BRITISH actor and comedian Rik Mayall, who found fame in the cult series The Young Ones, has died aged 56.
The star, whose portrayal of puerile anarchist Rick in the BBC comedy endeared him to a generation of viewers in the 1980s, became one of Britain's best-known comic actors.
He also appeared in Blackadder alongside Rowan Atkinson, as a cynical politician in The New Statesman and was reunited with Young Ones co-star Ade Edmondson in Bottom.

In 1998, he survived a potentially fatal accident on a quad bike but had been working until recently.
Mayall's death was confirmed by his management company on Monday without further details.
