i listen to comedy on Radio 4 Extra. there are some very funny shows on there.

there is this like Geordie woman but i can't remember her name. she helps people with Relationship Problems; there is a "pre-recorded" message for people to "be yourself".

also i like "It is Rocket Science" which has someone who sounds like Tom Baker off Dr Who but i think it is not him. He calls the Universe the Ooniverse it is very funny.

I suppose but only people who watch 8OO10C seem to know about them.

Tim Vines quite good but there's something about his act that annoys me. Stewart Richardson is my one-liner comedian of choice.

I'll have to check out the others.

Yep, haha. No idea how I got confused but yeah, he's very funny the first time but not someone I could watch more than once.

Kevin Hart. Then there are sooo many comedians, even more than rappers. Too many to list.
I'd have to say Ralphie May or Dave Chapelle, although Aries Spears is really good. His impressions are really spot on.
Hugh Dennis is probably my favourite.

Jack Whitehall is good, Jimmy Carr, Russel Howard, Sean Lock and Frankie Boyle are all awesome.

All mainstream but i don't know any non-mainstream ones.
In no particular order: Harry Hill, Al Murray, Lee Mack, David Mitchell, Paul Merton.
John Bishop, Michael McIntyre, David Walliams and Miranda by far! :biggrin: :smile:

Ricky Gervais, Frankie O'Boyle, the folks off Mock the Week, Peep Show... :tongue:
