Still don't want to believe it, put on Bottom this morning but had to turn it off after a few minutes. Yeah it still doesn't feel real. I keep imagining Eddie by himself all alone in the flat. Yeah same. The times where he nearly dies, gets told he's got 3 days to live, gets a visit from death all seem a bit poignant atm, I'm sure it'll blow over in time though and i'll appreciate it much more than I ever did. Going to put "madam swish 3:30" in my partner's birthday card for Saturday, will be funny as seeing her reaction.

Don't stick up for your brother, we all know he's been sending the same card to himself for the past 7 years

HOW DO YOU KNOW THESE THINGS?!"

For anyone that wants to know, BBC are airing an episode of Bottom tonight at 10:30 on BBC Two, its my favorite Bottom episode too so I might watch it before the Argentina game.

They had a good comedy connections of the Young Ones on after the Bottom episode too. I think I preferred Young Ones to Bottom. Everything Rik said in the interview just made me love him more. There was a good article too on the BBC website about Rik and his effect on politics. Worth a read for anyone interested. He defiantly made a big change, not just in comedy but in the UK as a whole. In the interview, they said how the Young Ones were treated like rock stars.

Anyone catch Crackanory on Dave the other night? Was apparently Rik's last appearance on UK TV. Didn't particularly care about the programme itself but I noticed Rik never lost it with his humour and mannerisms.
