I like the brydon podcasts, but I've not heard that one. Thanks for that.

A good Adam Buxton podcast here with him.

Jim Jeffries

That and the Harry Enfield one were my listen whilst on the train to London yesterday, can recommend them both.

Just listened to the brydon/ Lee one. Very good.
I didn't realise it was gervaises actual lecturn that he used for the "says the unsayable" routine. Pmsl quality.
On the Enfield one next, another comedy great.

God at a party.
"Who's that in the pink shirt?"
"If you love me, sing me a song"
Brilliant

Don't know if this link works but I've found this Derek and Clive link featuring arguably the greatest comedian ever, Peter Cook.

 

[BlueMoonAcrossThePond]

My favorite: Ron White


Honorable mentions:

Eddie Izzard


Tim Minchin


Vincent Price - hugely underrated

 

[mancity2012_eamo]

Absolutely Brilliant.
I’d love to see how his mind works over a pint in the local.
LOL here on my own.

I’m tempted to put this one in one of the current political threads. Still deciding which one.

If you post that in the political threads you'll have the biggest wank-off in BM history considering most people who post on it consider America to be worse than Russia, Nazi Germany, China and shock horror Iran.

My mate did some work for Craig Cash at his Marple home, says he just sounds the same as in the Royle Family and Early

Early doors beats Royal Family easily imo. Those two coppers make me cry every time I watch it. You know what’s coming but how they do it is outstanding. Funny as

Saw Dan Tiernan at Castlefield bowl, he was the funniest man I've ever seen live. He will go on to bigger things.

Agree but it had the advantage of only having 2 series.
The first 2 seasons of the Royal family was top notch TV.
Early Doors must be the best British TV comedy of all time in my opinion.
Yet most of the general public have not watched it or have not heard of it.

Rosie Jones was recently voted best female British comedian ever above Eddie Izzard (seriously) and Victoria Wood

In no way on this earth does she beat Victoria Wood.

The nominations of genius and legend are too easily given out but Victoria Wood truely was a comedic genius and legend.

 

[Harlaching Sky Blue]

If you want a quick cheap cheering up and not very high brow comedy, you could do a lot worse than Tim Vine and Gary Delaney.
Oneliners all the way through but always cheers me up as some of it is just daft, childish but clever at the same time.

Just started watching reruns of the Two Ronnies, and I never realised just how brilliant Ronnie Barker was.

 

[I'm With Stupid]

In no way on this earth does she beat Victoria Wood.

The British public voted Mrs Brown's Boys the best comedy six times at the National Television Awards. That's who we're dealing with here.

I've got a book which is everything he ever wrote for television. Absolute genius

 

[LangleyBlue1970]

I used to like Chubby Brown when I was younger. Around 2016 I went to watch him live. What an absolute ****.

I quite like watching the clips of Paul Smith. Scouser who just rips people to shreds. He’s made it to the big time now.
