History WMG / Bottom

[[WMG: Richie is descended from more than one Series/{{Blackadder}} character.]]

[[WMG: Richie is descended from several Series/{{Blackadder}} characters.]]
The family line starts with Mad Gerald, who married Philip of Burgundy's sister to give rise to the [[TheAce Flashheart]] dynasty which combined Philip's dashing, devil-may-care attitude with Gerald's looks. At some point, though, one of the family married a Baldrick. Richie is descended from that particular union via several generations of inbreeding, the result being that he has ended up with the looks of the Flashhearts and the intelligence of the Baldricks, with some of his more loopy behaviour being a throwback to Mad Gerald himself.
* Meanwhile, [[Series/TheNewStatesman Alan B'Stard]] is the result of a Flashheart marrying a Blackadder.

At some point, though, one of the family married a Baldrick. Richie is descended from that particular union, having inherited the looks of the Flashhearts and the intelligence of the Baldricks, along with a few of Gerald's characteristics that had hitherto been dormant for several generationsz

Any resemblance to certain members of the much more distinguished [[TheAce Flashheart]] dynasty is purely coincidental.
* Unless one of them married a Baldrick...

ExtremeOmnivore tendencies? A violent streak a mile long? Sounds to me the two may be realated. Not even Vyvyan's own mum knows who his father is--it could work. The fact that they both have flatmates named Richard (Rick/Richie) who look alike is just pure coincidence.

[[WMG:The second woman in the Prime Minister's sex tape...]]

* Virginia Bottomley – SpittingImage were right❗

* Norma Major. She was in on it! John and Norma wanted to spice up things in the bedroom. They agreed that John could have a three-way (with Edwina as the third party) in return for Norma getting to, erm, ''dominate'' the most powerful man in the country.

Assuming that the PM in question is UsefulNotes/JohnMajor (then current at time of recording & broadcast, plus Eddie did a reasonably good voice impression of him [[note]] or rather, his ''Series/SpittingImage'' puppet ... oh, yes[[/note]]), revelations which came out in later years means that one of the women, as seen by Richie and Eddie on the sex tape they found in "Carnival", must be Edwina Curry. But who was the second...?

Assuming the PM in question is John Major, (then current at time of recording & broadcast.

* Norma Major: She was in on it! John + Norma wanted to spice up things in the bedroom. John would get two women to satisfy him only if Norma could be dominatrix over the most powerful man in the country.

In several episode endings like "Hole" and "Carnival" it is clearly shown that the duo died, yet they come back alive and well in the next episode. They both have the same superpower as Kenny, as everyone forgets their deaths and carry on as if nothing has happened. It could also explain how they survive extremely painful situations and heal from any injuries in a fast amount of time.

As part of the protection program, their names were changed. And the 'one bird' mentioned in 'S Up is Gina Carbonara from the film. During the events of their European tour, they wind up broke and end up having to live in Richie's aunt's flat.

At some point after TheYoungOnes, Rick and Vyvian are part of a witness protection scheme and change their names, Vyvian loses his hair or shaves it off after getting over his punk stage. This explains why their voices and personalities are very similar.
