Bottom Live: The Big Number 2 Tour

Although i did tend to find it the weakest of the 4 live shows it was still very good. The duo never fail to make you laugh and their use of violence as comedy is just pure genius. If you have seen this then watch numbers 3 and 4 as well because they just get better and better. 9 out of 10

I've been a fan of BOTTOM and YOUNG ONES for years, since I was 11 to be exact (Im 20 now!!) and I hadnt seen nothing until I saw the BOTTOM LIVE videos!!!!

Okay the second one was a wee bit iffy for me but still I loved it!! The parrot was funny especially when everyone applauded and Ade says "Thats right give the lump of plastic an applause!!".

The way they improvise when something goes wrong (missing lines- Rik's speciality, tripping over wires, doors flying open) is PURE CLASSIC! The improvisation bits always crack me up, leaving me in utter stitches!!!

Go.....see.......now!!!

I have to say i watched this live in cardiff november 1995 and i laughed so loud Rik & Ade shouted back at me! i find bottom so funny i was in absolutely hysterics as soon as the opening theme tune kicked in. However i would say this is possibly the weakest of the series but there is so much chaos and mayhem in the prison scene you just wont give a damn! Highlight of the show is when the audience applauded Eddies pet parrot, in which Ade edmondson replies "Thats right, give a piece of plasic a round of applause we've been F*****g working our b******S off! tears were running down my face at this point and then Edmondson started hurling abuse in my direction! but lucky for me he was taking the mick of the taff bloke behind me who had spilt his drink all over himself.

In my opinion this is their second best live show surpassed only by Hooligan's Island. To sum up the plot, this line from the show says it all: "Stop turning everything dirty, will you, I'm trying to f**k the Queen!" - yes, that's the plot :D The first half of the show is great fun (God save the Quim, Eddie?) but it's the second half that really gets me in tears from laughter. Among other things you will in this half experience Ade getting kicked (for real) in the b******s by Rik (poor guy) which I must admit I giggle about every time. And the later scene with their girlfriends (well ... blow-up dolls, actually) gets me laughing just thinking about it. So if you in any shape or form are into vulgar humor, cricket bat violence and blow-up doll action, this is a show for you. Watch it now! 9/10

When these two guys get together you know your in for a great laugh.The way they have to improvise when one of them makes a mistake is just poor class.As with there other video's which I also think are excellent if you in a badmood and need a little bit of cheering up look no further.I think that this video is ALMOST as good as some of the second season episodes and i hope they get around to doing at least one more bottom video
