    British comedian and actor Rik Mayall has died aged 56

    British comedian and actor Rik Mayall has died aged 56, according to his management team.

    He played the obnoxious, poetry-writing anarchist Rick in The Young Ones alongside his friend Adrian Edmondson before the duo later went on to star in their sitcom Bottom.

    Mayall also appeared in shows including Blackadder and The New Statesman.

    He died at home in London. The Metropolitan Police said the death was not believed to be suspicious.

    They said they were called to reports of a sudden death of a man in his 50s at 13:19 BST on Monday, in Barnes in south west London.

    London Ambulance Service said "a man, aged in his 50s, was pronounced dead at the scene".

    The actor, who was married with three children, was left seriously ill after a quad bike accident in 1998 which left him in a coma for several days.

    I find it so sad the it may have been the result of the quad injury so many years earlier, and I that you can just die without any warning. Scares me.

    I remember him most for Bottom, rather then the young ones. Oh and of course black adder.

    RIP Rik.

    RIP Rik

    The man was a legend "the young ones", "the new statesman" & "bottom" to name just a few. I highly over talented and underrated comedian. The world has become a bit less funny this month. Respect where it's due. Hidden Content

    If you like the richie/eddy combo you should check youtube for eddys performance 3 days after. Pretty much all dedicated to richie and he's boozing on stage.
