It's all over the news. As a huge fan of Bottom, I'm devastated. I was just listening to his ridiculous World Cup song yesterday  |

Was watching the first Bottom live show with my partner on Saturday, she's as big a fan as me. He was a genuine childhood hero of mine. Gutted.

Awful news. He is such a legend. Everything he done he was great in: Bottom, New Statesman, Blackadder, the list is almost endless. Had so much still to give. RIP.

Really sad news. Loved him in The Young Ones and the episode in Blackadder where he appears is brilliant.

Rik Mayall was an absolute hero of mine and this still hasn't really sunk in. The news is just going straight through me. In our house it is a Christmas tradition to watch the Christmas episode of Bottom and to have my Lego Bottom nativity on display  RIP. |

Shocking and saddening news, Rik was one of my favorite comedians growing up, going to miss him. Really wish him and Ade did that new Bottom series that was talked about a few years back. R.I.P Richard "Richie" Richard |

How can Rik be dead when we still have his poems?
Loved the Young Ones and his appearances in Blackadder, really sad news.

btw there's currently a campaign to get "Noble England", the World Cup song Rik released in 2010, to No.1 in the charts. I've already bought it from the iTunes store.
At 79p, you can't go wrong as one last tribute to a comedy legend.
