Closest I've come to Edmonson is about 10 feet. Back in 1984 I was working at Midland Bank (as was) in High Holborn. Sara Dallin from Bananarama had an account with us & must have come in with him as he cashed a cheque (cant remember how much - think £10). He was Adrian Edmondson back then according to his cheque (probably still is for his bank accounts)
We also held the account for Paul Gadd too. Aka Gary Glitter. Didnt ever see him in the branch though.
Love how masicat was getting shit for bringing it up as like a claim to fame and yet Edmonson still brings it up to this day on national TV.
Ok, I'll bite. I know I shouldn't but hey ho. Somebody who has been assaulted may recount the incident as a story. It is different from the person who was guilty of the assault doing so. It was a long time ago so I assumed some contrition but no, it seems to be a badge of honour for the poster.

A guy I know poleaxed the singer from the view in a pub in Gillingham years ago. He was being a menace (Inhave no idea what he was doing in this place m, he must have liked shithole pubs)
I've not heard the singer tell the story yet but given this one took 30 years to come out ive got another 20 is years to wait for that
For what its worth Bottom used to have me in tears of laughter Eddie Hitler, Ritchie and Dave Hedgehog were amazingly well done and it was one of those comedies you couldn't recount or describe to someone who hadn't seen it, you had to watch it, never got to see them live which is a shame as I've only heard good things about that show

To this day "Gold, Frankenstein and Grrr" is still one of the greatest lines in British TV comedy.

That Christmas episode i remember being threatened with having the TV switched off as I was laughing so much and so loud.
Amazing how some of you choose to believe a tabloid story when it suits. I suspect you rarely do. So, the story ( which I did not bring up again ). Ade Edmondson stood up to do the raffle , and was very drunk. I was on a nearby table with a crowd that included my Mother and my partners young daughter. Edmondson starting by trying to get the audience to quiet down. He then shouted ‘ I NEED ALL YOU CUNTS TO SHUT UP BEFORE I START THE FUCKING RAFFLE ‘ ( or similar ). This continued for about 5 minutes and the audience started to boo. I walked to the side of the stage and told him to cut the swearing . He came off the stage and aggressively pushed me onto the main floor several times asking what I was going to do about it. He eventually went to hit me and I landed mine first. Security came on and helped him away. As I walked back to my table his wife walked towards me and tried to slap me ( also very pissed ), she caught my neck which bled. When I got back to my table, my old mum asked if I knew my neck was bleeding. Neither she, nor several others on our table were aware of the troubles that had just taken place. I stayed for the entire evening and left around 1am in the morning. Oddly, I won a prize in the raffle that was handled by Chris Tarrant. It appeared afterwards that Mr Edmondson done what he had done for publicity and I had fallen in to the trap. If something similar ever happened again I would do exactly the same.
So there you go. An opportunity now for those who can’t wait to make a sarcastic or humorous comment and the little followers to like the comments. Maybe I’m too old to feel I should explain myself, but there are a few arseholes on here so I just can’t help myself. I was just wondering what Edmondsons wife thought of his comments that were untrue and completely false. Maybe she has got used to them over the years. I collected my own raffle win, and Tarrant said ‘well done’ with a smirk on his face. That sums it up for me. I think this was about 25 years ago.
As you said you would do the same again Masicat, can you go to a Frankie Boyle Concert and wack him when he does the non joke about Harry Kane and what he sounds like when he speaks. Be careful though as mad Frankie Boyle will go for the two fingers in the eyes.

Eddie Hitler shaving his tongue before going on the pull - one of those life hacks you never see in books, oddly enough 😀
Sorry to rub it in, I went to the stage show around 2003, it really was good. Some of the ad libs were brilliant if cruel - Rik messed a line up and Eddie stood there and let it fester before asking "You fell off another Quad bike?"

As opposed to what else? That's his actual name isn't it?

Seems strange that he would do it for publicity, sounds like something he said to save face.

Probably sees it differently to be honest, I did a comedy set, some bloke got offended about people swearing at a stand up gig and punched me... two sides to every story etc!

Ade.
Isn't that like someone preferring to be called Dave but is actually David?

The ad lib at being born in Southampton (which I don’t believe he was) and yearning for change at one of the live shows was 5-10 minutes of pure comedy gold from the pair of them
