Ones.

Oh look, a little girl...

Meditate on this.

The Young Ones is currently being shown (again) on BBC Anerica

That'll be America of course

We using the same keyboard today Mina/Linda?

My favourite ones are Sick, and Cash . In Sick I love the way Neil starts a riot in the street with his snotty sneeze, the bloke gets hit in the head and then asks the bloke next to him if he threw something... how could he have thrown it - he was stood next to him for God's sake! (Of course it's the Carling boys again!)

Hey Abs,

Just to let know that this entry has been scouted but before I process it, can you make the amendments as mentioned previously in this conversation?

Many Thanks.

Ashley

PS When it's been updated, can you let me know?

Hi Ashley,

I made the amendments a while ago but wanted to put a link in at the end to http://www.michael.phatcatz.net/awtv/Comedy/YoungOne.html but I couldn't get it to work. Do you think it still needs more detail?

Abs.

Hello Abs, & all, my favourite scene: Vyv loosing his head, when looking out of train window a classic for me. & didn't Rick, have a pet rodent, hamster or rat?

"and the people who deliver the ‘two-time poo’ in ‘Sick’ (Mick and Tez)"

It should be two ton, not two time.

Flood - even though there was no Musical guest on this episode the variety act was the Lion Taming act.

Please to be noting, the BBC funded The Young Ones under the Light Entertainment Budget hence them mostly getting money to have music acts ALMOST every week. Originally the show was touted to the BBC comedy department but they didn't want to make anything at the time of filming the 1st series. As Flood was the last episode in that series the budget had practically gone on all the previous episodes (didn't this seem obvious from the fact that the episode is all filmed pretty much inside the house?)

I thought it was the other way round. That they'd get more money from the LE budget which was why they put the acts in. Otherwise they's have to make do with comedy budget, which was smaller.

Mikes surname is give in the Batchelor Boys book as Thecoolperson.
Ricks surname is never mentioned any where ever that I have come across.
I have the original BBC vhs vids and the BBS US dvd (much better than the UK release) and an out-takes vid I bought off ebay, some very cool footage.

The stuff Jimster mentions such as My White Bicycle is off a LP Vinyl Record called "Neil's Heavy Concept Album", It's damn hard to find (and worth searching for on mp3). It mostly features nigel planer as neil covering old hippy tracks and dawn french gets a look in one track.
Also the track KEN appears in Neils Book Of The Dead. very easy to get hold of now. It might be worth mentioning the 2 Vyvian Books "how to be a complete bastard" and i can't find the other one to mention the title but it's more in the vein of "complete bastard".
The young ones was also an 8-bit computer game (you can pick 1 character to be and then you have to try and pick things up to move out of the house and the other 3 house mates controlled by the computer try to stop you. You can also switch characters and all the tv locations were featured in the game (example in the kitchen as viv "i think i'll smah the atom bomb"). Can someone PLEASE talk about the b-side of the Comic Relief Living Doll Single, I've heard little about ti and wnat to know more PLEASE PLEASE!

I was lent an outtakes video years ago. I thought it was boring!

The second Ade book by Vyv was called

The Complete Bastard's Book Of The Worst.
