This Blog was for Yesterday my net went out: TODAY Is Sunday ( Super Bowl Sunday) and I am going to miss IT >.<

So i decited to write a blog insted. This one is a 80's Flash Back Then and Now

THE YOUNG ONES :)

@scotty yelling

The Young Ones was a British sitcom, first broadcast in 1982, which ran for two series on BBC2. Its anarchic, offbeat humour helped bring alternative comedy to television in the 1980s and made household names of its writers and performers. Soon afterwards, it was shown on MTV, one of the first non-music television shows on the fledgling channel.

Adrian Edmondson aka Vyvyan Basterd
Very Metal

@scotty yelling

Vyvyan Basterd, billed here as "Ade") is your typical boy-next-door nihilist punk. His mother is a barmaid and former shoplifter, and has no idea who Vyv's father is. Prone to acts of extreme violence, especially against Neil and Rick, Vyvyan is the show's equivalent to the Tasmanian Devil. His pet hamster, SPG (Special Patrol Group), is often a target for his rage; at one point, Vyv even jams him in the toaster. SPG is very loyal despite this, and is even seen getting the best of Vyvyan occasionally (electrocuting him for a joke in one episode). He's a medical student, and - inexplicably - the most creative bloke of the four. He's dementedly inventive, and is known for coming up with unorthodox ways to fix things/relieve boredom/tear shit up:

He uses a severed leg - borrowed from the morgue - as a hood ornament for his car
Develops a potion that turns whoever drinks it into an axe-wielding maniac ("...it's basically a cure...for not being an axe-wielding maniac."), which he then hides (very inconspicuously) in a can of Coke.
Attaches a bomb to the doorbell, because he wanted to "pep it up a bit".
"Improves" a vacuum cleaner by adding a small car engine to it, then uses it to suck up the entire living room rug, the floor, and Neil's friend, Neil.
When the guys run low on money, Vyvyan borrows cups of sugar from a neighbor - to burn the cups for heat.
Pretends (with great success) to be pregnant, so he won't be forced to work

He is apparently indestructible, evident in the fact that he has had a pick-axe driven through his skull, been decapitated after sticking his head out of a train window (upon finding his head, his body kicks it around like a soccer ball), and is seen repeatedly using his head as a battering ram. He is also shown being willing and able to eat/drink anything, including the television (to avoid getting caught for not paying their TV license), and a frothy, steaming blue drink that makes his hair fall out (revealing a "666" tattoo).
Vyvyan is shown to be somewhat interested in women, and even tries to impress a few of them at a party by showing them how many "press-ups" he can do (he suspiciously appears to be dry-humping the floor). However, he admits to being a virgin ("...unless snogging SPG counts") to escape the clutches of the vampire mentioned above.
Vyvyan beats Neil up when he's pissed off/bored, but obviously takes greater pleasure in antagonizing/torturing Rick. This may be due to Rick's hypocritical "revolutionary" posturing, or it could be just because Rick is "a complete bastard", and a "poof". Either way, it's completely justified.

@scotty yelling

Vyvyan owns a Glaswegian hamster named Special Patrol Group ("SPG" for short) of whom he is very fond, although SPG is also frequently subjected to Vyvyan's extreme violence, although it is usually provoked, such as when SPG bit Vyvyan and made him destroy his cardboard submarine in "Flood" or plugging in the TV after Vyvyan swallowed it in "Bomb".

Rik Mayall aka Rick

@scotty yelling

Rick (no last name is ever given) was played byRic Mayall(of Drop Dead Fred "fame"), and - despite his belief that he's "the most popular member of the house" - is the least-liked person of the group. He "self-proclaims" a number of things, including:

Being an anarchist/Leninist (depending on his needs/motives at a given moment)
Being a vegetarian and agnostic
Being "the People's Poet"/"spokesperson for a generation"
Being of the working class - though it's revealed that he's from an upperclass, Conservative family (much like Neil)

Rik is studying either sociology or domestic sciences (whatever the hell that is), and is shown at the end of the series to have the lowest grade-point average of the group. He's seriously attention-starved, and tries to impress everyone (especially Mike) with his (non-existent) wit and humor. When it's revealed very plainly that the other guys hate him, he attempts suicide by downing a whole bottle of laxatives. He's extremely reactionary, and is known to throw child-like tantrums with little provocation. To compensate for his (much-deserved) emasculation at the hands of Vyvyan, Rick often verbally (and sometimes physically) assaults Neil - the member of the group least likely to retaliate. Despite being a self-absorbed "bottom-burp", Rick is occasionally shown to have a bit of a spine:

To prevent City Coucil from tearing down the house, he ties himself to a crucifix in the front lawn, and recites an impromptu poem.
He attempts to blackmail Margaret Thatcher into "doing something for the kids - this afternoon", by threatening to blow up England with the atomic bomb that's landed in the kitchen. Not altogether a bad plan, but he attempted to contact her by sending a telegram from the DHSS (the UK equivalent of the Social Security office).
To protest his (and Neil's) treatment at the hands of Vyvyan and Mike's "oil coalition", he stages a worker's revolution, complete with a benefit concert in the living room.
After Vyvyan crashes his car (in the midst of the group's bank-robbery attempt), Rick steals a double-decker bus for all of them to escape in.

Most of the time, though, Rick can be relied upon to be pretty damned naive/stupid. For example, at a party held by the boys, he mistakes a tampon for a telescope/sponge, and proceeds to dip it into someone's drink. In one episode, it's hinted that Rick might be a closet transvestite: Neil, unable to get into his own room for clothes, borrows the only thing he could find in Rick's dresser - a little blue dress, complete with his name stenciled inside it.

Because of these things, and much more, Rick will likely never get laid - at one point, he is even forced by Vyvyan to wear a sign declaring "I am a virgin". The closest this spotty bastard gets to sex is when he wakes up to find Helen Mucous in his bed (she didn't know he was there); otherwise, he masturbates to Cosmopolitan.

@scotty yelling

Rick exaggerates or lies about his political activism and class background and is exposed in the final episode "Summer Holiday", when it is suggested he comes from an upper class, Conservative background. He seems to also be a closet transvestite, as Neil finds a dress in Rick's closet with his own name stitched on it in the episode "Nasty". In the episode "Cash" Rick admits to Mike that he is unable to tell the time, a trait that both he and Vyvyan share.

Nigel Planer aka Neil Wheedon Watkins Pye

@scotty yelling

Neil Pye is the pacifist vegetarian ("Vegetable Rights and Peace, man!") hippie of the four, and is the target of frequent abuse by Vyvyan and Rick. He is revealed to come from a conservative, upper-class upbringing, and is a source of shame for his parents (for starring on such a despicable show). Forced to do all the housework, as well as the shopping and answering the phone, Neil is perpetually depressed, and occasionally suicidal. Generally (rightfully) ignored by the others (unless the housework is neglected), Neil is the hapless recipient of some of the worst misfortune experienced by the group:

When he sneezes, either an explosion occurs, or he "projectile"-sneezes lines of snot all over the place. In one instance of the latter, Vyvyan saves the day by nailing a laundry bag to Neil's head.
When the boys run low on money, Neil is forced by the others to work (despite his "alternative lifestyle" excuse), first attempting to join the army (he gets tossed out of the recruiting office for admitting to being a pacifist), then successfully joining the police force.
Neil dreams that the guys throw a party, which ends in a calamitous brawl, and he (naturally) receives the worst beating. In keeping with his usual luck, he wakes up from THAT dream, right before having his head kicked in by three of Vyvyan's friends
Last in line on "bath day", Neil is forced to bathe in a thick brown muck, as nobody else has bothered to change the water in a week and a half.

Neil is not very well-liked (nobody likes emo hippies), except by his two known "real" friends, Neil (heavy!) and Warlock - who are also dirty, drug-addled hippies. Neil doesn't show any obvious interest in women (or sex, for that matter), and the closest he's ever shown to getting any action is when he's forced to use his boner to hold up a flower-pot, so he can answer the phone.

@scotty yelling

Neil wants the others to feel sorry for him, or just acknowledge his presence. He claims "the most interesting thing that ever happens to me is sneezing" - the force of which is sufficient to blow a door off its hinges.

Christopher Ryan akc MIKE "The-Cool-Person"

@scotty yelling

Mike Thecoolperson is essentially the leader of the group, basically because he's the only one who isn't completely bat-shit insane. He is, however, almost a ~~midget~~ little person, and more than a little shady. He's quite the opportunist, and is always looking for new ways to make easy money. Some of Mike's schemes have included:

Blackmailing his tutor and the Dean of the school for grants and passing grades
Establishing a fascist coalition with Vyvyan, to force Rick and Neil to work the "oil mine" Vyvyan discovered in the house
Attempting to sell an undetonated atomic bomb (that landed in the kitchen) to an arms dealer
Having discovered that Buddy Holly has not, in fact, died, but has been hanging upside-down in an upstairs bedroom for three decades (subsisting on English beetles), Mike begins calculating his cut of the royalties sure to pour in from new Holly records
Opening a roller-disco in Rick's room .

Mike is supposedly the lady's man of the group, but is never seen with any women, save for the blow-up doll that he sleeps with. He does make the effort to perpetuate his "reputation" by scattering bras and panties around his bedroom, and making a tape of what we are to believe to be aural proof of his having a snog. The closest he gets to any "action" is when Helen Mucous (a mass-murderer who snuck into the house) attempted to smother him with a pillow. At one point in the second series, he is even forced to admit his virginity, lest he fall prey to the vampire who arrived via 2nd-class post.

Even when he's seemingly preoccupied (keeping the peace between the other three, or completely ignoring them), Mike can always be counted on for a casual double-entendre, obvious pun, or narrating his activities in the third-person.

@scotty yelling

A con artist, he always has some kind of plan to make quick money such as renting out Rick's bedroom as a roller disco and soliciting bids for the unexploded Atomic bomb that fell into the house. Mike attends Scumbag College only nominally as he has blackmailed his tutor and the Dean of the school for grants and apparently passing grades, although this is contradicted by the title sequence of series 1, in which he is seen to pay a bribe in exchange for a qualification. In "Summer Holiday" he muses; "I think I'll ask for one of those Ph.D.s next year."

Funny Quotes:
Neil: How many people does it take to screw in a lightbulb? One, me, 'cause I'm the only one that does anything around here anyway!

Vivian:
Vivien, Vivien, Vivien. Every time something blows up in this house its always bloody Vivien.

Rick:
We NEVER clean the toilet, Neil! That's what being a student is all about! No way, Harpic! No way, Dot! All that Blue Loo scene is for squares. One thing's for sure, Neil. When Cliff Richard wrote "Wired for Sound", no way was he sitting on a clean lavatory! He was living on the limit, just like me. Where the only place to put bleach is in your hair!

Mike:
Don't panic. Don't panic! Worse things happen at sea. ... Well, like, you could be on a nice cruise in the South China Sea, having a lovely time. There's terrible weather, a big storm, and the ship sinks. You fall overboard, you're drowning! This big shark swims up to you and says, "By the way, Neil's parents are coming to tea in 30 seconds." That's when you panic. Come on!

In the final episode, the four students steal a red AEC Routemaster after
robbing a bank, only to drive it through a billboard with a picture of Cliff
Richard on it and then over an actual cliff, which the bus rolls down until
it comes to rest at the bottom, completely upright - at which point they
proclaim - in unison - "Phew! That was close!", after which the bus bursts
into flames.
NEIL'S BOOK OF THE DEAD
=========================

@scotty yelling

A sort of parody of the Tibetan Book of the Dead. The book was
basically Neil's philosophy of life and a guide to living a Neil-like hippyish alternative-lifestyle. It featured such things as a guide to determining your health through urine color; Neil'sreminiscences of his first drug experience; some quasi-pagan rituals; and how to write a job application that will guarantee you don't get hired.

Trivia
The Def Leppard video to the hit single Me And My Wine from the early 1980's
parodies the TV series with rock band members playing the roles of the TV
characters.

The Young Ones computer game

@scotty yelling

Here is The Advert :)

@scotty yelling

The Young Ones is a video game based on the British comedy television
series, The Young Ones.
The game takes place in the students' house. The player can choose to play
as either Mike, Neil, Vyvyan or Rick which then you explore the house and
enter different rooms. The other characters become computer controlled
players. All characters can move around the house, pick up and drop objects,
as well as break and fix things. The characters often talk, giving your
player clues as to what the character intends to do.
The aim of the game is to try and move out of the house with all your
character's belongings in the shortest time possible. This is not so easy
because your possessions are typically not in their preferred condition, or
are hidden around the house, and you will need various tools to get to them.
The other characters will move around the house, behaving in-character,
occasionally moving all your possessions around, and occasionally damaging
them - making your life harder.
