Well, I can't argue with the pic posting function of the board. Maybe it's too big?

Awful character, IMO.

Mr. Bean almost destroyed all the love i had for Black Adder.

I have to admit I cant stand Mr Bean either but I love most else Atkinson's done over the years.

― Chreiysy (trayce), Friday, 6 August 2004 02:08 (twenty-one years ago)

Okay I watched that episode, officially known as "Beer" apparently. It was pretty great, my favorite line was something like
"It's particularly ironic my lord because my thingy looks like a turnip. I hide in the vegetable racks and scare the children."
I REALLY DID STAY AWAY FROM THIS THREAD COMPLETELY SINCE MY LAST POST, oh well.
Thanks for not telling me it was Rowan Atkinson beforehand or I might've gotten the wrong idea. This is by far the best thing I've seen him in.

― AaronHz (AaronHz), Friday, 6 August 2004 02:56 (twenty-one years ago)

Ah yes Baldrick and his turnips.

― Chreiysy (trayce), Friday, 6 August 2004 02:59 (twenty-one years ago)

Yes! Now you will be hooked.

― Al'manach Oseni (Autumn Almanac), Friday, 6 August 2004 03:04 (twenty-one years ago)

The Young Ones is on now, how do you guys rate that one?

― AaronHz (AaronHz), Friday, 6 August 2004 03:06 (twenty-one years ago)

Percy: Hah hah! Tush, My Lord.

Edmund: ...and don't say `tush', either! It's only a short step from `tush'to `hey nonny nonny'; and then, I'm afraid, I'll shall have to call the police.

― Chreiysy (trayce), Friday, 6 August 2004 03:06 (twenty-one years ago)

I can recite whole fuckin' great chunks of the Young Ones from memory. I watched it since it was on TV in the 80s, taped it then, and watched it all too much I think.

― Chreiysy (trayce), Friday, 6 August 2004 03:06 (twenty-one years ago)

Young Ones is very '80s/dated but incredibly excellent. Which episode?

― Al'manach Oseni (Autumn Almanac), Friday, 6 August 2004 03:07 (twenty-one years ago)

This is "Bomb", where there's an atom bomb in the kitchen. That anarchist guy is him from Drop Dead Fred innit?

― AaronHz (AaronHz), Friday, 6 August 2004 03:08 (twenty-one years ago)

Percy: I must say, Edmund, it was jolly nice of you to ask me to share your breakfast before the rigours of the day begin.

Edmund: Well, it is said, Percy, that civilised man seeks out good and intelligent company, so that, through learned discourse, he may rise above the savage and closer to God.

Percy: Yes, I've heard that.

Edmund: Personally, however, I like to start the day with a total dickhead to remind me I'm best.

― Chreiysy (trayce), Friday, 6 August 2004 03:09 (twenty-one years ago)

Hahah Bomb is ace.

Bahahahahaha. Never did I think he'd be described as such by anyone on the planet. Yes, that's him.

Wow what sort of amazingly pants droppingly good cable channel is this? ITS NOT FAIR! You'll be telling me they're showing the Goodies next. And then I shall have to kill you.

― Chreiysy (trayce), Friday, 6 August 2004 03:14 (twenty-one years ago)

I MISS PYTHON.

Honestly, when the fuck will the BBC get its arse into gear and release Flying Circus on DVD. THE WHOLE THING, not some crappy bloody Best Of shit or an inferior bloody box set with half the picture lost in conversion.

― Al'manach Oseni (Autumn Almanac), Friday, 6 August 2004 03:15 (twenty-one years ago)

Did you end up working out if the box set really is a shit transfer? I didnt think it was, I mean for $350 it'd want to be good quality, but then again I'm used to my FOX DVDs which now I think about it are pretty poor quality.

― Chreiysy (trayce), Friday, 6 August 2004 03:17 (twenty-one years ago)

Fuck I mean FOX videos, argh sorry.

― Chreiysy (trayce), Friday, 6 August 2004 03:17 (twenty-one years ago)

Did you end up working out if the box set really is a shit transfer?

It's converted to NTSC, so yes.

― Al'manach Oseni (Autumn Almanac), Friday, 6 August 2004 03:19 (twenty-one years ago)

I wouldnt mind that... if I could buy a secondhand copy for a lot less, maybe.

― Chreiysy (trayce), Friday, 6 August 2004 03:20 (twenty-one years ago)

You'll be telling me they're showing the Goodies next.

Nah, next is The Office, followed by Trailer Park Boys and Little Britain. You're telling me BBC America is actually better than the real BBC channels? Wow.

― AaronHz (AaronHz), Friday, 6 August 2004 03:23 (twenty-one years ago)

We don't get BBC channels in Australia, sadly. We get shit like Comedy Inc and McLeod's Daughters.

That anarchist guy is him from Drop Dead Fred innit?
Bahahahahaha. Never did I think he'd be described as such by anyone on the planet. Yes, that's him.

I'm trying to work out what made you laugh, "that anarchist guy" or "him from Drop Dead Fred" because his character seemed a pretty pansy anarchist AND DDF was a crap movie.

― AaronHz (AaronHz), Friday, 6 August 2004 03:29 (twenty-one years ago)

Its more the fact Rik Mayall, well when we was kids anyway, was always most known for his Rik character from the Young Ones (aka "that anarchist guy") and Drop Dead Fred was way later and stuff.

― Chreiysy (trayce), Friday, 6 August 2004 03:32 (twenty-one years ago)

Oh wait, a friend of mine used to talk about the Young Ones when I mentioned Drop Dead Fred to him, I just remembered.

― AaronHz (AaronHz), Friday, 6 August 2004 03:34 (twenty-one years ago)

Here's a list of what Rik Mayall's done, in rough order of importance:

1. The Young Ones
2. Bottom
3. The Comic Strip Presents
4. Dangerous Brothers
5. The New Statesman
6. Blackadder
7. Filthy Rich & Catflap

now here's a list of things I've seen Rik Mayall in in the rough (erm, EXACT) order I've seen them
1. Drop Dead Fred
2. The Young Ones

now you have a new "silly ignorant American" story to tell all your friends!

which Blackadder was he in?

― AaronHz (AaronHz), Friday, 6 August 2004 03:43 (twenty-one years ago)

He was in umm... two eps? (correct me here folx) He was Captain Flashheart in S3 and 4, if I recall rightly.

― Chreiysy (trayce), Friday, 6 August 2004 03:46 (twenty-one years ago)

now you have a new "silly ignorant American" story to tell

I don't think much more is expected of you, even as a non-American. You're still good poo.

― Harold Media (kenan), Friday, 6 August 2004 03:46 (twenty-one years ago)

But even better than that was Ade Edmonson's Red Baron or whatever he was called, the german general, that character was a pisser.

― Chreiysy (trayce), Friday, 6 August 2004 03:47 (twenty-one years ago)

xpost yeah hell, I love edumacating people with good comedies and such.

― Chreiysy (trayce), Friday, 6 August 2004 03:47 (twenty-one years ago)

Phoebe Cates was in DDF so it's not a total waste of film, I suppose. The only kinda funny part I remember is when he pops up behind her and spooks her and says, "Shit Yerself?"

― AaronHz (AaronHz), Friday, 6 August 2004 03:55 (twenty-one years ago)
