Bottom	comment	The Brit Com, stripped down to its absolute minimum requirements: two idiots, sharing living space, passing the Idiot Ball back and forth so fast that you can't distinguish between the two.Richard "Richie" Richard [sic] (Rik Mayall) - a sex-starved, sadistic, physically repugnant loser with delusions of sophistication - takes out his frustrations at life upon Edward "Eddie" Elizabeth Hitler (Adrian Edmondson), his boozy, slightly more intelligent, but equally perverted and sadistic flatmate. Frequently, this involves over-the-top violence that would make Itchy & Scratchy wince. Eddie, for his part, is quite willing to respond in kind.The Spiritual Successor to The Young Ones and Filthy Rich & Catflap, inspired loosely by Waiting for Godot. It ran for three series on BBC2 from 1991 to 1995 before transferring to Theatre as a series of two-man shows, as well as the feature film adaptation Guest House Paradiso.On 23rd August 2012, the BBC announced that after an eighteen-year absence from TV screens, Richie and Eddie would be returning in 2013 for a new six-part series under the Hooligans' Island title used for one of their stage shows. Alas, just two months later, it was announced that the series was not going ahead after all. The only explanation forthcoming was from Adrian Edmondson, who said "We started working on something and we realised why we stopped working together (with the BBC)."Sadly a year later Rik Mayall died aged 56, thus putting an end to any thoughts of a revival for good and leading to a great What Could Have Been moment in British comedy.Came forty-fifth in Britains Best Sitcom. No relation to the donkey-headed character in Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream, or to 2023's Sex Comedy, Bottoms.

Bottom / int_116f6f1c	type	Self-Plagiarism
Bottom / int_116f6f1c	comment	Self-Plagiarism: In "Gas," Richie objects to Eddie cutting up the gasman with cutlery, because they have to eat off them. The same joke appeared in The Young Ones episode "Sick," where Rik objected to Vyvyan using cutlery to perform acupuncture on Neil to stop his sneezing. The overall plot of "Culture" veers awfully close to a long sequence in Episode Five of Filthy Rich & Catflap, involving two characters also named Richie and Eddie (and portrayed by the same actors) desperately trying to pass the time with board games. Just as in "Culture," Richie throws himself into playing, whereas Eddie just wants to be left alone.

In Bottom Live, Eddie becomes Richie's legally adopted son and wife (the lawyer ran out of adoption papers) to get at Â£15,000, which turns out to be a debt from Richie's great uncle Norman.

This results in Eddie (and by proxy, Richie) running afoul of "Skullcrusher" Henderson, Hammersmith's counterfeit money kingpin. Eddie's product is equally as good (incompetent) as Skullcrusher's,note Skullcrusher: That ain't the Queen; it's Danny La Rue! and therefore, he quite reasonably considers Eddie a serious threat to his business.

Bottom / int_19851b86	comment	The Sociopath: Both protagonists: Apart from being very quick to anger and violent, Richie is also a compulsive liar who makes up stories about himself whenever there's a chance that he could stand to benefit from it (most notably in "Digger" and "Parade" where he claims to be the Duke of Kidderminster and a Falklands war veteran, both times so that he could convince a woman to have sex with him), engages in various criminal acts such as stealing gas from his nextdoor neighbour, has seemingly no empathy for anyone at all and never accepts any responsibility for his mistakes. The only thing that really makes Eddie more stable than Richie is that he actually has friends, other than that he ticks pretty much all of the same boxes. One thing that does make him worse than Richie, however, is how he seemingly takes pleasure in causing pain to others such as in "Culture" where he looks completely content while smashing Richie's head with the fridge door. He also says that he continued hitting the gas man with a frying in "Gas" "for fun."

Eddie's too used to Richie's eccentricities, and Dave Hedgehog is usually too intoxicated to object to anything.

Some of their other talents shown throughout the episodes: Richie has read War and Peace more than once (it's the only novel he owns). He also knows a bit about art, and at one point mentions Toulouse-Lautrec. Eddie can play the piano, and recognises Vivaldi at one point when Richie sings it. He's also a crack shot with an air rifle, and capable of taking out a carny's eye at ten paces.

Bottom / int_3b4f620a	comment	No Fourth Wall: Depends on whether you're watching the television series, or the five Bottom Live shows. In stark contrast to The Young Ones and Filthy Rich & Catflap, this trope is largely averted in the TV series, and it's a rare and notable occasion when a character on Bottom breaks the fourth wall outright. It's a different story in the live shows. Richie and Eddie are completely aware that they're fictional characters on a stage, and have no problem insulting the audience's hometowns, threatening to fire crew members, and complaining that all their troubles are the fault of those fat ugly bastards who play them.

Richie challenges him to the standard game of chess, which hits a snag when 'Death' admits he doesn't know the rules. Richie then suggests Cluedo, which hits a snag when 'Death' reveals that he knows perfectly well that Richie always cheats by looking at the mystery cards. They settle on I-Spy, which hits yet another snag when 'Death' betrays an inability to spell.

These often form some of the funniest moments in the production. Though reportedly the suck wasn't always stylised; in later interviews Edmondson admitted that one of the reasons they eventually stopped during the shows was that Mayall's ability to remember his lines was gradually getting worse, especially after his infamous quad bike accident which resulted in a severe head injury, and this became quite frustrating for both.

In The Big Number 2, Eddie explicitly asks a prison guard for one so he can continue hitting an unconscious Richie in the knackers. In Weapons Grade Y-Fronts, Eddie freezes Richie in time moments before he drinks a violent poison and to stop him he smacks Richie in the face with a cricket bat. Often averted in the series. It is used only to prop up a trapdoor in "'s Up" despite the violence that ensues, and in "Gas" Eddie wields it more than once but eventually uses a frying pan.

Bottom / int_78c895c8	comment	Amusing Injuries: Played up immensely. The main characters are thrown around and tormented with cartoon levels of injury with no major consequences except when it is required for the plot. For example in the first episode, Eddie tries to yank out one of Richie's nostril hairs with a pair of pliers, throwing him around the room before dislodging them from his nose. Richie retaliated by ripping a cabinet off the wall and smashing it over Eddie's head. He barely flinches before hitting Richie right through the door. One of the most far-fetched is definitely in "Gas" where they hit the gas-man over the head repeatedly with a frying pan and punch him, then (when they think he is dead) proceed to punch him some more, inflate him with a bicycle pump ("How does he look?" "Fatter."), electrocute him with wires, stick a fork in his groin after deciding to try eating him, jump up and down on top of him to flatten him down underneath the carpet and are then about to toss him out of the window on top of a bus when he wakes up, alive and well. One of the most cartoonish no-long-term-consequences moments is when Richie cuts both Eddie's legs off with a chainsaw. Eddie then sews them back on with an ordinary needle and thread, but gets them back to front. Richie then cuts them off with the chainsaw again and sews them back on the right way round himself. Apart from walking strangely for a few moments Eddie is unaffected.

Eddie once makes a passing comment that they're middle-aged. Richie and Eddie have been stuck together since at least the early 1970s, and they've apparently known each other since The '60s. Their apartment bears the hallmarks of having been lived-in for decades, with every visible surface seemingly covered in grime, and features anachronistic touches like an electric organ with a framed photo of Elvis on top. They comment about new and old money - the pound was decimalised in 1971 (twenty years before Bottom began) so the change must've happened late enough in their lives for it to still be how they think in terms of cash. In "Break," Richie insinuates that he was conceived during The Blitz in 1940 or 1941, implying that he's in his fifties.

In "Smells," he suggests Richie's personals ad read "Ugly virgin desperately seeks sex of any description," and in "Contest," he says that even putting a wig on a Speak Your Weight machine would do. Also briefly happens to Eddie at the end of "Smells." He tries to put the moves on Richie while in a state of complete delirium, after inhaling pheromone spray on top of his typically generous alcohol consumption. Richie rejects his advances, but does accept Eddie's invitation to "plant a big one right on me kisser." Also shown in "Accident", when Richie explains the rules of Sardines:

In the second Bottom Live stage show, he claims in a letter to the Queen to be an "Old soldier who, during the war, fought a desperate rearguard action in Burma."

Example from "Gas": Richie and Eddie have been stealing from the neighbour's gas line; now they have to come up with a way to disconnect it without getting caught - the kitchen explodes into a fireball in the process. Another in "Parade" when they try to steal a Falklands War veteran's leg to put the money on a three-legged, blind race horse whose jockey gets shot. The following plan of mugging people in the toilets to buy the leg back is foiled by the first victim - a police officer. Averted in "Apocalypse" when Richie gets an apparent death curse from a fortune teller, which he believes was a plot by Eddie to steal the other half of his inheritance from auntie Olga. In general, Richie and Eddie will inevitably let their fundamental stupidity, lack of foresight and inability to solve problems without violence bollocks up any kind of plan they make, no matter how seemingly straightforward and simple it should be.

The man also thinks the books are, in fact, "posh loo paper." In "Carnival," Richie trips on stairs and falls head first into the toilet. When he gets out, his head and face have brown stains everywhere. Hooligan's Island's first act has Richie fall into a latrine and spends the entire show with a skid-mark all the way up his back.

True to form, following a few similarities to the Nativity story he lets this go completely to his head. Convinced that he's the "Mother of God" and has maintained his virginity because he's "better than everyone else in the world," he threatens that the other characters will be sent to Hell by his 'husband-in-law'. It turns out it's the grandson of their landlord, who left him on the step because he couldn't be bothered dealing with the kid himself. Spudgun, Dave Hedgehog and Eddie are wearing paper crowns from Christmas crackers and give the baby presents with names similar to the gifts the Magi gave Jesus.

On one occasion, when he needed a stiff drink to settle his nerves, Eddie offered him a shot of Tizer (a soft drink, for non-Brits), which did the trick anyway. In another episode, Richie tries to take a swig from an empty bottle Eddie already filled himself with and suddenly believes he's fallen into a drunken stupor, though it doesn't last.

Richie and Eddie truly despise each other, and they delight in causing each other all kinds of pain, anguish, hardship, and traumaâ€“â€“both physical and emotionalâ€“â€“at every chance they get. Not only is this the only way they know how to function, the series makes it very clear that this is the life Richie and Eddie both deserve, and quite rightly so.

Unfortunately, it happens to be Â£5,000 of Skullcrusher's own forged cash, which turns out to be useless for paying off their debt. And they don't discover this until they've already given Dick Â£1,000 worth of gold teeth for their entry fee.

Bottom / int_f6b1ac42	comment	Tim Taylor Technology: If you compare a real-life cattle prod to Richie and Eddie's cattle prod from "Terror" (which is about four feet long, has to be carried via a shoulder strap and has enough batteries and wiring to power a medium-sized street), it's no wonder Richie keeps crapping his pants whenever he tries turning the thing on.

Bottom / int_fb4c41b4	comment	"Friends" Rent Control: Despite having lived on the dole since 1978, they're in no danger of being kicked out for non-payment. Even a flat as God-awful as theirs wouldn't drop the rent that low. Of course, Richie's Auntie Mabel is the one who pays the rent (quick, hide the fags).

Bottom / int_fbd285b7	type	Comically Missing the Point
Bottom / int_fbd285b7	comment	Comically Missing the Point: "'s Up" has Richie and Eddie's landlord rope them into to minding his shop while he goes to a funeral, which naturally goes straight to Richie's head. He starts proudly going on about how England is "a nation of shopkeepers" and how that makes them better than countries like France and Italy, no doubt unaware that the saying was prominently used by Emperor Napoleon I. And he meant it derisively. While the phrase has been taken as Insult Backfire by Britons smarter than Richie since then, the original meaning is referred to when Eddie skeptically demands to know exactly what's so great about being a nation of shopkeepers in the first place: It's fair to say that whenever Richie claims expertise in a subject, applies his mental faculties to anything or infers some kind of noble role he has fulfilled in the past, he'll either get it completely wrong, fail miserably or be lying so feebly that practically nobody could buy his bullshit. This quote: Eddie and Richie talk about church in "'s Up": Another quote from "'s Up": In "Carnival":

Bottom / int_fd76df83	type	Artistic License â€“ Economics
Bottom / int_fd76df83	comment	Artistic License â€“ Economics: In keeping with comedic tradition, the plot lines and characters on Bottom sometimes deal with absurdly small amounts of money, especially for The '90s, when the series is set. In "Contest," Eddie gets kicked off the dole because his life savings of Â£11.80 is deemed enough to sustain him for "at least two months." In "Gas," Richie and Eddie are caught up in a game of high-stakes poker. Eddie pushes the tension towards the breaking point when he bets 3p in real money. Richie wipes the sweat from his cheeks as he eyes the pot.

Bottom / int_ffb1df90	comment	Perpetual Poverty: Neither of the characters has a steady income. In fact, they're only allowed to buy anything when there's a punchline to be had in it. Their poverty is rather strange, Richie particularly because it seems he comes from a somewhat aristocratic, or at least a bit rich, family, since one aunt pays the rent and the other leaves them Â£600 in her will. Though given that Richie is, well, Richie, it can be assumed that this is the bare minimum that his family is willing to support or generally interact with him.
