holding it"
Eddie "bollocks he was dead before he hit the floor"
Richy starting to panic "what are we going to do"
Eddie " about 25 years"
"IT'S THE GAS MAN...."
Nah, that Colonel 'Irish Tricks' Girdwood!
Funny how relevant this is today 🤣
Richie "what are we going to do?" Eddie "about 25 years I think" 🤣🤣🤣🤣 I loved meeting my mates on the way to school the day after bottom was on!

Another sad event in my life. I discovered Rik to late, he was excellent.
"Once upon a time there was a big forest and in the middle of the forest there lived some trousers... ...called Dave" 😂😂
My favourite Bottom scene of all time xx
They say laughter is the best medicine and after watching Eddy & Richie i feel excellent.
:( Genius . One of the few that made me laugh. Rest In Peace Rik .
IT'S THE GAS MAN!!!

The way eddie step aside & holds the door after richie said something to warm up. This is the most hilarious of bottom clips 😂
What a pairing you will be forever missed Rik Myall
R.I.P Such great actor May you bring fun and laughter to all in heaven x
I literally had this happen to me earlier today and it was the funniest thing ever to happen. My wife was shouting "Who is it?" I was shouting "Its the gasman the gasman the gasman." I was in tears when he left.
You missed the part where he interrupts the guy yelling "I am not the Aga Khan!" like that doorbell uses insane amounts of power 😂
RIP Rik Mayall...legend ! I watched Drop Dead Fred a long time ago, and now I am hooked on Bottom 👌💓 such quality comedy 😊
RIP Rik Mayall. Absolute legend!
Rik, you were the best. TEAM RIK FOR LIFE
2:30 "DO YOU WANNA CUP OF TEA?!" LOL
It is 2:31 get it right will you
@@izzymurati1987 What do you mean "get it right"? It is 2:30. Eddie asks the gasman "Do you want a cup of tea?"
Okay my mistake you are right I am wrong sorry about that
What a criminal shame Rik has never played the role of The Mad Hatter from Alice in Wonderland. :( What a shoe-in he would have been. What a shame...
1:55 Riks nervous chuxkle 😂😂✅👌
''How do you keep it so warm then?''
''We make love....''
Eddie's reaction!
"We make Iove!" That really gets me going! 🤣
Well don't leave him out in the cold dreamboat.
Lol i dont even know what gas is, what is gas? alright alright dont spoil it.
Another childhood idol gone. Condolences with his family & friends.
Uhm.. once.. upon a time.. there.. there was a.. big forest!.. and in the middle of the forest.. there lived [increasingly desperate].. some trousers!.. called.. DAVE
Ah yes heres the little fella lol
