Rik Mayall dead: Comedian and actor dies aged 56 - People - News - The Independent
This is a sad loss. Growing up the comedy of Rik Mayall meant the world to me and I assume many others too. It's a bit shocking tbh, as he wasn't that old.
Thank You, Rik Mayall, for having the uncanny ability to make even me laugh.

This scene used to tear me up in stitches as a kick. So funny.
Gutted the guy was an anarchic genius. He had the insufferable smug, self-righteous twatty cunt down to a fine art form. From Rik in the Young ones and Flasheart in Black Adder right up to Alan B'stard he nailed it, every time. Him and Ade were our generations Eric and Ernie. Comic strip would not have been the same without him, there would have been no dangerous brothers, no Bad News , no Bottom, no Young Ones. Does not bear thinking about. Thanks Rik have a lovely rest, you earned it.
Loved bottom.
So raw.
Rip
I loved this guy, he was brilliant in the young ones, bottom and Alan Bstard. Also he was extremely over the top in Black Adder. What a legend. RIP
Rip, there will never be anutter Rik.
Adrians comment there made me laugh and think typical British sense of humour in the face of death.
Reacting to the news of Mayall's death this evening, Edmondson said: "There were times when Rik and I were writing together when we almost died laughing.
"They were some of the most carefree stupid days I ever had, and I feel privileged to have shared them with him.
"And now he's died for real. Without me. Selfish b*****d."
;D;D;D
Yes what a great pity RIP Rik Mayll.
Only a best friend who was so close to him could get away with saying that. ;DQuote:
