I came up with a theory that Vyvyan changed his name because he got sick of it being called a girl's name. And Rick changed his to Richie because he was sick of being called PRick. Eddie changed his surname from Basterd to Hitler because he wanted "a less problematic surname"...😂

I actually totally agree! Richie tried to be famous and failed so they moved into the house in Bottom and eventually admitted defeat so just kicked the s*** out of each other forever more 😂

I think the underlying issue was the way it really p****d off Bruce Forsyth and especially Jimmy Tarbuck who, to this day is quite angry about it. The entire series was only ever shown once on the BBC. Fortunately I videoed them all. It followed The Young Ones which was too difficult to beat. Filthy, Rich & Catflap wasn’t that good but it’s worth a watch.

I watched this when it came out and thought it was genius straight away. It's a dull thing to say but me and three mates would go down the pub all weekend and quote this to each other. I can't look at Eddie Catflap without thinking of my old mate Kev, who had all the facial mannerisms down to a T. So much of it made it into our daily language. Don't get me wrong - Young Ones & Bottom are brilliant but this beats them hands down. I still have a great urge to walk through my front door, hurl a pint glass into the air and jump up to headbutt it as it falls to the ground. Maybe one day...
