I prefer the observational stuff by the likes of Eddie Izzard and Jack Dee

Spike Milligan, not a comedian as such but one of the funniest people in the world ever.<br>
<br>
In an interview in 1998 he was asked "how long will you continue to write?" His answer; "I'll keep writing until I die, and after that I'll stop"<br>
<br>
What a genius.<br>

Ronnie Barker, Spike Milligan and Roy Chubby Brown, yes, he's as blue as a very blue thing thats blue, but he is funny.

Barker, though he was often just the voice (and dead pan face) for the writings of others he made it work.<br>

I love comedy!<br>
<br>
Agree with Adam re Peter Kay - his account of 'emergency' chairs at Christmas cracks me up!<br>
<br>
Robi<!--EZCODE BOLD START--><strong>n</strong><!--EZCODE BOLD END--> Williams (better known for his role as Mork on TV or for his film roles) is a fantastic stand-up comedian. If you've not seen it - get 'Live at the New York Met' out on dvd.<br>
<br>
Most things written by Ben Elton and Richard Curtis - Blackadder etc. Edmund Blackadder's character really appeals to my dry sense of humour (I have the book of the scripts at home).<br>
<br>
Oh; and Dave Allen R.I.P.

I would say Mohammed if it weren't so tragic...<br>
<br>
as its is I'd go for John Clesse and Eric Idle. The dead parrot sketch, starving architects and this ones an eater are all time classics. Rutland weekend television was a masterpiece and so was that film where he's the adopted son of an asian shopkeeper.<br>
<br>
I really like Sanjeev and the Kumars and smack the pony as well.<br>

Smack the Pony is very good, I would agree. Plus I really fancy one of them which is a bonus. Very much in the same vein as 'Big Train' which was on 5 or so years ago. I don't think it had a wide audience.<br>

Billy Connolly - although some new material would't go amiss.<br>
Peter Kay - good stand-up family entertainment and really good TV shows - Max and Paddy, Pheonix nights - classics of our times - almost up there with Fawlty Towers - Dad's Army!
