Rik Mayall's death was the one celebrity death that really affected me. I grew up watching him in 'The young ones', 'Bottom' and 'Blackadder' and was a huge fan. The guy was a comic genius. RIP.

Lady Godiva rode naked through the streets of Coventry to protest taxes. The grateful public decided to express their gratitude by not looking at her, except for one guy. He gave his name to the expression 'Peeping Tom'. Cigarttes used to come with a free 'collectable' card featuring footballers, famous landmarks and national heroes like Lord Flashheart. Crufts was and is the National Dog Show!

Although Lady Godiva 'Naked Ride of Protest' was sometime in the mid 10 hundreds AD/Common Era, was either not long before (or after,) the next decade or two of Coffans Tre [settlemeNt/village of Coffa's Tree], likely an Angle warrior or chieftain, who's grave, saga-stoies & perhaps his murder &/or rulership, led towards the establishment of Coventry's name (in honour/remembrance?) in 1043 being what it is; before that ñame was bastardised through the then local non-Norse local language of (Ancient/Old) Welsh and through further subsequent bastardisations of Old Anglicised Norse, Normanic Norse Latin, Old English & Middle English etc.

This episode has entered into the psyche of the RAF; so many lines from this are used daily in RAF parlance. During Gulf War 1, flying into enemy airspace was known as 'going sausage-side', motivating guys ended with 'let's dooooooooo it!' and ground pounders like me revelled in the phrase 'I don't care how many times they go up tiddly-up, they're all GITS' - all the while doing everything possible to minimise risk to our aircrew....

A single series he and Ade did in the 80s. It's often overlooked and the cultural references would only be understood by British people at least 40 years old now lol but those characters are definitely worth a watch if you've not seen it 😊

I think it's set in the Somme if I remember. At one point in an episode Blackadder makes reference to the Somme public baths (no piddling in the shallow end) But then Melchett called Blackadder the Flanders pigeon murderer in the last episode so, erm, maybe it's not the Somme. Glad I cleared that up for everyone!

Lt George mentions the Great War of 1914 to 1917 in the final moments of the final episode. Obviously the Great War didn’t end in 1917. The guns stopped because it was time to attack. Anyway, the Somme was 1916. So the battles of 1917 is the period.

@@fezmancomments The cap badges on Blackadder, George and Baldrick aren't real regiments, so we can't just look that up. Although as George was at Cambridge, his local regiment would have been the Cambs, who have battle honours from the Ypres salient (Pilckem Ridge and Passchendaele) in '17. Other than Ypres, major offensives that year would include Arras and Cambrai, the latter being the first large scale deployment of tanks in combat.

Rik Mayall (Flash heart) and Ade Edmundson (Baron Von Richtofen) alongside Nigel Planer in "The Young Ones" changed the entire UK comedy scene in the 80's often giving out cartoon like violence usually to each other and had a twist of anarchism along with newer upcoming random bands setting up in their flat to play their new song in the middle of the episode. Violence included frying pans, building bricks, explosives, huge cakes, trains and everyones favourite a bin liner (Trash bag), a sneezing hippy, a variety of nails, a general idea of acupuncture and a 2lb builders hammer. :) Needless to say, our parents weren't to keen about it.

Rik Mayall (Lord Flasheart) was in a sitcom called Bottom, well worth a look at. It was created by Rik Mayall and Adrian Edmondson and focuses on Richard "Richie" Richard (Mayall) and Edward Elizabeth "Eddie" Hitler (Edmondson), two unemployed, crude, and perverted flatmates living in Hammersmith, London, who aspire to better themselves. Bottom became known for its chaotic, nihilistic humour and violent slapstick comedy

Lady Godiva rode naked through Coventry (a city in central England). There is a statue of her there. Also Lady Godiva is mentioned in the Queen song 'Don't Stop Me Now'. Although Lady Godiva was a real person (died around 1066) the first mention of her riding naked is 200 years later, so it might well just be a myth. Howver it's a well known story in England and we get the term 'peeping Tom' from it.

If you know the nursery rhyme “Ride a cock horse” that was probably about Lady Godiva. She had bells on her fingers and bells on her toes, but that was all she wore. In the period that this rhyme comes from cock horse probably meant a high spirited horse, other definitions such as a child’s hobby horse don’t seem to fit.

Mate, you have to watch the movie Monty python's LIFE OF BRIAN ...it's one of the most hilarious films of all time. John Celeste is awesome in it...but yes Faulty Towers never stops being funny too. British Comedy since beginning of radio and television right up to mid 90s some if the world's best. When something keeps making you laugh out loud even when you've already seen it hundred times before, you know it's GOLD. Having said that 4 years ago I stumbled across an old series from your country from decades ago...older than me even called HOGAN'S Heros That was also in the top 20 if comedies I've seen...so far ahead of its time.. outstanding... loved it!

And the word you were looking for earlier on was "boche". It was a derisive term used by the Allies during WW1 for "the Germans".

Guys to watch Lord Flasheart and Baron von Richtoven work together view The Young Ones, Filthy Rich and Catflap and Bottom...all seriously funny. Also Bottom Live has 3 DVD's, I got to see one of their live shows in person that wasn't recorded and was rather funny when they forgot their lines.

Did you recognise Ade Edmondson, Rik Mayals's long time comedy partner, as the Red Baron?

In the fifties in the play ground at school,' tea cards ' had superceded ' ciggie' cards,which could be swapped 5 tea cards for one. You stuck them both in albums and collected the full set. Today the cigarette card albums could be worth a lot.

Have you tried Filthy Rich and Carflap. A comedy from the early 80s with many of the same actors.

Anything Rik Mayall is comedy gold, we have only one comedy legend left... Ricky Gervais. Check out the outakes of Derek & Afterlife.

You should watch BOTTOM with the actors who play Flash heart and Baron Vin Richthoven in this episode, my all time favourite, 3 series from the 90s

You could do the other series of Blackadder or Back and Forth or Blackadder’s Christmas Carol in December.

If you like Lord Flashheart's character then he is also in the 1st episode of season 2 as well.
