[EvilKempe]

@toalett Men skärp dig... Dessa grabbar kommer alltid spela i ligan över dig.

[Forserean]

Yeah. thats the bits I like.

[minnietheminx]

Apparently the "who's that on bass"? comes from the fact that Sid Vicious never did any of the bass on Sex Pistols' Never Mind The Bollocks, Steve Jones did it all!

[Bassolator]

it´s in the lyrics... isn´t it?

[Alexander507]

I didn't see that camera...

[Acrobatdog99]

Who's That Playing Bass? WHO IS IT!?

Funny.

[JeffdetH]

Wow im gonna go start a band called tenacious-T.

[StayUgly]

@JeffdetH You know Bad news existed before Spinal tap, right!?

[JeffdetH]

nah

[almightyseancore]

@StayUgly yeah, by about 8 months, nobody was ripping anybody off, but it is a very strong coincidence.

[flyboyofglam]

@StayUgly Actually, Tap came first on a TV special in the late 70s, however Bad News Tour came before This is Spinal Tap, but they were indeed probably just thinking the same thing at relatively the same time

[wixibixi]

greets from bad news to manowar !!!!

[adventussaxonum]

"Burning ,looting,raping and a - shooting"-genius!

-and Tony Head behind the mixing desk.

[happyavacado]

[fozzee69]

Classic comedy! I'm still laughing after I saw it back in the 80's! Love it!

[ronnieneo]

I saw these live at Newcastle city hall, next day they were signing the new album at hmv, and Rik was still in character the guy never lets up, he is a genius.

[Glennfaw]

[ProjectFlashlight612]

Bad News f**kin' RULE! I have a signed copy of the Warriors single (Frilly Pink 005). And Vim bled on me at Donnington after a bottle hit his head. Greatest band ever.

[Pitbullterrieren]

0:53 is funny, too! I liked it when he said "ACTION! PLAYBACK!" 1:21 1:42 to 1:51, 2:03, 2:12.

[Pitbullterrieren]

2:18 to 2:25 and 1:33!

[HTINSPECTOR]

best rock band ever

[Pitbullterrieren]

HTINSPECTOR... This is NOT a rock band, but a heavy metal parody band.

[carpypark]

no shit Sherlock

[AceripXF]

at least this part isn't out of sync

[Coldacre]

great song! Ade has a Lemmy-ish quality to his voice. this version is heaps better (faster) than the one that ended up on the Bad News album

[numpty1972]

I agree I always preferred this version, though I like the album version too. Btw how many bands have had a go at this song?

[FlyingHeadbutt100]

A rite of passage.EVERY new up-and-coming shitty garage band has had a bash at this.

[johnnyc2712]

Its a political song.

[ecopunk66]

welllll......poetical political!

[goldpot007]

hey mega tune man

[sebas71]

One of the greatest songs of the eighties. Puts Motorhead, Metallica and Manowar to shame!!

[vCore666]

Haha det där är ju inspelat från ettan :P Jag såg Det där på hårdrocksnatten

hahaha

[doughnutdoney]

Bad News was orginally screened on Ch4sometime in 1983. They then did a follow up (which this is from) in 1988. Yup this is near enough 20 years old now. Any chance of a comeback??

[neonselleri]

Colin: the first stagediving of history? Den has a cute smile!

[BakkiBoo]

God I loved the 'Young Ones'!! When did this come out!!! How I've miss their madness! And WOW Jennifer Saunders!! Hold on ...isnt she's married to Adrian Edmondson? That explains alot! This must be early 90's maybe?

[AceripXF]

yes jennifer married Ade

[stampylongnose]

i just finished making a mockumentary like this but for an ametur teenage band. if u liked this, its the top video on my channel if you wanted to check it out.

More Bad News is one of the best Comic Strip episodes n' definitely one of my faves!! :D I just adore Nigel in this, he's SO funny!!

[Guitarmate24]

[super8wannabe]

Wahey! An ace film that takes me way back to the 80s - cheers for uploading. I actually saw this when it was on Channel 4 back in the day.

Btw the guy behind the mixing desk is the actor who plays Giles in 'Buffy the Vampire Slayer'.

[josephus72]

And the Director of the video is the gay dad from "Extras"

[pauljefferson]

fucking brilliant

[hellcatmolly]

I can't believe I never saw this before.. and I love the guys from "The Young Ones" - this is brilliant!!

[Hesquito]

Funny stuff

[tonymontana1974]

WHERE ARE THE BOZOS ??? CMON SOMEBODY

[RobertCorbett]

Rik Mayall rules, I've met some real life Colin Gregsons in my time haha!!

[derangedband]

HAHA! ME TOO . my first bass player was just like colin-total poser who couldnt actually play (actually colin plays better than the guy we knew) ill never forget that feeling of accomplishment when we got a new bass player after! haha

[ronnieneo]

Collins a banker!

[lucifuri666]

I dont think the yanks would get this. They'd just go "They copied off Spinal Tap gaaawd demmit."

[juzt156]

They actually came a little bit before spinal tap. But Spinal tap was more famous.

[duncabbin]

pure class.

2 quid for One bloody sausage, dont come here

[AsiLayDying1314]

i lyk cheese

[deki6838]

[fasteddyuk]

Best band ever!

[bobster19691]

absolute quality. They should reform!! Saw em at Reading years ago soooo funny

[ZeroCorpse]

This version of the song is different from the album version.

Great video. Of course, I have the originals on VHS, but it's nice to see them here for everyone to discover Bad News.

[azerothsy]

CHINGIS KHAAN NOT GENGIS KHAN!

[m16m60]

yeah that's the bits I like!

[asphinkter1985]

The lyrics in this tune are amazing. Adrian and Rik are ledgends long may they live

[MayallFan35]

ok, how many people would kill to be Rik's guitar at the 3:14 mark? ;-)

MayallFan35

[Khazzrak]

i think it sounds pretty good

[dragonfitter]

i love how stupid they are exactly how heavy metalers behave

[LESMANIAdotcom]

SO poetical-politically incorrect... Sheer * utter bliss!

[inta98]

flashback, flashback!

[fishface321]

Hey I was there and you're exactly right. '86 I think it was and Ozzy was headlining. There were so many narrow minded twats who were disgusted 'cause Bad News were playing at a 'serious' rock festival. By the way...the Scorps stole the show.

[Jermyn78]

I used to work with a guy who was at THE Donington Monsters of Rock festival that Bad News played at. He is still bitter that they were allowed to play as he reckoned because they were a pisstake they shouldn't have been allowed up there!

[ecopunk66]

some people 'erm warlords' have got no sense of

humour!, the worst thing in life is to take anything toooooo seriously! all this i dooooo, i'll kill for you!

[purplechick717]

i love this scene

"whose that playing base"

and "no dennis you've got to look mean"

[nikehead1]

[OctoJan]

[chaosmagickteevee666]

[easynote789]

Hilarious- wish the current stuff on TV was as good as this

[dontevenbothermatey]

burning looting raping and a shooting!!! FUNNY AS FUCK.

[chaosmagickteevee666]
