Greg davies.The bloated corpse of rik mayall

[ThePinkBinks]

I think I'm going to think of that every time I see Greg in future. lol :)

But technically Rik IS his own corpse - he was dead for 5 days when he had his accident so now he's a zombie.

No offence to rik Who I adore by the way but I think greg is prob slimmer then him at the mo as he has put a good bit of weight on age has not been too kind to him but he's still a sexy bastard if I do say so myself

[thedking987]

Met him at work, great guy

[TheSteelStallion]

Hardly a horrible hurtful gag. He does look quite a bit like Rik Mayall, sometimes even thought it was him doing stand up for a few seconds a few times.

[satchfan2010]

I have just discovered his name, my god, does this guy look like Rik Mayall, the resemblance is uncanny.

[geoffdoor]

rik mayall and greg davies should do a television special together you pair of cunts

[MrRoyboy96]

Two mr gilberts in one room

@MrMadness87

he probably did since they know each other and probably came up with some of the stuff together.

I love Rhod and Greg's relationship, it's adorable. One of the "Rhod Gilbert's Best Bits" podcasts from a couple of weeks ago was just Rhod, Greg and Lloyd chatting for 40 minutes and it was the funniest thing I've ever heard! I've listened to it about 20 times. They are just too cute.

@happeninholly If you google jon richardson podcast, you'll find hours and hours of jon richardson and russell howard taking the piss out of eachother. I think you'll enjoy that.

[happeninholly]

@Speakersoxx How refreshing to read a reply on Youtube that's not just abuse or pure trolling. I'm genuinely surprised and pleased! Thank you for the suggestion; I am a fan of both Jon Richardson and Russell Howard, so I will definitely check out that podcast. :)

[xColbert]

rhod and greg have known each other for 10 years, they are both absolutley amazing!

[TulilaSalome]

It seems everyone in the team gets it instantly - and yes I thought he was Rik Mayall, when he was on the telly recently. Sorry to both of them.

[Dendiol]

So so funny!

[judiecakes]

I love how Greg gets it before the audience and giggles.

[MrMadness87]

@judiecakes i know, it's as if rhod's told him this before and he knew what was coming :)

[ne0ge0]

@MrMadness87 He may have read the autocue quicker than Rhod...

[tfrlynn]

@MrMadness87 Its cos we are klang the comedy trio greg was in used to call him that on stage in their act

[Maytals500]

@judiecakes it's Greg's own joke

[penisfuckeye]

ha he really does

[scaryninja1693]

Rik Mayall did voice over work for a video game called Hogs of War on the PS1. So many memories, what a brilliantly funny game it was.

[CrapTurret94]

The Young Ones FTW.

[DIGIxPUNKx1996]

He does... except Rik Mayall = Sexier

[caroegc]

Is he in 'pain men' in Balls of Steel?

[MrMadness87]

@caroegc haha no, the pain men are pritchard and pancho from dirty sanchez :)

[range88]

@MrMadness87 All these Welsh people look the same to me...

[viperswhip]

If you watched the whole episode it's very clear that Rhod and Greg are very good friends. It's pretty damned funny.

[PurpleFunnyChocolate]

OMG I can totally see it now, he does!

Well, that makes him more awesome than before.

[ChazJayHeaton]

is that...the dude from inbetweeners? he scares me x3

he's like million ft tall

[MayallFan35]

ok so which one is it thats supposed to look like THE GREAT ONE? and i dont' like that comment, the bloated corpse of RIk Mayall either. stupid wanker. >:-(

[leaz182]

@MayallFan35 He is talking about the man at 0:15 Tami.

[MayallFan35]

@leaz182 i watched the young ones on mtv in the 80s. :-)

[MrMadness87]

@MayallFan35 never thought an american would even know who rik mayall was!

[countingdown27]

@MrMadness87 Canadians do too... I'm actually going thru series 2 of Bottom.... good stuff hehehehe ;)

[vdelrio999]

@MrMadness87 We love Rik Mayall!

[falloutboyhero]

@MrMadness87 Well he was in Drop Dead Fred.

[thagrammarnazi]

@MrMadness87 Most Americans I talk to know him as "the annoying fucker from 'drop dead Fred'" lol.

[GitarStu]

@MayallFan35 They are actually really good mates, so it's probably been an in joke with them. And he does really look like Rik too.

[MayallFan35]

@GitarStu hmmm ok well i guess it's ok then. :-) and im sorry i just don't see it. sorry.

[GitarStu]

@MayallFan35 You're kidding, right? You must be the only person who's ever looked at him who also knows who Rik is and not noticed the striking similarities. They could be brothers!!

[MayallFan35]

@GitarStu i've tried to see it but it's just not there, for me anyway. sorry dude. :-) but i'm glad he and rik are mates though, thats' awesome. :-)

[ThePinkBinks]

@GitarStu Actually I never noticed the similarity either. But I didn't think there was much when Greg was younger so maybe the slow changes didn't register with me. *shrug* Maybe I'm just slow. :-p

[ThePinkBinks]

@MayallFan35 I know this is an old post but Greg and Rhod are really close friends off-screen and they're always taking the mick out of each other. Plus, if you think about what kind of comedy Rik Mayall always did (plus the guys making the joke are both TV comediens too like Rik too) I don't see the offence. I *doubt* Rik would find it offensive so you don't need to either. ;) Mind you I see no offence to Rik in that joke regardless (the only offence was to Greg, who liked it). :)
