appreciation post for Lise Mayer!! she co-wrote The Young Ones (and The Bachelor Boys book, additional material like when they did Comic Relief, etc), which is well known. but she also wrote for other things in the alternative comedy scene like Rik Mayall and Ben Elton's comedy tour (source: BBC Breakfast Time interview)! and, something I didn't know until recently: she co-wrote/wrote for Kevin Turvey! she's not credited in his television appearances, but see below for sources.

i really loved the podcast episode she did with Alexei Sayle about TYO, you gain a lot of insight into her perspective! she also mentions misogynistic treatment like being asked to go make tea when they were doing script readings, not getting invited to a big BBC party because it was presumed she'd be Rik's plus-one, and getting groped at the BBC bar. it pissed me off on her behalf and partly prompted this post.

some specific accolades/accreditation/fun facts:

Rik crediting her with writing/conceiving the Kevin Turvey non-joke "All right, biting political satire: What do Lech Walesea and Menachem Begin have in common? They’ve both got foreign names! What do you mean it’s not funny?" (x)

Alexei Sayle in Thatcher Stole My Trousers crediting Lise with co-writing Turvey: "Lise was, like Linda for mine, a vital part of Rik’s career, co-writing both The Young Ones and Rik’s character Kevin Turvey..."

a 1987 source for Lise co-writing Turvey: "The assumption that women do not write comedy scripts was one with which Lise Mayer, co-writer of The Young Ones television series, has also had to contend. She started writing for Rik Mayall’s Kevin Turvey in the television series A Kick Up the Eighties..." (x)

Rowland Rivron (comedian who toured with The Comic Strip gang and lived with Rik and Lise) in What the f*** did I do last night?: "[Lise] also had the unenviable job of standing at the side of the stage when Rik was performing, and jotting down anything he said that was unscripted. If it got a laugh, it would be woven into the next night’s routine."

the only time i've ever seen a Rik Mayall/Ade Edmondson/Lise Mayer writing credit: for a poem called Distance which was collected in this anthology! Rik and Ade seem to have acted it out (or at least a version of it) in this 20th Century Coyote performance

Rik on Lise writing TYO: "‘She discovers different things: the comedy of embarrassment and awkwardness – she draws out the cheating and stealing that goes on in the house.’" (x) (Lise also says her "favorite comedy was always the comedy of embarrassment" in the Alexei Sayle podcast)

Rik: "... Lise Mayer wrote this great scene where I find a tampon in a handbag and it's my birthday party and I think it's a present because my character is Rick, who is such a git, he didn't know." (x)

Helen Lederer in Not That I'm Bitter, writing about being on The Young Ones: "[Lise] was known to be the brains behind it all, particularly the more surreal elements…"

she and Rik chose the bands (x)

Lise: “We’d have a table read at which point we’d discover that the script ran over an hour long, and then I’d have a sleepless night editing it.” Alexei: “You did that?” Lise: “Usually me, yeah…” (she later explains they'd present the script Monday and rehearsals were Tuesday, Wednesday-so she literally had one night to edit!) (x)

facts from the blu-ray commentary tracks:

Rick's yellow dungarees in Interesting were based off a picture of Lise in a similar pair

Lise wrote an essay about the tampon joke in Interesting so that the BBC didn't cut the scene (though they still edited it)

Paul Jackson (producer) credits Lise with arguing "you are seriously telling me that we cannot refer on television to something that happens to 50% of the population for about 30 years of their life? and we're not allowed to even refer to it" to make an executive back off about the tampon joke in a meeting

Lise came up with Neil's flowerpot covering in Nasty

Vyvyan/Vivian's name comes from Lise having lived in Vyvyan Terrace, Bristol

Lise thought of the cast switching costumes in Bambi (one of my favorite moments!!) (/end of commentary track facts)

this is guesswork, but i've seen Ben Elton and Rik Mayall's handwriting and i'm pretty sure the editing/handwriting on the bottom left on this script must be Lise's, which gives insight into what/how she wrote: (x)

i feel like it's easy for people to overlook or minimize Lise's impact, something that happens to female creators far too often. i hate when women's identities are framed around their association to a man-girlfriend to Rik in this case-which was the norm whenever i saw Lise discussed in articles/books/online discussions about TYO. it's important to know she was a writer and co-creator with her own identity and (underappreciated) contributions. The Young Ones (and Kevin Turvey, and things we don't even know she goes uncredited for) would not have been the same—or wouldn't have even existed—without her!

FloaPS!Nezha: *picks up his Wukong like a cat*

FloaPS!Wukong: *curls up in his arms and tries purring*

OG!Tang: "Isn't he heavy?"

FloaPS!Nezha: "Not in the slightest. He's lost a lot of weight due to being sick."

OG!Tang: "Really?"

F!Nezha: "Yes, really. Here, you hold him and see!"

OG!Tang: "Oh! I don't really think I'm strong enough to-"

*gets F!Wukong dropped into his arms*

OG!Tang: "OH MY GREAT SAGE, HE'S LIGHT AS A FEATHER!!!!!"

F!Nezha: "Told you. And don't yell so loudly, he's trying to go to sleep."

🥺🥺🥺 THE ATTEPMPTS TO PURR OMGSTABYABAJAC

The fact that OG!Tang of all people is able to pick him up, even with tubes and all, speaks volumes honestly. Is Wukong able to eat solids yet? Bc I have a feeling a certain Chef would be 100% ready to stuff him with food.

I also have an idea of Wukongs purrs setting off all the rest of the Cats/monkies. Lunar, all the Mac’s, Azure and the cubs, they all immediately try to mimic the purrs.

(Jing uses this opertunity to put the usually rowdy cubs down for a nap!)

wings or tails

"Take my wings!" Amy screams out suddenly, desperate. She didn't fully process her words until she had shouted them, but she didn't even think about taking them back. She meant it when she promised to do anything to keep Aster safe.

"What?" The bandit asks, eyes narrowing as he turns around to look at her. His grip on the kitsune's scruff tightens as he watches the half fairy's movements closely. Skeptical.

"It's money you want, right?" She asks, taking a breath before pointing to the crystal wings on her back. "Fairy wings are worth a lot, especially two in perfect condition. Maybe even more than a baby kitsune, I don't know. Just— give him back and take my wings. Please."

a bit of context: this is an au im calling woodland. amy is a half fairy/half mobian while aster(tails in this au) is a full kitsune

One question: what is (or would be) the ship name of Tsukasa Doumyouji/Tsukushi Makino?

I've seen ship names for their other language adaptation counterparts and I've seen a ship name for Soujirou/Yuuki (Soujiyuuki), but I've never seen a ship name for the main characters in the manga/anime/japanese adaptations.

I don't think they have a ship name??? Or at least I've never seen it. And I can't think of a nice sounding combination. Kasakushi? Doukino? TsuTsu? Makiyouji?? What do you suggest?

I wish my department wasn't so dependent on Facebook for many reasons, including the fact that the site is constantly shoving "relevant to your interests!!!" things at me, like dudebros whining about how Unfinished Tales isn't canon because it might in some way undermine their meltdowns over ROP Galadriel being too manly.
