‘We had to cut Rik Mayall’s ejaculation scene’: Adrian Edmondson and Ed Bye on Bottom (www.theguardian.com)

Ade and Rik worked by knowing what you could get away with – and then pushing the boundaries. I did have some problems with BBC executives at the end of the whole process, and had to cut a scene where Rik pre-ejaculates. Well, I didn’t cut it out, I just chose different shots so that you could see less of Rik.

I watched Hotel Paradiso a month or so ago because my Wife said we should watch it then promptly fell asleep 10 minutes in like she usually does.

It was shit.

I really like Bottom though.
