about
Richard Michael "Rik" Mayall (7 March 1958 – 9 June 2014) was an English comedian, writer, actor, and voice-over artist. Mayall was best known for his comedy partnership with Adrian "Ade" Edmondson, for his energetic "post-punk" style of acting, and as a pioneer of alternative comedy in the early 1980s. He appeared in numerous cult classic sitcoms, including The Young Ones (1982–84), Filthy Rich & Catflap (1987), The New Statesman (1987–94), Bottom (1991–95), and Blackadder, and in the comedy films Drop Dead Fred (1991) and Guest House Paradiso (1999). In April 2010, Motivation Records released Mayall's England Football anthem "Noble England" for the 2010 FIFA World Cup. On the track, Mayall performs an adapted speech from Shakespeare's Henry V. After Mayall's death in 2014, a campaign began to get "Noble England" to number 1 during the 2014 FIFA World Cup. It is currently climbing the iTunes chart in the United Kingdom.
