[JKiF]

i know GHA!

 

 

no Russ Abbot either....

 

 

Jeremy Hardy on Billy Connolly was great. "Then he did those lottery ads saying you may not be a millionaire on Tuesday but you could be one on Wednesday and i'm thinking fúck off you cúnt you're already a millionaire!"

[EFM The Firm, The Voice]

Where's Davidson, Chubby Brown, Manning, Hale, Pace, Cannon, Ball, Davro, Dennis (Les), Jethro, Reid, Bowen???????

[SteveP]

Actually one if the best stand ups I've seen was Robin Williams live on Broadway.. He only made 45.

 

I can live with Peter Cook being number 1, he was funny and a Spurs fan too.

 

Is Woody Allen really the third funniest of all time?

[Mark (Flag) Braintree]

Not a single woman comedian makes the top 50. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

 

Ignore that I mean, apart from Joan Rivers. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />and French & Saunders.

[Rob_the_Saint]

Jack Dee? Lee Evans? Harry Enfield? Paul Whitehouse? The list goes on...

 

Paul Whitehouse's 'Julio Geordio' interviews with John Motson were the funniest thing I've seen on TV for a long time.

[EFM The Firm, The Voice]

Because women aren't funny, it's a fact. All they can bang on about is periods and being lesbians!

 

Only one woman has ever made me laugh and thats Jo Brand .... and Kathy Burke sometimes.

[Mark (Flag) Braintree]

Agree, only Kathy Burke, as a funny woman, disagree on Jo Brand, her whole act is about cakes.

 

Where is : Bernard Manning. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
