Mrs SlowCum on the right. Always complaining about her pussy, especially if her pussy got wet and delayed her arrival at work. And they say TV nowadays is filthy.  Back in the 70's on BBC we had wet pussy jokes at tea time while Jimmy Saville was buggering old and young, dead and alive behind the scenes. :D

Shame about Rick. He was great in Blackadder and New Statesman. Don't think he ever fully recovered from his quad bike accident years ago.

Hulkotron,

I don't take kindly to disrespect. not on the internet, not in person, not in a grocery store parking lot, not in like at walmart, not in a restaurant, not at the beach, not at the dry cleaners... anywhere.

ppl talk about the 'pussyfication' of America, yet they run their mouths thinking they won't get slapped and get their arm broken in front of their friends.

spent many yrs in a place where if you talk slick and say something out of line to somebody, you know that when you say it, you better be ready for what happens. most ppl here in the 'real world', aren't ready for what could happen.. and run their mouths like the world is a make believe cartoon. despite wearing nice slacks, polished shoes and a nice shirt, the guy you steal that parking spot from at the grocery store and proceed to flip off, may have just gotten out of prison and will have no problem identifying they bitch in you and proceed to teach you a lesson by taking you down to the ground and kicking out your teeth before you even know what happened.

the guy who's willing to go the furthest, wins. if you're not willing to go all the way, it's best you keep your mouth shut and move on, and make it to the next day.

shocked when i heard. loved The young ones, bottom & the comic strip presents. the young ones was the best for me though. always hoped they'd do a one-off special showing the boys all middle aged and still fucked up as ever. ;D

absolutely gutted.

RIP Rik :'(

thanks for the many, many laughs

Rik Mayall, the British comedian, writer and actor best known as Rick, the “pompous would-be anarchist” in the offbeat 1980′s sitcom The Young Ones, died at his home in London at the age of 56. He is survived by his wife and three children.

Rest in peace Rik. Your comic genius will be missed.

I grew up watching Bottom. Probably my favourite TV show as a kid.

The Young Ones and The New Statesman were also great. Rik was also hilarious in Blackadder.

PIP. A comedic legend! :'(

The best of all was the Comic strip presents : Bad News
Documentary about a Heavy Metal Band. Pure piss take of pretentious bands , like a better Spinal Tap.
Here they are being interviewed on British TV the week before the documentary was shown.

I never understood why rik wasn't a bigger star in the US. The young ones was fucking legendary. Bottom was great. The whole poet rik charature  was funny as shit.
