  • Episode three: My First Bottom
    2024/03/19

    I go all the way back to 1994 to recall how the 10 year old me first stumbled across Bottom one Friday night.

    I discuss how waiting for Red Dwarf led me to Bottom, cheese on toast, the back flipping BBC2 icon, swimming lessons, a VHS of Apocalypse and how I don't actually remember which episode was my first Bottom.

    From marvelling at naughty words and cartoon violence to my very first crush, My First Bottom marks the start of my Bottom journey that has led me to becoming The Hammersmith Hardmen.

  • Episode one: Helen Lederer AKA Lady Natasha....
    2024/02/25

    In this debut episode of the Hammersmith Hardmen Present: My Bottom I have the complete honour of talking to someone who appeared in not one, but two episodes of Bottom....as two different characters.

    Helen Lederer will most likely be remembered by Bottom fans from her appearance in the episode Digger as Lady Natasha Letitia Sarah Jane Wellesley Obstromsky Ponsonsky Smythe Smythe Smythe Smythe Smythe Smythe Oblomov Boblomov Dob, Third Viscountess of Moldavia.

    In this very special first episode Helen talks me through her comedy career. From finding her way as a young female stand up comic, through her many television appearances and focussing on her roles in Bottom, to the current place in time as she gears up for the release of her memoir "Not That I'm Bitter" later this year.
