Is josh Widdecombe that unfunny twat on the last leg?

 

 

Anyway, to confirm we all like different stuff, I don't mind Millican, or Whitehall or some jug eared jock whose name I've forgotten

 

But none come close to Laurel and Hardy

If we're doing comedians and not just stand up - Vic and Bob can do no wrong as far as I'm concerned.

 

smell of was one of the greatest funniest things ever

 

bang bang and big night out also very good

 

but for me, never got into shooting stars like there other stuff

 

some of the sketches within it were very good mind

Aye, Shooting Stars was a bit too shouty, but I thought Catterick was their best series & very underrated.

 

Ricky Gervaise....don't like his stand up type stuff or the Office,  but thought Extras was very good.

There's loads.

 

Vic & Bob, Fast Show, Blackadder stuff like that growing up.  Surprised no-ones mentioned Peter Kay - he was funny once . . . Eddie Murphy's stand up and Richard Pryor from across the pond.

 

Lee Evans, Frankie Boyle, Gervais's early stuff and even Noel Fielding or Bill Bailey if I'm in the right mood.  Anything really, again all down to my mood; but overtly right on stuff gets on my tats.

 

Best FS sketch ever imo . . . (20s in)

Vic & Bob stand alone as the greatest comedy act I've ever known

 

I get they won't be to everyone's taste but whatever it is about them they make me laugh until pooh leaks out.

 

House of Fools was their weakest effort but they can be forgiven anything due to the sheer brilliance of Smell Of...

Chris Morris is a genius. So far head of the time. Day Today, Four Lions, Nathan Barley...

 

Forgot about him but you're right!  And don't forget the gigantic chicken growing farmer in Alan Partridge :) 

 

The Brass Eye special was/is possibly the greatest satire ever made.

 

and from Four Lions, 'I'm Paki Rambo!'  Quality

 

He's also my sister in laws (to be) uncle but never met him . . .
