Meet Richard Richard and Eddie Hitler, two pimples on life's bottom - whose ever desperate search for cash, women and the good life had established them as the most disgusting, repulsive, needlessly violent losers on television.

So when, during recordings, Rik and Ade mess up, miss cues, forget lines, or reach for misplaced props, are they contrite, polite, discreet and charming? ARE THEY F**K! Such antics are merely the spur to the juvenile sniggers, competitive swearing, two fingered and other hand salutes and ad-libs too disgusting to find their way to the screen.

So whether you're a dedicated Bottom delver or just pick at an occasional Bottom, this is your backstage pass to the most bad-arsed comedy of the 90s - a collection of bloopers, out takes, corpses and more than a fair share of pure ring-tingling bollock-ups that are right up your alley.

Bottom Live

The first Bottom Live was squalid, violent and downright hilarious - The Big Number 2 Tour Live is all that and more.

Filmed during the 1995 sell out nationwide tour which left over 500,000 fans standing on their seats and screaming for more, The Big Number 2 Tour features Adrian Edmonson as Eddie and Rik Mayall as Richie at their most demoniacal, violent and uncensored best.

The problem is sex! From the Queen to a sheep, they desperately and catastrophically try to press the flesh at every available opportunity whilst farting, fighting and cursing their way through their disgusting and sleazy lives.

Bottom Live "The Big Number 2 Tour", is the funniest and most outrageous comedy you will ever see. Grab your Bottom now.

Bottom Live: The Big Number 2 Tour

Rik Mayall and Adrian Edmondson are back - even bigger and more Bottomly than ever - with Bottom Live 3 Hooligan's Island. Filmed during their sell-out 1997 tour we find Richie and Eddie marooned on a desert island in the middle of the Pacific.

Will they build a raft and escape? Grasp the opportunity to embrace the earthly paradise around them? Or will they simply bicker and fart, fight, puke, poke and masturbate their way through 100 minutes of the most hilariously outrageous live situation comedy on offer in Britain today?

Bottom Live 3: Hooligans' Island

You laughed at their antics in 'The Young Ones'. You loved them as the Dangerous Brothers. You enjoyed their gross-out humour as Richard Richard and Eddie Hitler in 'Bottom' on the telly. Then it got even better when they took their 'Bottom' show on the road - live, with loads of improvised moments of hilarity.  Now it's Rik Mayall and Adrian Edmondson in their biggest ever tour - 'Bottom Live 4'. This is the recorded version of their most recent show, entitled '2001 - An Arse Oddity'. It's their first time working together since making the film 'Guest House Paradiso' in 1999, so you know you're in for a bloody good time.

Bottom Live 2001: An Arse Oddity

Rik Mayall and Ade Edmonson star as the criminally insane no-hopers Richie and Eddie, who plan to save the world (and possibly destroy it trying) from a conflict much bigger than a mere Gulf War - the fight between good and underpants. Eddie has invented a time travelling toilet to help them along the way...

Bottom Live 2003: Weapons-Grade Y-Fronts Tour

For 25 years, Rik Mayall & Adrian Edmondson have been kicking the s**t out of each other: on TV, on tape and on the stage...

This is a definitive anthology of those eye-watering moments: 25 years of thwacking, headbutting and gouging, bottling, brick lobbing, attempted dentistry with spades, setting each other on fire, and removing vital organs with ordinary household objects...

Every single gouge, punch and belt, not only from the three TV series of Bottom and the five Bottom Live videos, but also from The Young Ones, Filthy Rich & Catflap, The Dangerous Brothers and The Comic Strip Presents...the meat hooks up the nose, the thong removal with an oxyacetylene torch, the blazing farts after eating 'The Sprouts of Doom', Vyvyan kicking his head down the railway track, the 'Towering Inferno' impression that went wrong...

Watch if your testicles dare - It's a screaming hardcore pile of b*ll*@ks from hell.

25 Years of Mindless Violence

Richie and Eddie are in charge of the worst hotel in the UK, Guest House Paradiso, neighbouring a nuclear power plant. The illegal immigrant chef has fled and all the guests have gone. But when a famous Italian filmstar, Gina Carbonara, who is in hiding from a fiance she doesn't want to marry, arrives at the hotel, things get very interesting!

This combination of all the best bits of their three live performances and the making of Guest House Paradiso is superb. The countless sexual inuendos, bottom burps and violent toilet humour is cleverly followed by the making of their film. It contains footage on how they achieved all the special effects including the shooting green vomit and Richie (Rik Mayall) being blown up in a red rubber suit. A great video from the kings of alternative comedy

The Dangerous Brothers was a stage and TV act by anarchic comedy duo Rik Mayall and Ade Edmondson, performing respectively as "Richard Dangerous" and "Sir (or occasionally Lady) Adrian Dangerous". They appeared in a number of brief sketches in the 1980s TV programme Saturday Live.

The act was, in essence, a prototype of the career which the pair were to forge over the next twenty years in such shows as Mr Jolly Lives Next Door; Filthy, Rich and Catflap; and Bottom- two low-life loser perverts hitting each other in spectacular slapstick ways. It was arguably more hazardous than much of the material which was to follow in later incarnations - stage props in the brief run included a live (and very large, although apparently lethargic) crocodile, blank-firing submachine guns, and Edmondson apparently consuming Vim, a well-known UK brand of powder toilet cleaner. One of the early sketches went wrong when a stunt to set fire to Edmondson's trousers left him with serious burns - although much of this was left on the broadcast version.

Sketches included

World Of Danger (AKA The Towering Inferno)

Big Stunt

Torture - featuring Norman Lovett

Crocodile Snogging (which featured a live crocodile)

Flying Zebra

Exploding Politicians (in which Richard Dangerous attempts to become the 41st President of the United States of America)

How To Get Off With A Lady - featuring Edmondson's wife Jennifer Saunders

Babysitting - featuring Morwenna Banks as the wife and John Bird as the husband.

Dangervision

Kinky Sex

One sketch guest-starred Stephen Fry & Hugh Laurie. When the Dangerous Brothers interrupt their flower arranging routine, Fry & Laurie inform them they have been banned. The Brothers leave, only to return moments later disguised as The Ben Elton Brothers.

One of the final sketches prepared for Saturday Live was entitled 'Kinky Sex'. This fell foul of Channel 4 censors who banned it. The duo responded by apparently hijacking the programme and blowing up the wall on which the show's logo was painted in graffiti art. The sketch, which by modern standards seems fairly tame, was finally released on a compilation video The Dangerous Brothers present: World of Danger.

The Dangerous Brothers Present World of Danger

The Dangerous Brothers were one of Rik and Ade's first comic Creations. This stand-up routine is from their May 5th 1981 appearance on 80s cabaret show 'Boom, Boom... Out Go The Lights'. Extra on the 'Full Bottom - Not Another Half-Arsed DVD Set'.

The Dangerous Brothers (Boom, Boom... Out Go The Lights)

Adrian Edmondson gives a first-hand account of making the hit show, Bottom, with the late, great Rik Mayall, alongside contributions from a host of the show's cast, crew and famous fans.

Bottom Exposed

Snippet of Rik Mayall and Adrian Edmondson's act that was part of a memorial show held in tribute to the late Peter Cook, performed at the Prince of Wales Theatre at London's West End. In their part of the show, Mayall and Edmondson reprise their roles as Richie and Eddie attempting to reenact one of Cook's famous bits, which they of course butcher.

Peter Cook: A Posthumorous Tribute

Richie Richard (socially awkward, sexually inexperienced) and Eddie Hitler (carefree alcoholic ) are two social outcasts living on the dole. Trapped together in a squalid flat in Hammersmith, London they are perpetually skint, bored and sexually frustrated. They spend their days scheming, bickering, and being nasty and sadistic to each other.
