Where Is Rik Mayall? …Oh Wait, There He Is!

Ah, I’m so pleased to see his insane face again!

Today, Mr. Adrian Edmondson put this photo up on his Twitter feed with the caption:
“Writing with this complete bastard today…”

Excited?
I know I am!

* UPDATE!
(From Marion McMullen of The Coventry Telegraph of all people and places)…

THE boys from Bottom are back in a new show which sees Rik Mayall and Ade Edmondson revive their cult characters Richie Rich and Eddie Hitler.
(Actually, it’s Richard Richard and Edward Elizabeth Hitler. Get it right Marion McMullen of The Coventry Telegraph!).

The pair have swapped their filthy flat for the sandy shores of a tropical island in the six-part series.

Ade said: “It’s been a while since I last worked with that complete b****** Rik Mayall and I’m very much looking forward to bashing him about the head with various blunt objects. It’s the only language he understands.”

The show, called Hooligans Island, will be on BBC2 next year.

It is one of a series of new comedy commissions announced at the Edinburgh International Television Festival, including David Mitchell and Robert Webb in Our Men.

The show, billed as a comedy drama, stars Mitchell as the British ambassador in the fictional country of Tazbekistan and Webb as a devious diplomat.

Another show sees Father Ted writer Graham Linehan team up with Steve Delaney to bring the comic’s creation Count Arthur Strong to television.

The character, a pompous self-styled showbusiness legend, will feature in six half-hour episodes.

Executive producer Gregor Sharp said: “We are absolutely delighted to see Graham and Steve join the immensely talented group of writers and comedians making brilliant shows across the BBC channels.”

Al Cook’s “Necropolis”. Cut Loose: Part I.

Part II was supposed to be out long before now but I had conflicting ideas of where I wanted it to go.
Zip on over to Al Cook’s “Necropolis” to see Part I of ‘Cut Loose’ in all its glory and where Part II will appear in the not to distant future.

Oh aye!
Please become a pal on the Facebook Page because it’s pretty lonely over there.

The Power of Twitter.

What with Facebook changing every goddamn day and becoming more user unfriendly with each update, I’m using my Twitter account more and more.
I like Twitter. There’s no fucking about on Twitter.
Say what you’ve got to say and say it in 140 characters or less.
Simple.

It can come in really handy at times too.
Here’s an example of just how handy Twitter can really be:

YEARS ago, I caught a film on TV in the early hours of the morning. I don’t remember it as being a particularly good film. Matter of fact, I don’t even remember anything about it except for this part -
There’s a bit in the film where some guy is tied to a chair and then some Woman (Who the guy hates) in a red PVC dress tries to have sex with him against his will but she can’t. So, she goes down on the guy and then has sex with him. Against his will.
Then whilst this is all going on, a third guy shows up and BLOWS THE WOMAN’S BRAINS OUT!

So anyways, I’ve never seen or heard about this film ever since and I had no idea what it was called or how to look it up. So I turned to Twitter.

After a couple of ridiculous replies (The Colour Purple?) David Avallone chimed in with this:
“The movie was called “Thursday”, and her name is Porizkova. That scene made the poster” and guess what folks!
- He was right on the money!

How about that!
The movie looks utter shit but Mickey Rourke is even in it and I’ll probably watch it again anyways just to see that classic scene again.

You can find ”Thursday” on the IMDB HERE and follow me on Twitter HERE.
(As per, follow me on Twitter and I’ll follow you in real life!)

Look Who’s On Twitter…

And that’s all he says.
Every day of every month.

It’s easily my favourite thing on Twitter basically because it’s so fucking annoying.
I like that someone has went to the trouble of setting up a Jack Torrance Twitter account which constantly updates itself solely to annoy people
Follow it for a while and you’ll see what I mean.

Alternatively,
Follow me HERE or HERE.

Follow, Poke & Facefuck Me.

I’ve decided to continue with this online comic book of mine:
Al Cook’s “Necropolis”.

I’m really enjoying myself with it.
It’s fun to do and I can’t get my ideas down fast enough most nights.

My plan is to continue writing & drawing it in black and white until I have enough for a big thick book.
After that,
I want to do a second volume in full colour then call it a day and move onto something new.
I figure that will take me at least a year or so.

With that in mind,
I thought I’d set up a few places where I can post updates, news, plugs etc…
You get the idea.

Anyways…

* Al Cook’s “Necropolis” can be found HERE.

* And on Twitter HERE.
