Use to love the old Bottom shows! His live shows were not bad either! Such a shame.....RIP

First celebrity death that has actually knocked me a bit for six. Genuinely loved this guy, completely shaped how I view comedy. RIP Rik.

Legend. RIP.

Genuinely saddened to hear, one of my favourite comedians/comedy actors, along with Adrian Edmonson.

I watch Bottom quite often, always good for a laugh, will not be the same.

Don't let word get out, or 500 girls might kill themselves.

He was awesome in the new statesman too

 

[Sliver]

Sad, sad news. Also a big shock, 56 is far too young. One of my favourite comic actors.

[TheMightyTen]

Sad, sad, sad

A real great and such an important person to those of us grew up through the early eighties. Loved pretty much everything he did and his body chemistry with Ade Edmondson was a dream to behold live.

R.I.P. Rik
