I met Rik in a Pret a Manger on Oxford St London in 2011. I noticed him stood behind me in the queue. As a kid I’d watched The Young Ones repeatedly along with Mr Jolly, 5 Go Mad, Bad News and so on. He was my comic hero. I knew he probably didn’t want a conversation with a strange 30 y/o man so I simply said “Hello Rik I’m not going to hassle or bore you but I’d just like to say it’s an honor to meet you in person and from the bottom of heart, thank you.” He looked me in the eye, smiled, clicked his heels together like a Nazi and performed a very theatrical bow. He didn’t say a word. I paid for my sandwich and left. RIP Rik, you are missed.

The mixture of Mayall overperforming and Atkinson underperforming is such a perfect combination

It shows a matter of absolute self confidence that Rowan can give his co actors the ability to show their stuff. Flash heart and Sir Percy were two of my favorites and Lord Melchit well all of them really including the German Officer.

[@lordjimbo2]

That first scene is amazing because Blackadder actually outwits him and Flash knows it, and ups the ante by just knocking him cold. It's completely in character for both men and a testament to the writers and actors. Brilliantly done.

Blackadder was a special comedy. One of those rare programmes that your parents would inexplicably let you stay up late to watch. The next day everyone in school would be talking about what happened and endlessly quoting the more famous funny lines. And then there’s those really special couple of episodes, where the hero of ‘The Young Ones’ returned to our lives again briefly and we all got to piss our pants once again at his madcap antics.
