Quintus 5,391 Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-27770266Pretty gutted by this sad news, Mayall was a bit of a comedy legend here for his anarchic and crazy characters. He never seemed to fully recover from his quad bike accident years ago.http://youtu.be/aKfbSHW9uGARIP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barnald 349 Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 I'm heartbroken by this news. A true comic genius. Don't think I've ever laughed at anything more than Bottom.RIP Rik. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt C 423 Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 Drop Dead Fred was terrible, but he elevated it to watchable status. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sweeping Strings 1,308 Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 A very big shock, and deeply saddening news ... he was somewhat of a comedy hero in my teens and twenties. The Young Ones, The New Statesman, the Blackadder appearances and Bottom - I loved them all.RIP Rik, thanks for all the laughs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Once 505 Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 Wow, that's a big shot. May he rest in peace.Now they've gotta show us his Peeves scene from Philosopher's Stone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glóin the Dark 1,068 Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 "So sorry to hear about Rim Mayall" - status update of a friend of mine just now. I'm sure the star of Bottom would have enjoyed the unseemly autocorrect fail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Balahkay 626 Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 Drop Dead Fred was a childhood favorite of mine. Couldn't get enough of that film or Rik as Fred. Thanks for the laughs. RIP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
