Who would you rate...

[janzman]

...as your least funny comedian....old and new. A couple of mine to start with.
Older male...Jimmy Tarbuck-Lenny Henry
Newer male...Frankie Boyle....Lee Mack
Older female..Jo Brand...Sue Pollard
Newer female ...Miranda ?....dont know any more lol

[Buenchico]

I'll start by commenting on your list:

Jimmy Tarbuck - His act seemed out of date even when he started performing

Lenny Henry - An outstanding talent, with excellent stand-up comedy, in his early days. But he can't act (as anyone who has listened to 'Rudy's Rare Records' on the radio will testify) and he seems to have lost the plot when it comes to stand-up.

Frankie Boyle - Occasionally funny when a guest on QI but he has limited material and he fails to realise that an essential element of comedy is to surprise his audience. There's no surprise if you use a 4-letter word in every sentence, or if your material is otherwise totally predictable.

Lee Mack - Some of his stand-up routine is amusing but he definitely can't act!

Jo Brand - I quite like JB but her material doesn't seem to have evolved much over the years.

Sue Pollard - I don't think I've ever seen her do stand up. She was excellently cast in Hi-de-Hi but has looked out of place in other programmes.

Miranda Hart - Her stand-up routine is just about bearable but, again, she can't act.

My least funny comedians:
Vic Reeves, Bob Mortimer and Johnny Bloody Vegas!!!

roy chubby brown and jim davidson, both irritate me

[janzman]

Surprisingly out of all the names you've come up with as being unfunny,I only totally disagree with one nominee...Michael McIntyre...I think he's brilliant,
Thanks one and all for participating.

[Prudie]

The only one in your list I find really unfunny is Miranda. Her show was slapstick and childish (based on one episode). Just don't get her.

[Astonvanilla]

Not many comedians make me laugh all scripted, unfunny are Peter Kay, Michael Mc Intyre, Harry Hill, Rob Brydon etc etc did enjoy Billy Connolly in his early days on his TV shows but all rely too much on swearing. Showing my age by laughing at Tommy Cooper and Ken Dodd.

Benny Hill
Russell Kane
Jenny Eclair
Shappi Khorsandi

Don't like Chubby Brown.

[factor-fiction]

You can't beat Laurel and Hardy!
Funny without ever being crude

[4getmenot]

Out of your list I love lee mack, Jo Brand and Miranda and also have never thought of Sue Pollard as a comedian anyway.

Mine would be - Older Male - Roy chubby Brown, just sick really
Newer male - Russell Kane
Older Female - Faith Brown
Newer Female - Morgana Robinson, her sketch show was rubbish although she did get Fearne cotton impresion spot on

[tiggerblue10]

I think Miranda Hart is brilliant.

Stan Boardman, Roy Chubby Brown.
Johnny Vegas, Peter Kay.
Jenny Eclair, Sue Pollard.
Shappi Khorsandi

I don't watch much comedy I have to say. I find the "siller" especially facepulling ones irritating like Lee Evans, Harry Hill (though he has grown on me a little lately) and Jim Carrey in certain roles (even though I see him as a very clever actor in other things).

I loved Jasper Carrot, Billy Connolly and Ben Elton when he used to do standup. Went to see Lee Hirst too on a random free ticket and he was hysterical.

I find it interesting at some of the local comedy clubs round here that the comperes are often the cleverest and funniest comedians there including on warm up gigs for people like John Bishop and Justin Moorhouse.

Roy Chubby Brown makes my skin crawl, anyone with that kind of humour.

[Kerosene]

Michael McIntyre regardless. He is a supercilious, smug, unfunny individual.
