Lord Flashheart Legendary character only Mayall could have pulled off.


And the movie I can't think of right now? About a hotel?


Feeeb.

[The Cryptkeeper]

I love his one and only ever tweet

"Opening my very own Twitter to stop another bastard from doing it. So **** off & don't expect to hear from me any time soon. Love Rik x"

A comic genius.

Vale.

Neil! The bathroom's free, unlike the country under the Thatcherite junta.

RIP Prik.

Rik - The People's Poet.

His Poems

Oh Cliff,
Sometimes it must be difficult not to feel as if,
You really are a Cliff,
When fascists keep trying to push you over it,
Are they the lemmings'
Or are you Cliff....
Or are you Cliff

What are you doing Neil,
To make a meal (Neil)
From totalitarian vegetables,
How much does it cost...Neil

House, house, house
Oh, you are made of stone,
But you are not a lone-
-ly house

Pollution
All around
Somtimes up
And sometimes down
But always around
Pollution, are you coming to my town,
Or am I coming to yours,
Were on different buses, pollution
But we're both using petrol...................................... bombs


Marrow
Meringue
Boomerang
Long, blue boomerang....


What do you think you're doing, pig,
Do you really give a fig, pig
And what's your favourite sort of gig, pig
Barry Manilow
Or the black and white minstrel show

C'ya Rik. I would have had to come up with some shitty username like JackAttack! or Amstaff_ if it weren't for you

A bit rough coming from someone who doesn't even know what it means.

I love the comment by his long time friend and comedic partner, Adrian Edmonson.

“There were times when Rik and I were writing together when we almost died laughing,” he said.
“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 bastard.”

 

[allrighty]

Absolute legend, will be missed and remembered well.

Bought the Comic Strip Box Set a couple of years ago - priceless (oh it was about $45 actually) - to add to Young Ones, DD Fred and Bottom. A Brilliant comedian.

 

[PowerForGood]

Who????

Rik.... with a silent P!

 

[allrighty]

Rik.... with a silent P!

Reminds me of that other great repartee:

Vyvyan (about to nail hammer into Neil's head): Now, you might feel a bit of prick.
Neil: So what's new?

 

[Paul Kersey]

Trick or treat, all cash no sweets.

 

[chelseacarlton]

Comedic Royalty.
Inspired a couple of generations of comedians worldwide I'd imagine!.

Inspired me to say foolish and outlandish statements at the completely wrong time!

Ps Hey Rick look out Clllllliiiiiiifffffffffffff.....

 

[Haduken]

Brilliant

 

[Deaneus!]

True genius.

I love the house party, when he finds his present and thinks it's a mouse...

 

[Paul Kersey]

When questioned why he is loitering at the sex shop - 'it's a secret'.

 

[PowerForGood]

I'm shouting dinner tonight folks.... risotto ok?

 

[oogac]

The Youngones on University challenge was a cracker.

The Young Ones was nothing but pure comic genius. RIP Prick

 

[MAXIMUM GRUNDAGE]

Also filmed scenes for Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, but they were cut.
