Rik Mayall’s sudden passing on June 9, 2014, marked the loss of a comedic icon whose unique style blended energetic physicality with surreal humor and sharp satire over four decades. His memorable roles ranged from the quirky Kevin Turvey to the iconic 'People's Poet' Rik in The Young Ones, the scheming MP Alan B'Stard in The New Statesman, and the hapless Richie in Bottom. This tribute, narrated by Simon Callow, honors Mayall’s legacy in British comedy through rare footage and heartfelt reflections from admirers and collaborators, including Michael Palin, Simon Pegg, and Lenny Henry.
