Greg Davies: Rik Mayall was a 'force of nature'

Comedian Greg Davies says it was a "dream" to play Rik Mayall's son in the television series Man Down.

Davies said the Young Ones star was "a force of nature" and could say more with a "cocked eyebrow" than most people can with a "whole range of facial expressions".

He said "I feel so privileged to have worked with him".

Rik Mayall died in June 2014.
