Adrian Edmondson remembers the late Rik Mayall in new documentary on Bottom which will feature unseen footage of the comedy duo
A new documentary will explore why the friendship between Adrian Edmondson and Rik Mayall proved a hit with audiences in the 90s comedy Bottom.
Adrian, 67, will revisit the show in comedy channel Gold's Bottom: Exposed, which features footage that has never been broadcast, stories from filming and a look at the relationship between the two lead actors. The Gold special will be narrated by presenter, comedian and actor Stephen Fry, who Rik worked with in Blackadder when he played Lord Flashheart and The New Statesman as Alan B'Stard MP. They had briefly appeared together a year earlier on Let's Dance For Comic Relief, when Rik hit him over the head with a frying pan during a routine, echoing the outrageous behaviour of their characters.
