JIM CARREY
EDDIE MURPHY

I really don't understand the obssesion with Peter Kay!

His material is so weak, ive sat through two of his dvds and not laughed once!

My favourate comedian of the moment is Ricky Gervais although I also like The Mighty Boosh, Mitchell and Webb and Russell Brand.

Bill Bailey and Paul Merton

Ray Romario
Omid Dijalli

Bill Hicks

Billy Connolly.

*folds arms*

cracks me up. there is no other. But here I think Dave Allen, the Two Ronnies, David Jason and Laurel and Hardy also deserve a mention as some of the greats.

Dave Allen often gets overlooked, which is a terrible shame. I often think that Bily Connolly takes the credit that he should get. He had genuine passion, didn`t compromise and didn`t play the game.

To be honest their both good in my books, but I've been watching alot more of Ricky Gervais the past 2 or so years, but I would love it for Steve Coogan to come back with some more "Alan Partridge" I remember him on Jonathan Ross a couple of weeks back, he hinted that hes not finished with that character and he also done a few Alan Partridge sketches...

I'd LOVe to see Steve Coogan do another I'm Alan Partridge again.

I hate it when our comedians/ comediennes get all "serious" and Hollywood, I just want to see laugh at some loser with no social skills!!!.

I heard that Dominic brigstocke and Armando ianucci don't want to do a third series of Partridge, would it be the same without them?

Green Wing has several ex Partridge guys on board, Sophie from Series 1, Dan from Series 2 and I see that a a natural successor to I'm Alan Partridge - I love both of them - brilliant, brilliant comedies!!!!!!

Lazyhand is my favourite comedian because of his Richard & Judy song.

I dont really have a favourite comedian but i do like lenny henry ...but my favourite comedienne would have to be victoria wood.
