Bottom: The Scripts

Product Information

Currently however the scripts are executed one after the other, but this might change when Foundations/Specs/EventBasedInitramfs gets implemented.

In June 1990, a pilot episode was filmed which was later titled " Contest" and broadcast as part of the first series. Further problems over content came to light when filming began. Mayall recalled they were allowed three "bloodies" or "bloody hell"'s per episode, and arguments were often had with as many as twenty BBC executives who went on the set. [16] Some executives criticised the series for being sexist, but Mayall pointed out that they would have had more women on the show if they had not cut around twenty "shagging scenes" that were written, and argued that lesbian scenes were also removed. [17] After the first series was filmed in June and July 1991, Bottom was first announced in August, when the BBC reported that it had commissioned over 400 hours of new television programming for the upcoming autumn series. This included new productions from comics known at the Comic Strip in an attempt to attract viewers, with including Mayall and Edmondson for Bottom and Dawn French for Murder Most Horrid.
