They'll never make comedy like this again. More to the point, they'll never be allowed to make comedy like this again. Absolute classic, this is making me want to rewatch it all over again.

[@Ranaelibrik]

Worse yet, they might even remove these in time to come.

[@TastyCement]

If they made comedy like this again it'd be blatantly copying a formula from 30 years ago, that's probably why. Creativity is about trying new things, not endlessly repeating stuff. But if you want more of this, watch the morgue scene from Ash vs Evil Dead. Oh but, of course, you're not allowed to make comedy like that anymore (and etc. with the right-whinging).

22:35 Eddie getting beaned by the other burglar who stands behind him watching in amazement before Eddie finally falls over is one of the funniest things I have ever seen in my lifetime. It was hilarious when I first saw it when it aired and it's still as funny now.

[@Simon-xc5oy]

Where in HADES is the Burglar????? Eddie points up to the ceiling where he has mummified the interloper in sellotape and then webbed him to the ceiling with the same.... That is the one and only time in my life where I really did p*ss myself laughing. I could not breathe from the hysterics. Its typically Eddie / Ade Edmondson and classic Bottom. He did a similar trick with it years earlier in a Dangerous Brothers sketch on Friday Night Live. Rik and Ade are babysitting in a big house and the glass coffee table gets smashed in one of their violent fights. To cover it up, he uses sellotape corner to corner to make a cross where the glass was. And sticks an ashtray in the middle, so its suspended there as if it were on glass.....Just priceless. And he goes - "They'll Never Notice!!...."

[@hedgehog1965uk]

Using the chat up line "That's a smashing blouse you have on" is a good idea, cos if she laughs she must be a fan of Bottom and is likely to be a keeper.

Ade's best work is yet to come. He says this a few times in his 2023 autobiography "Berserker!", and then says "Don't laugh").

Can’t believe the BBC made programs like this. What happened?

[@doesntmatter1119]

Woke sh*t... that happened.. and everyone allowed it to happen

[@JackAcid]

Woke happened. Gutted. 😢

[@GafftheHorse]

​@@JackAcid Nothing about Bottom is anti-woke, woke just means being sensitive to issues and awake to injustice, nothing in that precludes a comedy about two desperate losers at the bottom of society.

[@Simon-xc5oy]

Woke did happen though. And its now so bad no one dare make anything or do anything or say anything in case someone gets offended. And few people do. Its the fear that they may upset someone, simply because all the common sense is gone. And diversity is more important and representation and LBGT etc. And they amount to a tiny fraction, but are now pushed as the majority and over represented. All this comes first, comedy, talent, writing second. The BBC and Uk used to have sitcoms like Porridge, Open All Hours, Last of the Summer Wine, The Good Life etc. And when alternative came along with Rik and Ade etc you got the other side with more extreme stuff like Young Ones, Bottom and cutting witty shows like Black Adder....Character pieces like Only Fools and Horses. From the late 90s on all of that sort of ouput has gone, with nothing to replace, nothing good anyway...And that is what happened to Uk comedy on the BBC....

FACT the Wimbledon common episode was only shown in 1995 because in 1992 a woman was murdered there just as the episode was to be shown

[@Simon-xc5oy]

Yes. I remember that happening. Rachel Nickell was killed by knife in front of her child. All over the news and the police had no clue so framed and trapped an innocent man for it instead. He was an odd case and a loser and a bit weird, but he did not kill her and it took years to prove his innocence and get compensation. The BBC did not broadcast the camping on Wimbledon common episode at the time as they thought it would not look good. But it was never mentioned. Some few years later when it was broadcast I thought it was one of the funniest ones they ever did, a true classic. I had no clue it was from an earlier run. The best episodes of Bottom are usually the ones when they are out of the flat doing something mad, such as minding the shop, and sunbathing on the roof, or going to the hotel, on the Ferris Wheel or this camping episode...When they are trying to hunt for food, and Rik ends up getting repeatedly blow darted by Eddie, or goes face first into the fire as the flames shoot up five or six feet in the air, before flailing his way into the pond to extinguish himself. And Eddie just goes deadpan - "You've put the fire out now....." Yes with his face! Hysterical.....
