Whose yer fave?

I'm seeing Stephen K Amos this weekend.

My fave ever is probo Omad Djalili, though I'd be lying if I said I could spell his name.

Ricky Gervais for me. I know he's now a megastar, but he seems like a regular bloke who would be just as funny in a pub having a few beers with his mates. Bill Hicks was an eye-opening comedian for me years ago, and Frankie Boyle makes me piss myself because he says things that are so wrong but so funny.

Doesn't Ricky Gervais' laugh get on your nerves? It ruins An Idiot Abroad, and his film career is, well, disappointing. The Office = gold, his stand up = good, everything else = meh.

I like David Mitchell but he needs to do less chat shows and more Peep Show.

I went off Ricky Gervais after the Office until Idiot Abroad, which is brilliant. Carl Pilkington - v funny.

Phill Jupitus is a brilliant stand-up; Other faves include Tim Vine, Milton Jones and the wonderful Nina Conti - look her up on youtube if you've never seen any of her stuff.

Far and away the funniest live gig I ever saw was Pauly Shore at The Comedy Store on Sunset Boulevard (I'm sooooo L.A. baby afro ) around the mid 90's. Tiny venue, came out of there in genuine pain from laughing so much. I think he may still do gigs there now. His parents owned the Gaff if I remember rightly, too.

You know something?

You are far too intelligent to be an Exeter fan. Come and join the biggest and best club in Devon, we'd love to have you on board!


Glasses on for the next bit:

Sorry, came over all Aviva for a moment then. As you were

Too many to mention:
from Woody Allen to Les Dawson to Dave Allen to The Marx Brothers to Barry Cryer to Emo Phillips to Jo Brand to Morecambe & Wise to Bill Bailey to ...... depends on the mood. Oh, I better mention Tim Minchin or my daughter will kill me.

Thanks to this thread I have just spent the last hour revisiting Emo Phillips on youtube and watching Sarah Millican for the first time. Their voices are eerily similar....
