and the funniest is?.........

[HertzvanRental]

Was chatting with friends today , and the subject turned to funny people.

We were asked to pick one entertainer that we considered the most humourous.

Highly subjective, of course, but I had no hesitation in offering my candidate, Victor Borge.

 

[Markymark]

You rang?

In answer to your question either Rik Mayall or Eddie Izzard depending on my state of childishness.

 

[HertzvanRental]

Have you not found anyone funny since Victor Borge? Quelle damning indictment of the comedy industry.

Exactement!!!

Donald Trump

We are off to watch Milton Jones in November. I'll let you know.

I genuinely go through phases, not long ago it was Stewart Lee. At the moment I'm not sure... Doug Stanhope possibly. Not easy bedfellows I know.

Barry Humphreys has been funny for 40 years.

His "odd" sense of humour did amuse when he first hit the circuit, but I found his radio show a bit too smack in the mouth ( or American humour)

Barry Humphreys has been funny for 40 years.

Speaking of comedians named Barry, Barry Cryer has been funny for a very long time.

I'd have to toss a coin to decide between Limmy and Diane Morgan.

 

[nickyboy]

The Chuckle Brothers

 

[Spiderweb]

Past and present, Les Dawson & Peter Kay.

I like Limmy. Very dark humour, clearly not mainstream but still makes me laugh and squirm at the same time.

Arnold Brown. Hands down the funniest comedian I've ever seen. Few YouTube vids around, but you had to be alive in the seventies / eighties and happy to sit in some smoky dive in Glasgow or Edinburgh

If we're talking about old geezers that we would never admit are funny, but somehow they make you laugh in spite of yourself, then it has to be Ken Dodd.

I know what you mean
What a great day for sticking a cucumber through your neighbours letter box and shouting " the marsions are coming"
