Shame, I remember how close he got when he rolled a quad bike.

Sad news. One of the heroes of properly funny English TV when I was growing up. RIP.

"He died at home in London. The Metropolitan Police said the death was not believed to be suspicious.

They said they were called to reports of a sudden death of a man in his 50s at 13:19 BST on Monday, in Barnes in south west London.

London Ambulance Service said "a man, aged in his 50s, was pronounced dead at the scene"."

Sounds like a massive heart attack to me :(

Really sad, but he at least got quality life after being so close to death in 98. Rip.

It sucks the fucking big one as far as I'm concerned. Loved Mayall :(

Well, shit. 56 is no age. RIP

To be fair - he looked like he was carrying a fair bit of weight around his midriff - that kind of flabby body-fat thang...

...maybe if he was a keen cyclist eh? ;)

Was quite shocked when I heard the news earlier. 56 is no age to go. And so talented. He was not only a comic legend but a pretty fine actor too. RIP

Only know him from Bottom. Was on the telly years ago here in Denmark at very late hours. I watched it with my dad who didn't get the humour, but I was always will entertained.
