Hi JK04, I have a few.

Peter Kay makes me laugh a lot, hau, but it's a shame he's had no new material in a couple of years really.

I do like Bill Bailey too, and I love Noel Fielding and Julian Barratt (The Mighty Boosh).

Still think Morecambe and Wise were brilliant, and the Two Ronnies too.

Billy Connolly - Evil Scotsman

Check out Bill Hicks on youtube, theres tons of clips.
He was a fantastic comedian in the 90's but he died from pancreatic cancer at 32, his stuff is still really relevant to whats happening today though in a dark sort of way!

The late great Scottish comedian 'Chick Murray' was a favourite of mine, his humour was as dry as a stick, unfortunately there are no 'youtube' links, however, here is my favourite anecdote from him:
I was walking home from the pub in Edinburgh with a half bottle o whisky in my back pocket, I fell down some steps at the train station and landed on my 4rse, I could feel liquid on the back of my leg and I thought "Christ, I hope that's blood!!!"

When I got up the next morning my wife said "you were drunk last night" I said "how did you know, did you hear me come in"
She said "no, there is a plaster stuck on the bathroom mirror"


Think about it!

[JK04]

4GS, LOL, That was good!

Steg -cheers -it is Dennis Leary -he's a kinda yank version of Billy -he doent pull any punches and is not PC -he is brilliant.

I loved Tommy Cooper. I actually saw him collapse on stage. It was very very sad but he died making people laugh which is probably what he would have wanted. He was such a funny man.
