"Well, it's the season of goodwill and peace on Earth, so I thought I'd chop both its feet off, rip out its innards, strip it, shove an onion up its arse and bung it in a very hot place for four hours until its completely burnt."
I never get upset over famous deaths, usually, but I've been a fan of Rik Mayall's comedy for years. The Young Ones remains, to this day, one of the best and most influential comedy series the UK has produced, and Bottom was disgusting, rancid comedy genius. The guy died of currently unknown causes this morning at the relatively young age of 56. He was just about making a "comeback", and now he's dead.
Think I'll go watch Drop Dead Fred tonight.
