Favourite?
A toss up between Billy Connolly & Eddie Izzard
I adore Julian Clary too - a very clever man, often overlooked
Of the current comics, I like Phil Wang
We have tickets to see him next April (fingers crossed) |

"I saw Alan Carr live once a few years back and I have to say I was crying with laughter.
I don’t really do jokes, I prefer being regaled with funny things that have happened to folk.
"
I saw him live in a pub years ago, before he was properly famous. I think he'd done 8 out of 10 cats a couple of times, but that was about all.
He was hilarious
I think Channel 4 has ruined his comedy, it comes across as just too scripted and forced |

I'm not sure how you smoke a tumbler of whisky
My favourite is Bill Bailey, we've been to see him live a couple of time and his shows are awesome.

I like Sarah Millican and would love to see her live.
John Bishop is good too.
Lee Evans is great live. I've seen Russell Howard a few times and he was great to begin with but started getting a bit repetitive. |

"Laurel and Hardy
They’re funnier than the majority of the shite around today. "
Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia is absolutely brilliant, especially the bit when Oliver tests the mallet on the bar before hitting Stan and then Stan's high pitch change in his signing! |

There and to the left a bit |
Billy Connolly
Robin Williams
Richard Pryor
Eddie Murphy
Of the old school superstar stand-ups
Of the lesser known..
Tim Vine
Bob Mills
And there was a very unique act I saw at Butlins one year who had me in tears and are worth keeping an eye out for..
Raymond & Mr Timpkins
An explanation of their act won't do them justice but it basically involves acting out songs and is hilarious

"..who's your favourite stand-up comedians, Mike Harding and Jasper Carrot for me, you?
"
For me Dave Chappelle by a country mile and in a league all by himself.
Bill Burr second.Pretty sure a lot of his material are verbatim conversations that occurred at one point or another.
Third, the rest.
For me, it is hard to argue anything Dave and Bill spout. |

Loved and still do love a lot of comedians, but the only one who used to physically hurt me from laughing is Lee Evans so he wins hands down haha |
