@IanCullen1975

@@TheTsar1918 Sure, from Wikipedia: In 1995, Stephen Fry famously walked out of the play near the start of its West End run, after his performance received a bad review in the Financial Times. It was reported at the time that he suffered an attack of stage fright, but he has since disclosed that it was bipolar disorder. Fry walked out of the production for good, leaving only an apology, and provoking its early closure. Simon Gray described Fry's action as "cowardly", and in a statement to the press said: "It is disgraceful that so much media attention has been devoted to this squalid little story ... I confess my own failure as a director was to have cast Stephen Fry in the first place, and in the second place, not to have acknowledged my error by requesting his departure after his (self-proclaimed) inadequacies were abundantly clear to me." In response to the suggestion his reaction was insensitive to Fry's predicament, Gray added: "I'm a friend of Stephen's. I have great sympathy because he was hurt and stressed, but what he left behind him was the most awful chaos and distress for other people who loved him, including me." Fry went missing, travelling to Belgium, and contemplating suicide. His personal website says, "The experience still haunts him, but the depression has now faded to embarrassment and the anger to forgiveness." The incident would be humorously referenced shortly after in Bottom Live: The Big Number Two Tour, in which Rik Mayall also starred; during a moment in the second act of the show where Mayall breaks character and jokingly mocks Oxford following a heckler shouting "have a wank", Adrian Edmondson also breaks character to ask Mayall if he had finished, and states he was "beginning to understand why Steven Fry fucked off", jokingly implying Mayall had a hand in Fry leaving. The joke received a loud laughter and applause from the audience watching, while Mayall's reaction was to bow down to Edmonson's improvised joke.

Ade is doing the gag where he's escaping with the shows takings, the light comes back on and he's holding a comedy prop bag with cash spilling out the sides. In the dvd it goes fine but for some reason on that night, Rik just corpsed on stage from it. He was giggling for about 2 mins, with that super infectious laughter. Everyone is wheezing, including me, and Ade turns to the audience and says "I should do a new one man show, Eddie and The Bag!"

In Birmingham around October 2001 when I was 17 during the Arse Oddity tour and in Oxford around November 2003 when I was 19 during the Weapons Grade Y-Fronts tour. I remember the latter a lot more than the former - I was with my dad and we were third row from the front. Which meant we could see all the slapstick and fucking up of their lines 🤣 When Rik came on stage, the crowd exploded. They got louder when Ade appeared. It was that loud that night. I also remember picking up a shirt that read "If I’m unconscious, please leave me alone" and wore it the next day to college. The weird looks I got from the chavs was worth it 🤣

Rik kept looking at us....probably because there were at least 4 clear rows between us and the next people watching. Many times I could see Rik look at us, see me smiling or laughing, and he started losing it also. I wanted to meet up backstage or in the lounge, but he wasn't around long.
