Anybody got any favourites?  Ross Noble is probably the one I would like to go and see. 

 

  The sketch he did about fighting an invisble animal was hilarious.  The perfect volunteer being the Giant Panda so you can give him/her a second black eye to go with the one they already have! 

 

Take Care!

Saw Rhod Gilbert last week.  If there's a better stand up on the circuit at the moment then I've not seen him!

 

Watched "Believe", the biopic on Eddie Izzard tonight.  I expected it to be a tad self indulgent but it wasn't, it was very good.

What a huge amount of effort and perseverance he put in when he was younger before he made his breakthrough.

Rhod Gilbert is absolutley superb! His work experience programme he done for the beeb was superb

That show was a absolute joy to watch, had me in stitches every week.

Saw Arj Barker last weekend, was very poor IMO.  I'd never heard of him before, but apparently he sells out in the US and AUS.  Some of his observational stuff raised a chuckle.... but other than that I barely managed to crack a smile.

 

I saw him at the Fringe and really enjoyed his show. One of the best ones I saw actually.

I find rhod gilbert just a bit too shoutey and welsh to be honest.

 

But part of that is his "angry" act.

 

See Ben Elton c.1980s

Stewart Francis. Terrific.

I hate Lee Evans. Absolutely despise him. He's in the same league of annoying as Joe Pasquale.

Stewart Lee is superb

I liked that sketch, but in general I find him really dull.

Very much this. Stoney-esque annoyance. 

i only ever laughed once at Joe Pasquale - he made a gag about being dyslexic. He wanted to do karate, but ended up going to karaoke. Someone picked a fight with him, so he sang "tie a yellow ribbon round the old oak tree" at his attacker. Made me chuckle a little bit.

 

But Lee Evans is an irritating shit who tries to pass "I'm nervous as fuck, and I'm gonna sweat all over this stage" off as comedy.

Agree with the sentiments about Lee Evans. Fucking hate him. He's shite.

 

Got Frankie Boyle the night at the AECC! Looking forward to it but me girlfriend isnt! She thinks she might be too close to the bone!

Frankie tends to regurgitate a lot of his jokes. If you've seen him regularly on Mock The Week, you'll know half his material.

 

But he's still worthwhile for some of the stuff he comes out with

Katie Price, or whatever she calls herself these days, is a fan.

The Kevin Bridges Live DVD is excellent

Indeed. 

 

Saw him during the summer in Edinburgh, brilliant.

I think he spans a fair range of material and tastes

I'm not so convinced by Kevin Bridges.

 

Convinced?

So you think he isn't then.

Pretty resounding no then.

The Kevin Bridges Live DVD is excellent 

Had sore tummy laughing whilst watching that DVD, loved it!

Was she too close to the bone?! 

 

What did you, and your girlfriend, think of Frankie Boyle? I went to see him in Edinburgh a couple of months ago, and although some material was similar to his TV stuff, I thought he was hilarious. Then again, I do have a sick sense of humour! 

3 comedy awards for Miranda Hart 

3 comedy awards for Miranda Hart 

 

The comedy awards are nonsense, it's the same 4 or 5 people in every category every year. Miranda Hart only got her awards because it was basically her turn. And lets be honest, her program wouldn't win awards at the BAFTAS or any serious awards ceremony.
