Such a legend, love Ade Edmondson, and as for Rik Mayall - we all miss you. 😢

Ade is a proper national treasure - he and Rik were such a big part of my life growing up

I hope Ade knows how much we love him. We love you Ade.

Not sure whether it’s me, but it felt like he is carrying a weight of sadness with him. What a lovely man.

I love this man. In the way of completely understanding what it’s like to lose half of your life when your best mate dies. I hope he knows how much joy he brings the world by simply showing his face in public. He’s a legend. They both are. Much love to Ade Edmondson and Rik Mayall. And to everyone of yOu who reads this 🙏🙌☀️

Our chemistry teacher would put "the young ones" on tape and if we did well in class, he would wheel the video recorder and TV into class and he would play it for us ..... everyone just stopped burning the person beside them with a bunsen burner and focussed on the TV 😆! Good times - He was was my best teacher - top guy !

He's been the source of so many laughs through my life. I can't remember a time without him or Rick making me giggle like a fool. Long may he continue!

Never met him, but he feels like a friend as he’s been with me since 1982. Good bloke!

"It's the gas man!!!" Still makes me laugh, no matter how many times I watch it.

Comes across as very humble, very down to earth guy. Makes me love him even more 😊

The saddest thing was that fact about all great things and lives that end abruptly...we ll never know if the best was yet to come. But we cherish what we have. Long may Rik and Ade's work shine.

His autobiography is fantastic. I laughed and cried.

What a lovely modest humble man Ade is.

The comedic alchemy which happened when Ade and Rik collided made life magical in the last century, regardless of how self deprecating Ade speaks of himself

I bought the audio version read by Ade himself and it's amazingly good, well worth it!

I’ll always remember seeing Ade and Rik live in Brighton and someone shouted from the audience “have a wank” (from bottom) and they stopped the show and laughed and the whole audience laughed with them. A memorable experience. RIP RIK Mayall.

my absolute all time hero. That level of comedy Rik and ade done was just in a different league. Absolutely hilarious and still to date nothing quite like it

“Exploding bricks! BRILLIANT!!!” ❤❤

Currently indulging in my favourite hobby of bus surfing

Ade and Rik are comedy geniuses, let's not forget Nigel, he was prevalent in everything that eventually led up to Bottom!!

Would love to see Ade play Vivian as a consultant in today's NHS or even private (yeah, he'd probably be private), would be comedy gold I have no doubt.

always comes across a genuine guy and always as a cheeky wit about him

"There was just me, the carry cot and a little note that said, please look after my baby, I can't be bothered"

Wonderful man on and off screen. A national treasure. Thank you for a huge part of my comedy youth in the 80s.

I was repairing a coffee machine at a Shell garage on the A1 some years ago and Ade came in, instantly recognisable. I said hello as we both headed into the toilets, I thought, oh, this is a bit awkward, I don't want him to think I'm just being weird, I did actually need a jimmy riddle so opted for the cubicle. He did say hello back and smiled as he headed back out to his vehicle. Was a pleasant encounter. Love him in Bottom with Rik ( RIP, greatly missed ) and he's played a serious role in a Police drama, forget which one it was though.

Ade and Rik will be forever comedic legends. Bottom will always be British humour.

What a lovely man ade is . He with rik were the modern laurel and Hardy. They had brilliant timing . I remember ade saying you barstard to rip when he passed . Their bottom series was just amazing stuff. Always love watching my box collection..and yes now he said it .he does look like penfold lol

Grew up watching this legend with Rik, love them both and good to see him looking well !!

When I first saw an episode of “Bottom” as a young lad, I couldn’t believe something some amazing, violent and purile could be Shown on TV 🙌

Seen them both live on stage, memories to keep a life time ❤ I’m 66 and don’t mind saying, I cried when news of RM’s death came through. Also seen RM live on stage, in the new statesman.

2 legends thank god Ade’s still here ,I’ve pissed myself laughing at the pair of them all my life

Ade is a national treasure. With Rik sadly missed 😢

Great bloke , went to see Ade and his band a few years ago …..best night ever 👍

We love you Ade…. You’re an institution……you and Rik…(god rest his soul)…were absolutely BRILLIANT…thankyou both……

Ade and Rick were so good at everything they did 😂👍👏👏👏👏

They wouldn't allow the young ones or bottom anywhere near BBC schedules these days !!! Ade is a great talent, and musician too.

"we are the dangerous brother" simply ace. ❤❤❤

Words cannot describe my love for this man

Loved him in Bottom with Rik Mayall (RIP). True legends.

we the misses and I have bottoms play for the last 30 min of the day every day 🙂 "sad eh" love ya mate and miss Rik.

Lovely bloke. Naional treasure Ade. Rik sadly missed always 😢.

got to love him, Rik and Ade were pure magic together. Bottom still makes me ill with laughter, the 1st 3 live shows were the best, Loved the 1st two more though. Such a shame we lost Rik, i do miss him deeply, i often wondered if they would have done another live tour again, even now if Rik was still here.

Listening to it on Audible at the moment, makes you laugh and cry, just brilliant.

Saw ade and rik at Ipswich bottom live amazing we love the pair of them!!!!❤

in the early 90s a school friend of me and my kid bro visited us in the autumn, asked about if we knew The Young Ones, since we only knew them from that series, we nodded and told we loved the ending a lot!he then went home 2 hallways down the block, came back with 2 vhs tapes with Bottom!we made coffee and had a great laugh watching those!

One of britains beloved double acts ade and rik, I loved vyvyan

Just binged some of the live shows that they done together… such a shame we lost both of them at the same time .. i grew up watching bottom and have now got my kids quoting it to me 🥰🥰🥰

Rik and Ade true comedy legends hilarious

I can resonate with the school beatings. I went to boarding school where punishments ranged from a slipper struck onto a bare arse or 12 of the cane and injuries would draw blood that would seep into your pants afterwards. Safe to say I don’t hold many amazing memories of school. I got through it by staying close to a tight knit group of friends. Ade, I get you. Lots of love to you.

I get to see Ade on the 17th October, I really can't wait

Legend !!

That pic of the two of them as students is pure class 🤣

The blokes body language on being compared to Penfold (of Dangermouse) shows how hard that hit. Spot on Ade!

Thanks for posting this. I was wondering what to spend my next Audible credit on. Now I know!

Love you Ade.

I am an Aussie and I can hear the accent Rik Mayall used when he spoke as his character in the The Young Ones when these presenters speak.

Love Ade. Him and Rik were perfect together.

A brilliant man.

excellent interview!!

My favourite series bottom got them all😊

Love you Ade,from Belgium

A legend to many people 🤩🎭👏🏻🔥

Such a treasure this man is, continues to make us laugh in such troubled times, we salute you!😂

Absolute massive part of my childhood!

His memoir is brilliant. I just finished it on Audible. I've always loved Rik & Ade but didn't know a lot of Ade's background orvwhat he was like off-screen. Delighted to discover he's a wonderful man as well qs a comedy great.

The best ever greetings from 🇳🇱🇳🇱🇳🇱🇳🇱

Ade is an absolute national treasure.

Good interview, nice seeing interviewers not constantly interrupting.

Thanks you Ade Edmonson... thank you for the laughs and smiles.... thank you.

We love you ade thanks fun the laughs your a great bloke top banana 🍌 xx

My first memory of ade was vyvian in the young ones , wrong spelling no doubt, with his yellow Ford Anglia!

Ade is bang on, Arthur Lowe was incredibly funny with a script, skilled at timing and generally humorous acting. But I saw him at a Water Rats event. He was the speaker for the evening. No character at all I was shocked, droll dry humour not an act. Stunned. I think it was also televised.

Rik and Ade remind me of my husband and his best friend. I think if one died the other would never be the same again. Much love to Ade. I loved and still love everything he, and Rik have done.

Love Rik and Ade they made us laugh us so much.

Looking forward to seeing Ade on stage in Birmingham next Tuesday night (October 17th). 👍

Legend huge respect to him

Miss these days. Thanks. Rip Rick 😔

Ade Edmondson is one of my favourite comedians. A comic genius.

😂 hearing rick scream DIDN'T DIDN'T DIDN'T in the background

I'm a twat.....10 times

genuine and human

I used to watch Bottom with an ex of mine lol proper hilarious ade Edmondson and his amazing Friends, Rik, Alexei x the young ones is hilarious! When they fight with Madness, when they have bands in their living room, demolishing the house as Vivian crashes through the walls etc, and Sir Ben Elton as Barry in 'Nozin' around' so hilarious 😂

Iv read it it’s brilliant I recommend it on audio books he reads it himself which makes it all the more amazing

LEGEND ❤❤❤ WE LOVE YOU ADE X

Love him, but I miss Rik so much. He lives across the river from me in Barnes. I was very sad when he passed.

If anyone hasn't seen the comic strip titled bad news involving rik and ade i urge you to watch it. About a rock band, blows my mind. They made an album and toured and played donington monsters of rock it is superb!

Brilliant love Ade & miss Rick 😢.

One of the coolest dudes to ever walk the earth, Him and Rik

Man watching this made me happy. 😄

Most understated national treasure

“I could play stairway to heaven when i was 12. Jimmy Page didn't actually write it until he was 22. i think that says quite a lot.” Vim Fuego and definitely not Alan 🤣. Also loved Ade in Britain. You don’t really see that level of patriotism now. RIP Rik and Robbie for those who know the early Comic Strip Presents.

Ade ....legend...

You kicked ass Ade RIP Rik Mayall .

I’ve talked to the caterer - that meal is costing us two hundred pounds - each!

You just can't be Penfold without the late great Terry Scott's voice.

we love you Eddie,

im now 43 , i grew up in the 90's watching rik and ede on bottom ,still watch it now ,their comedy is a big part of my sense of humour ,when rik died it was like i had lost a family member

Legend. Laughs my whole life.

Love ya me ol mate 👍

Was at his show in Manchester the night before, explains why he raced off as soon as the show finished!
