Re: Who's your favourite Comedian?Dara O'Briain mostly as I love how he just takes the piss out the crowd so much, yeh he has some material rehearsed but he does a lot of stuff just on the spot. I do like Russell Howard and Rod Gilbert rather a lot as well though.

Re: Who's your favourite Comedian?Ed Byrne, Michael McIntyre and the ever brilliant Russell Howard.

Re: Who's your favourite Comedian?Frankie Boyle, Kevin Bridges and Sean Lock
Used to like Jason Manford and John Bishop but they all end up the been ruined by their popularity. Don't know why just become too confident.
Same with Russell Howard -

Re: Who's your favourite Comedian?For a nice laugh-out-loud comedian I would pick Lee Evans any day of the week.
For a thought-provoking one I'll choose Bill Hicks.
For someone who speaks nothing but the truth, George Carlin.

Re: Who's your favourite Comedian?Based on panel shows: Chris Addison, Jack Whitehall, Greg Davies, Humphrey Ker
Based on stand-up: Peter Kay, Lee Evans, Lee Mack, Rhod Gilbert, Russell Howard
Going to see Jack Whitehall and Andy Parsons at the Engine Shed in Lincoln over the next few months (I go to the uni). Saw Stewart Francis there last year and he was great.
