Ricky Gervais

I’d go for Stewart Lee too, absolutely brilliant live.

Used to like Gervais, thought he was a lot funnier before he decided to just become David Brent himself though. Satire has always been a fine line with characters like that though.

I like Tim Vine, Stewart Francis, Louis CK, Lee Evans, Patrice O'Neal.. i like guys that try to make you laugh, can't understand the love for Stewart Lee to be honest, but I think I may to be too dumb to understand his comedy

Stewart Lee is making jokes about making jokes. He's like Bo Burnham without the Adderall addiction.

For jokes that make you feel wrong for laughing then Anthony Jesselink is gold and I hadn't already seen him mentioned here. The three specials that James Acaster has on Netflix are great if you're into call backs and gentle silliness.

Chris Morris.

Hasn’t done an awful lot recently but Brass Eye was extraordinary.

Right now we could do with another series given the state of politics and pop culture.

 

[Magicpole]

Billy Connolly, Frankie Boyle, Kevin Bridges and just to show I’m not a racist, Sean Lock and Micky Flanagan.

Russell Howard for me amazingly funny guy

I can’t believe I left him out. And McIntye. I’ve let everybody down.
