Favourite stand up comedians

[Chozz]

Always love going to see a good stand up. Over the years I've seen Billy Connolly, Jack Dee, Lee Evans, Tommy Tiernan, Eddie Izzard, Ross Noble, Rich Hall, Reginald D Hunter and most recently Sean Lock and David O'Doherty. I tend to prefer the dead pan type or slightly eccentric / off centre ones.

Always feel there is difference between Irish/UK comedians and their American counterparts. The latter tend to be more rehearsed, polished and quite intent on delivering their set in order. Whereas the former often have a bit more ad lib / variation. Just an observation.

One of my favourites of all time was probably the late great Bill Hicks. Also quite enjoying Jim Gaffigan and Bill Burr on Netflix lately. Who else tickles your funny bone? God knows us blues need a laugh...

Frankie Boyle, I know he's said some risque stuff he's still the best for me. Mock the Week used to be great but since he left it's boring some of the more recent comedians like Josh Widdicomb, Rob Beckett, James Acaster.....I just don't get. I have never understood why Alan Davies is considered a comedian don't get that at all. Bernard Manning, Stan Boardman, Frank Carson infact the majority of the old ones off the Comedians show were all top class. Zoe Lyons is my favourite female comedian presently.

Yeah I can't stand all those 'new' type of comedians like Josh Widdecombe and Joel dannet who was on celebrity jungle just not funny at all, Alan Davies comedy is awful still cracks little southern middle class jokes about scourers being thieves

I like Bill Burr and George Carling was great
