I voted cheese and ham pie.
Then I changed it to Alan Carr.
Then I changed it to Bill Hicks.
I might change it back to pie later.

Bill Hicks can be funny.

Henry Rollins is also good.

This is a pretty difficult one.

Eddie Izzard is a genious, plain and simple.

Dylan Moran is also fantastic, in his own bitter and twisted fashion.

Bill Bailey is also fantastically funny, and blends it all together with music, which is one of my passions in life.

Alan Carr is about as funny as having your balls mashed with a 5Lb lump hammer. Did you really mean to put him in there in place of Jimmy Carr?

Also Alan Carr is really annoying at stand up (although he's ok in QI) but I did see a guy on "Live at the Apollo" called Jason Statham and he was pretty funny too.


Again, are you sure you don't mean Jimmy Carr. 99% certain that Alan Carr hasn't been on QI.

LMAO, I can't talk for the others but that is who I was thinking of! Not a fan of the Alan. I'd forgotten all about his irritatingness until I saw that picture :?

Heckity, I'm getting my comedians seriously muddled. When I voted for Bill Hicks I was thinking of Bill Bailey. He's the hairy one who plays every instrument ever invented, right? Very talented showman, and not on the list.

Vote changed back to pie. These are not the comedians we are looking for :shock:

Billy Connolly is the stand up God.

Love Lee Evans too and I don't remember seeing anyone mention Jack Dee!

I totally meant Jimmy Carr, still annoying but not as annoying as Alan Carr. Jack Dee was good in the old days when he was properly twisted and bitter and before he started wearing shiney shiney suits!!

Bill Bailey, Denis Leary, Adam Hills, Ed Byrne

As Saspro said, how did Alan Carr get on there? He's about as funny as athletes foot.

Frankie Boyle. Buy his DVD today. Seriously.

Jason Manford is also a pretty good new-ish comedian.
