Trapped together in a squalid flat in Hammersmith, London they are perpetually skint, bored and sexually frustrated.

Alicia I love this movie so much
Lovesusti The Worst Film Ever
SnoReptilePlenty Memorable, crazy movie
Pluskylang Great Film overall
chinesexiaomin Not only in this show but also in his other works Rik is always so enthusiastic and knowing what he is doing.
Lizzy Hynes Bottom is in my top three TV programmes, alongside The Young Ones and Steptoe and Son. It is a unique mixture of violent slapstick, swearing and surreal plots, and I love it.First broadcast in 1991, Bottom is about Richard 'Richie' Richard and Edward 'Eddie' Elizabeth Hitler, two sad, disgusting perverts who share a flat in Hammersmith, and hate each other. Richie, played by Rik Mayall, is a sex obsessed virgin who is desperate to 'do it'. He spends most of his time masterb- I mean studying, trying to chat up women with his best and only chat up line - "What a smashing blouse you have on!" - and fighting with Eddie. He acts like Eddie's wife in most aspects; he wears an apron, does the housework and tells Eddie off - "You are grounded, young man! ".Eddie, played by Adrian Edmondson, is an alcoholic who is almost drunk. He is not quite as pitiful as Richie: he has a few friends - Spudgun and Dave Hedgehog - , is usually cheerful and, whilst still unlucky with the opposite sex, is known to have done it at least twice. My favourite episodes are Gas -"HELLO, MR GAS MAN!" - Accident, S'Out -"Maybe it's a Womble!"- and Finger - "Edwina."
Just-Being-Me This comedy never gets old, it never fails to make me laugh, it is one of the only comedy shows that actually makes me LOL (laugh out loud). It is just amazing and always cheers me up. It makes me laugh just thinking of the things that happen in the show. I think these two are the perfect comedy duo. Yes it is rude, yes there is a lot of sex talk/jokes, there is violence but it is very funny.People will judge the actors because of this but it is a fact that Rik Mayall and Ade Edmondson are actually very intelligent people, they choose to act like this because it is fun, not too serious and they know just what to do to get people laughing. I have always been a very big fan of these two.If you are a big fan of these two i would totally recommend "guest house paradiso"... it is a film (like bottom) with these two in, about them running a not so great hotel (also stars Simon Pegg) and it is funny, very funny, i wouldn't say it is better than bottom but it is good.I wish these two would make more bottom eps but i doubt they will. One of the best ever comedy shows.10 out of 10, no questions asked.
DonSalsa Richard Richard and Edward Hitler...ahhh...I love everything these guys do. Rik Mayall and Adrian Edmondson is the most violent,fun comedy act around.I'd go as far as saying that this duo is as equal revolutionary as Monty Python. It's really not easy comparing this...all I can think of is The Young Ones(another show by Edmondson and Mayall).Expect your typical in-your face British humor with a dose of Python meeting Ren and Stimpy. Watch these sad old roommate gits,Richie - always trying to score with some bird and using horrible pick-up lines and Ed Hitler,drunken looser.They seem to always beat up each other silly...and and...now just go and watch it..you bastard!
