Absolutely gutted - Anybody growing up as a child in the 80's will surely recall the impact that the bloke had on British culture.

An absolute force of nature, I think if anybody wants the definitive example of his talents, they just need to watch his reading of 'George's Marvellous Medicine' on Jackanory - It is pure comedy genius which, whether you are 7 or 77, will make you cry with laughter.

Sadly he was never the same after his accident, but a true comic genius of his time.


RIP the silent P

The impact of Mayall and co on British popular culture was immense. The Young Ones took sitcoms from terry and June style middle class, middle aged unfunny cr*p and made it cutting edge.

Having said that, The Young Ones is odd. I rewatched some episodes 10 years ago and felt they'd aged terribly, but saw the series again a year or so ago and loved it ll over again.
