Customer Reviews

Bottom's up for Richie and Eddie!
Richie and Eddie return in Bottom series 2. The DVD comes complete with all 6 uncut episodes including the extented version of Holy which was cut for the TV show (and VHS tape for some reason). It also comes with 30 minutes of uncensored outtakes (throw away your Bottom Fluffs tape) and extended scenes (one long scene from Digger and 2 scenes from Holy which are on the Holy extended).

Although this series isn't as funny as series 3. This is sure to keep u laughing for hours.

Vodka Margarine
Trying to review Bottom in a thoughtful, introspective way is like a blunt pencil shoved up Eddie Hitler's nose - pointless and painful. But I'll give it a try nonetheless.

This is the second of three series and as always Richie and Eddie are in fine form. Guest-starring are Helen Lederer (in best "I so hate poor peepill" Transylvanian countess mode, giving Michael Howard a run for his money with that accent!), Julia Sawalha and Robert Llewellyn trying to resist Richie's charms, as well as Christopher "Mike the Cool Person" Ryan making a return visit as Eddie's mate Dave Hedgehog. In other episodes Richie and Eddie go it alone, during an all-night game of chess and a camping trip to Wimbledon Common; the line "I wonder how much meat you get on a womble" almost beating the quip about "vodka margarine" which is rolled out on cue at our family Christmases ever since the first airing of the show.

The only downside is the special extended version of Holy - not that it's not a great episode, but the scene with Richie's self-portrait was (deservedly) cut from the original broadcast, yet it is inserted into the main episode here *and* the Bottom Fluffs extra, which was unnecessary. However the star I would have taken off for this goes back on because the BF on this DVD is much longer than the one on the first series.

Bottom 2: Revenge of the killer arse
Rik and Ade returned to the screens to save us all from the dry and middle class wit of many poor quality shows that were around at the time. They didnt let us down either. The characters of Eddie and Richie were slightly more defined, the violence was slightly more gratuitous and the foulness that they created wherever they went was slightly more foul.

A truly great series and a fantastic successor to the young ones.
