Re: Rik Mayal's dead
Oh that is sad, he had that terrible accident and managed to recover from it. I wonder what it was that he died from, he had a head injury and sometimes it can leave weaknesses and results in strokes later on.
RIP, you made people laugh, one of the best gifts you can give.

I liked him as Gideon Pryke in Jonathan Creek, especially in Black Canary.

http://www.independent.co.uk/news/people/rik-mayall-was-happily-chatting-to-peter-richardsons-son-half-an-hour-before-he-died-9520346.htmlRik Mayall was “happily chatting” to the son of British director Peter Richardson only half an hour before he died.
The comedy actor died on 9 June, aged 56.
“He was happily chatting away [to my son] and then we still don’t know quite what happened but it was a seizure of some sort,” said Richardson on BBC Radio 4's Today programme.
In 1998, Mayall was left in a coma for several days after a serious quad bike accident. He recovered, but was left with epilepsy – for which he took daily medication.
It certainly sounds as though a seizure is the most likely cause, very sad

ONE OF THE BEST EPISODES EVER!
ICK: Does seem strange that Mike should call a house meeting in here. I mean, I've never been in here before.
NEIL: that's because this is where we keep the cleaning stuff, Rick.
RICK: No, it's not, Neil! It's because we only moved in here yesterday.
NEIL: Actually, I'm surprised that anyone except me knows this place even exists. Cause to you lot, I have as much importance as a, as a, uh....
RICK: Hippie.
NEIL: ...hippie. It happens to be me that does all the cleaning around here.
RICK: Moan moan moan. Boring. Just because you do a little bit of housework.
NEIL: What? A little bit?! All right. [knocks on the wall] House meeting, OK?
RICK: This is a house meeting, Neil.
NEIL: That's what I'm saying. Is it? Well, where's Mike and Vyvyan then?
RICK: They're late. We're only here on time because you kept me up all night, pacing around up and down and ringing bells.
NEIL: Listen, man. Sleep gives you cancer. Everyone knows that.
RICK: Listen, Neil. Do you know the difference between you and some number two's?! [pause] Nothing! [Neil sniffs and tears well up in his eyes] Stop crying, Neil.
ABSOLUTELY HILARIOUS!!! ://?roflmao?/:
