Rik Mayall was a pioneer of alternative comedy, writing and performing in a style which revolutionised TV sitcoms and led to such memorable series as Filthy Rich & Catflap, The Comic Strips Presents, Bottom, The New Statesman, and the one which still brings location tourists to Bristol, The Young Ones. Here, his Young Ones and The Comic Strip Presents co-star, Nigel Planer, discusses Rik’s legacy with superfan Robin Ince, using clips from Rik’s output to salute his creative brilliance, including rare and previously unseen footage.
