@@Mors_Inimicis Maybe not. Then again, there was a nice moment when I saw him and his band The Bad Shepherds at a festival a few years ago. The tent was absolutely packed with fans of Ade (and of music), and a couple of songs into the set the cheers had got particularly loud. When it died down, Ade shyly stepped up to the mike and said "Aww, you lot are fucking lovely!"
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!
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
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
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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
Even back then! A hardline feminist BBC programmer called Jane Root killed off the 3rd series of Bottom back in the '90s.. according to Rick & Ade it was reportedly shaping up to be the best one yet..
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.
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 🥰🥰🥰
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!
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.
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.
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.
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.
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!
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
Not sure whether it’s me, but it felt like he is carrying a weight of sadness with him.
What a lovely man.
Ade is a proper national treasure - he and Rik were such a big part of my life growing up
Such a legend, love Ade Edmondson, and as for Rik Mayall - we all miss you. 😢
Shut up ya girl
Saw Rik at the Shakespeare theatre in Stratford 40+ years ago, will never forget it 😂
I hope Ade knows how much we love him. We love you Ade.
Shut up ya girl
He couldn’t care less .
I love his Bottom
The Young Ones is my Comedy Bible

Yeah - to look forward to Chemistry lessons🤣 It worked 😆@@KlimtEastwood
Never met him, but he feels like a friend as he’s been with me since 1982. Good bloke!
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!
Ade Edmondson on BBC Breakfast 25/09/23 1547pm 15.11.23 fav character name is eddie hitler. those two names comingling really suit one another.
What a lovely modest humble man Ade is.
“Exploding bricks! BRILLIANT!!!”
❤❤
His autobiography is fantastic. I laughed and cried.
Comes across as very humble, very down to earth guy. Makes me love him even more 😊
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
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
"It's the gas man!!!" Still makes me laugh, no matter how many times I watch it.
Don’t leave out in the cold, dreamboat, show him in
Do you have someone who looks after you? Could I see them because i need to read your meter!
Have a nice cup of steaming cold tea!! 😂
@@wellardme😂
Mr Who?

Currently indulging in my favourite hobby of bus surfing
Do you drink your tea cold too?
@@pumpakatten only on a Wednesday. I have it ice cold, after iv broken into my neighbors for his gas.
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.
Ade and Rik are comedy geniuses, let's not forget Nigel, he was prevalent in everything that eventually led up to Bottom!!
I bought the audio version read by Ade himself and it's amazingly good, well worth it!
Yes it is
I’m reading it and it is a hilarious read. Didn’t realise he does an audiobook, I missed out there 😂
always comes across a genuine guy and always as a cheeky wit about him
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.
Wonderful man on and off screen. A national treasure. Thank you for a huge part of my comedy youth in the 80s.
"There was just me, the carry cot and a little note that said, please look after my baby, I can't be bothered"
Don’t forget the old revolver too😂
2 legends thank god Ade’s still here ,I’ve pissed myself laughing at the pair of them all my life
Love you Ade.
Words cannot describe my love for this man
Ade and Rik will be forever comedic legends. Bottom will always be British humour.
Ade Edmondson on BBC Breakfast 25/09/23 1553pm 15.11.23 interviewed by penfold, can't be bad. the highlight of his career, i feel...
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 🙌
Legend !!
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.

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.
We love you Ade…. You’re an institution……you and Rik…(god rest his soul)…were absolutely BRILLIANT…thankyou both……
A brilliant man.
"we are the dangerous brother" simply ace. ❤❤❤
Grew up watching this legend with Rik, love them both and good to see him looking well !!
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 👍
Ade and Rick were so good at everything they did 😂👍👏👏👏👏

Love you Ade,from Belgium
Loved him in Bottom with Rik Mayall (RIP). True legends.
Lovely bloke. Naional treasure Ade. Rik sadly missed always 😢.
I get to see Ade on the 17th October, I really can't wait
They wouldn't allow the young ones or bottom anywhere near BBC schedules these days !!!
Ade is a great talent, and musician too.
Even back then! A hardline feminist BBC programmer called Jane Root killed off the 3rd series of Bottom back in the '90s.. according to Rick & Ade it was reportedly shaping up to be the best one yet..
@@jeffsimon9594 I never knew that, thanks for the heads up.
That pic of the two of them as students is pure class 🤣
A legend to many people 🤩🎭👏🏻🔥
Ade is an absolute national treasure.
The best ever greetings from 🇳🇱🇳🇱🇳🇱🇳🇱

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.

genuine and human
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 🥰🥰🥰
Listening to it on Audible at the moment, makes you laugh and cry, just brilliant.
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!
Love Ade. Him and Rik were perfect together.
Legend huge respect to him

Ade, I get you. Lots of love to you.
@JohnArchbell. I know how that feels mate, most of my friends are tight nits too.
Yeah, a lot of those teachers should be in prison for what they did.
I feel you i was caned and slippered at my first school un the 70s for non serious things ,Mr Schofield rot in hell you horrible man
excellent interview!!
The blokes body language on being compared to Penfold (of Dangermouse) shows how hard that hit. Spot on Ade!
Absolute massive part of my childhood!
Good interview, nice seeing interviewers not constantly interrupting.
Love ya me ol mate 👍
We love you ade thanks fun the laughs your a great bloke top banana 🍌 xx
My favourite series bottom got them all😊
Most understated national treasure
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.
Thanks you Ade Edmonson... thank you for the laughs and smiles.... thank you.
Such a treasure this man is, continues to make us laugh in such troubled times, we salute you!😂
Legend. Laughs my whole life.
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.
Miss these days. Thanks. Rip Rick 😔
Love Rik and Ade they made us laugh us so much.
we love you Eddie,
You just can't be Penfold without the late great Terry Scott's voice.
Looking forward to seeing Ade on stage in Birmingham next Tuesday night (October 17th). 👍
One of the coolest dudes to ever walk the earth, Him and Rik
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.
You kicked ass Ade RIP Rik Mayall .
Thanks for posting this. I was wondering what to spend my next Audible credit on. Now I know!
Ade ....legend...
Genius
I’ve talked to the caterer - that meal is costing us two hundred pounds - each!
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.
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 😢.
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
😂 hearing rick scream DIDN'T DIDN'T DIDN'T in the background
A national treasure!
Iv read it it’s brilliant I recommend it on audio books he reads it himself which makes it all the more amazing
Love him, but I miss Rik so much. He lives across the river from me in Barnes. I was very sad when he passed.
Ade Edmondson is one of my favourite comedians. A comic genius.
same here! he has a quiet wit that you wouldn't expect, given the characters he's played
Agree.a down to earth humble guy xx
Ludicrous claim
LEGEND ❤❤❤
WE LOVE YOU ADE X
He's a Certified Undisputed National Treasure.
Was at his show in Manchester the night before, explains why he raced off as soon as the show finished!
My first memory of ade was vyvian in the young ones , wrong spelling no doubt, with his yellow Ford Anglia!
