I used to love Lee evans, but he just uses the same material  these days.  Same goes for Peter Kay. 

My old man used to watch Freddy Starr all the time.  That guy has me in fits every time i see him

I've been to see lee Evans and he was so disapointing. So was dara o'brien.

Best comedians I've seen are rhod Gilbert, Russell Howard, and frankie boyle. Jimmy Carr was pretty good aswell.

Lee Evans just swears his way through gigs nowadays and they're far too long. Someone bought me his DVD for Crimbo a few years ago and it was about 3 hours long!

Bill Hicks

Bit old school for me but the disc of Jim Davidson doing his forces show from about 1996 for me is the funniest stand up I've seen.
Guess doing a show for a few thousand army troops made it extra relevant for some of his military gags. I think the show was called "With the Boys" or something like.

More recently the Robin Williams show from 2009? I think that was called "Weapons of Self Destruction".
His gags about getting a bovine heart valve was terrific "so he can now sh17 while standing up".
Also the fact he can mimic any voice and deliver jokes in that way makes me crack up laughing.

I can't believe no one has posted a Tommy Cooper sketch.

If the only thing stopping you from killing the mother f*cker is an episode of CSI.....you ain't ever been in love

Big Chris Rock fan also.. went to go see him at the 02 a couple of years back. It was toned down a little, but still had me in stitches! But for all those who like standup.... you just have to watch Richard Prior as said!! fecking amazing!!!

I couldn't see if the vid worked on my iPod, sorry. Yeah I have both seasons on DVD, plus the original radio series and the 1st album. Love it!

It was the radio series that got me into them! Very funny 

When I first heard them I didn't know they were so popular (especially in the US). I thought they were just a couple of nobodies with great talent.

Seen quite alot of their stuff now

Jack Dee-Emporium of Fizz is one of my favourites.

Talks about the magic which is 'Soda Stream'.

Always liked Jim Davidson, until he did a small gig for us in Cyprus.  We were cringing after a while, and he upset a few figian guys that were in the crowd with the non stop racism.

NOw everytime i watch him i think hes rubbish
