Julie Walter’s steals the show in Dinnerladies absolutely brilliant and when she turns up with Jimmie Krankie ha ha

Julie Walters was perfect for Victoria Wood sketches. I dare say that neither of them would be anywhere near as well known, or welll loved, had it not been for the other.

Used to love Mick Miller's opening gag "I lost my hair at 16. What a game of cards that was".

Last time I seen him was at a student gig and they loved him

Still touring so worth another visit to his show!

Maybe if I could understand a word she was saying she might have a chance but when I can tell it’s just shit, tbh Victoria Wood is the only decent female comedian I can think of, Dinnerladies is genius.

Victoria Wood is the exception that proves the rule: female comedians are shite.

Caroline Aherne was superb too.

I haven't watched anything from MF following his story about how rich he is and his hall way was full of £50 pound notes, he needed a leaf blower to get through them. He was pissed off when he found a £10 pound note. A gobshite and a wanker monologue.

I think he was taking the piss mate.

I don’t mind Sarah Millican.

Is Diane Morgan considered a comedian? She's decent.

Jennifer Saunders was a very good comedy actress I thought, if not a true stand up.
(And yes, I would have, back in the day).

She's brilliant, just watched all the Mandy eps on iplayer.

Difference between a comedian and a comedy actor imho.

Anyhow best comedian Sean Lock

Beat comedy actor Sellers/Wilder

Loved Sean Lock, obv best known for stand up but also did a lot of comedy acting.
He's in an episode of Mandy where she gives him a fish pedicure with piranhas. Also in Ideal where he's one of them transformers with tits.

Always liked Bob Monkhouse

 

[Ballymagash Blue]

Always liked Bob Monkhouse

Wasn’t it him who joked, ‘They laughed when I said I was going to be a comedian. Well, they’re not laughing now!’

 

[madloaf]

It's coogan for me.

Mitch Hedberg & Dimitri Martin for low energy comedy as no one else has mentioned them. John Mulaney's "horse loose in the hospital" is the perfect trump joke.

Yes,
His timing was quite brilliant
And when he was diagnosed
He said his Funeral Director put his
Picture in their window
And Below

For me, nobody has ever beaten Sean Lock. “That’s a challenging wank.”
Milton Jones is pretty good. Film trailer: “And now, a tale of a great African city; from the makers of Timbuck One…..”
