    For me right now, Stephen K Amos is my favourite. Seen him live three times now, great guy.

    Least funny is Miranda in her series “Miranda” – my message to her: stick to,stand up love, it suits you much better!

    I’m mostly loving Rhod Gilbert at the moment.

    Dunno as I have a ‘least favourite’. I tend to ignore the ones I don’t like.

    Love – Frank Skinner & Stuart Lee

    Hate – John Bishop & Paddy McGuiness

    Currently like John Bishop but he is appearing too much on TV and that play he did at Xmas, The Panto maybe, lost him a lot of credit.

    Worst is Miranda get her off the TV and any form of entertainment just awful.

    Best: Bill Hicks R.I.P.
    Worst: Fat bag Miranda. Why does being fat stupid and clumsy make you funny. If this was true walking down the local high street would be hilarious.

    Current Fav – Greg Davies – Saw him live last year…weren’t sure what to expect but found him very funny and a genuinely affable chap

    Current Least Fav – Katherine Ryan – She been on Mock The Week, 8 Out Of 10 Cats etc recently. Not funny imo

    Is Frankie Boyle a comedian? I thought comedians were meant to be funny.

    Bestest – Barry Cryer, Tim B-T and Graeme Garden. And Colin Sell, of course.

    Favourite – David Sedaris.
    Or if stand up, Stewart Francis, Tim Vine or Kevin Bridges.
    And I like Miranda. 😀

    Least favourite – Sarah Millican.
    She’s ok, but she’s been on every single TV programme for the last 3 years.
    Can’t stand Frankie Boyle, Jimmy Carr, Michael Macintyre, Russell Howard, Andy Parsons or Chris Addison.

    I can’t believe nobody has yet suggested Brendan O’Carroll as the worst.

    The worst is clearly Andrew Dice Clay and anyone who nominates anyone else clearly hasn’t been unfortunate enough to have seen even a minute of his material.

    Best is tricky. Lots to choose from.

    If I met John Bishop I’d probably shoot him in the face (but then I have a pathological hatred of anything from Merseyside). If he was with Michael Macintyre, I’d stripe ’em both. Then Frankie Boyle.

    However, I would let Ross Noble, Lee Mack and Al Murray bring me tea and biscuits.

    Most: Henning Wehn

    – really? Heard him a couple of times on R4, and just don’t get it?

    Best, mmmm so many to choose from and echo a lot of the above. On reflection, Bill Hicks, Rhod Gilbert, Jimmy Carr, Sean White to name a few.

    Liking, Stewart Francis, Shaun Lock, Bill Hicks (when he was still with us), Jack Dee in his hay day.
    Not so keen on, Michael Macintyre, Russell Howard, Shappi…

    Harry Hill is awful, had the misfortune to see him before his Fame with TV, biggist laugh was a heckler telling him as he walked off stage, to ‘get a haircut’

    Another fan of Frank Skinner

    I would pay to be allowed to execute Roy Chubby Brown

    Least Fav: Michael Macintyre, John Bishop, Miranda Hart -I’ve seen a funnier stone than her

    Favs: Rich Hall, Rhod Gilbert, Reginald D Hunter

    Dunno if he’s strictly a comedian, but Alan Carr really makes me grind my teeth. No real favourite

    Favourite – Bill Bailey, Jim Jefferies, Kevin Bridges. The second gave the finest stand up performance I have ever seen whilst being so drunk he couldn’t stand up.

    Least – Chubby Brown is just appalling, Miranda I wouldn’t even describe as a comedian, Andy Parsons is also very unfunny IMO.

    Ross Noble gave the best standup performance I’ve ever seen. Reginald D Hunter probably the worst.

    I love Simon Munnery. He’s the definition of hit and miss, but somehow it’s the misses that make the hits so good.

    sorry, never heard of him.

    If I mention “Mrs Brown’s Boys” would that help? (I had to google)

    Favourites: Jack Dee, Ardal O’Hanlon, Rhod Gilbert, Bill Bailey
    Least favourite: Michael McIntyre, Jim Davidson (and all like him). I also can’t watch Tommy Cooper – how anyone can find him a “legend” is beyond me, the guy was cringeworthy.

    Honourable mentions have to go to Ronnie Barker and David Jason for being the best in TV comedy.

    I tell you what though: Miranda Hart must have the best agent in the business. To get someone that unfunny, and that untalented, so much work is nothing short of a miracle. Perhaps she sold her soul, or something.

    Funniest: Dara O’Briain; Rhod Gilbert; Rich Hall; Reg D. Hunter; Milton Jones is quite amusing; Bill Bailey. Do they have to be current? Morecambe and Wise.

    Least funny: Roy Chubby Brown, Jim Davidson, and anyone of their ilk. Most female comedians these days, with the possible exception of Sarah Millican: Sorry to be sexist, but to spend all your time wittering on about periods and getting a boyfriend does not cut it. Who is that other one who’s sole repertoire consists of doing impressions of her Jamaican mother? Oh, and I can’t watch Lee Evans either.
