The "Young Ones" was probably the only TV comedy I ever really belly laughed at, but New Satesman came close, and Lord Flashheart in Blackadder had me wetting myself !

Oh dear . . . . . . not good   :-\

What did he die of ?

It just said that he'd died suddenly  :-\ :-\ :-\

I like what Ade Edmundson said  ;D

....... "There were times when Rik and I were writing together when we almost died laughing.

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."

"She's got a tongue like an electric eel and she likes the taste of a mans tonsils" has got to be one of the best lines ever  ;D ;D ;D

Absolute genius who will be sorely missed by my generation   :(
