Let me introduce you to the two main characters in Bottom. Richard Richard (Rik Mayall) and Eddie Hitler (Adrian Edmonson) are flatmates who share a grotty flat. The pair are anti- social slobs, who have probably have never cleaned their flat. They spend most of their time moaning about their uneventful sex lives. Occasionally they also find the time to insult and injure one another. The idea behind the shows came from the two stars themselves, who wrote the episodes together. Altogether there are eighteen episodes of Bottom which span over three series. The series were broadcast by the BBC between 1991 and 1995.
Episode 1: Smells
This is a good episode to introduce people to Richie and Eddie. The pair are desperate to meet women. Everywhere they look, couples are kissing and cuddling. Eddie thinks this is extremely unfair, and doesn't understand why men will not share their woman with him. The pair get so desperate that they resort to the local ads in the newspapers. This is where they see an advert for a sort of wonder-spray called ‘Pheromone Sex Scent', which guarantees success with the women. So off Richie and Eddie go to the local sex shop to buy some of the spray. Armed with it they then head for their local pub, confident that they will get lucky!
Episode 2 : Accident
Another year has passed, and Richie's still received birthday cards from celebrities. Well, if you believe him that is! Its Richie's birthday and he is planning a super duper party. The only problem is that no one has confirmed their intention to come. While putting up decorations for the party, Richie manages to fall off his chair and nastily injures his leg. Rushed to hospital, he starts to wonder if his birthday is going to be a complete disaster. Things get a little better when Spudgun, and Dave hedgehog, two of Eddie's friends, turn up for the party. Excited by the arrival of his guests, Richie sets about organising games for the group to play. Could this be Richie's best birthday yet?
Episode 3 : Digger
Richie and Eddie decide that their best option for finding women is to use a dating agency. They join an agency called ‘Lily Linneker's Love Bureau' and create a video which hopefully will attract the opposite sex. Richie pretends he is royalty and gets matched up with the countess of Moldovia. He persuades Eddie to be his butler, and invites the countess to his pad! Will Richie finally get lucky or will the countess smell a rat?
Episode 4 : Holy
Its Christmas and Richie and Eddie are like little excited school boys. The episode starts off with Richie dressing as Santa Claus, and a funny little sketch. Excited by the time of year, Richie and Eddie unwrap their presents. They then start planning a special dinner for friends. The usual suspects, Spudgun and Dave Hedgehog turn up, but that is not the end of the guests! A baby is left on their doorstep, which Richie thinks is Baby Jesus. Is this really the second coming or a simple mistake? This episode is supposed to be extended by five minutes for the DVD. While the running time is certainly much longer than the other episodes, I must admit that I didn't recognise the extra footage.
Episode 5 : Hole
This is the first episode in series three, and in my opinion one of the best. It is set on a ferris wheel, which Richie and Eddie have managed to get stuck on. The fairground closes with the pair still on the ride. Not much actually happens in this episode, but the jokes are free flowing. Unfortunately someone decided to include some very annoying laughter noises in this episode, so after every joke we get some piercing laughter. This somewhat spoils the episode.
