Yep, Drop Dead Fred was one of favourite films growing up.

I presume died of being hit over the head with a frying pan?

Nearly choked on me tea there.

Thanks spyman for cheering me up. I cannot believe that Rik Mayall is dead.

I'm gutted. Bottom is / was one of my favourite TV programmes.

One of the Finest comedians and comedy actors this country has ever produced, probably the best of his generation which is quite a statement to make when we see who he came through with...Rowan Atkinson, Hugh Laurie, Stephen Fry, Lenny Henry, French and Saunders, Adrian Edmondson, a group of comedians who took comedy to a new level in the 80's and 90's

laughed at Ade Edmondsons tribute to him

"Now he has died for real, without me, selfish b******"

No problem - I was gutted too. I love that bit in DDF where his face gets crushed in the fridge door. I got in to Bottom before the Young Ones, but loved both.

Brilliant slapstick comedian, I actually thought he was older than 56.

You could have phrased some of the third sentence a bit better! #yewtree

Read his autobiography it's very funny. Better than hitler bigger than Jesus.

The bit in it when he called slade s*** in Wolverhampton made me cry laughing.

Easily one of the best comedians I have ever had the pleasure of watching, and I only wish I was able to see him perform live with Ade Edmondson when they took Bottom on tour.

The earlier tours in particular are some of the funniest things I have ever seen, and what makes them more amazing is the fact that they were even able to "practise" their cock ups and incorporate them into the act, just so they could entertain the fans.
