I don't mind Josh Widdicombe. He has nothing on Micky Flanagan who is brilliant, can't believe i didn't go to his show. Lee Mack's good but my favourite one is Milton Jones went to see him last year in York he was brilliant, funny and was well worth the money. Jason Byrne is brilliant, not sure if he tours over here but watch his stuff on youtube you will love it.
This is a classic story from Jethro if you can understand his cornish accent. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_axHV2wx8RA
Is there anyone better than Frankie?As long as you take the leap and enter his world and its rules beforehand and have a good bath afterwards .Saw him at city hall followed by stu francis a few days later.Both good but was looking at my watch near the end of Stus one liners.
I'll tell you who I can't stick; Andy Parsons. Dog ****. Sean Lock is another favourite of mine though.
Sean Lock is brilliant. Every time he opens his mouth it's hilarious. He can say the most random stuff that isn't even funny in itself but his delivery makes it seem funny.
Really clever, funny stand-up is Dara O'Briain, but sometimes suffers from trying to be too clever.

It does pull in the problem with the accents point from the other thread - he tones his right down. As for that twat John Bishop, **** accent, **** comedian.
I think Dara O'Brien suffers from him not being quite as clever as he thinks he is, and others not being as stupid as he'd like them to be.
Just for you Chazz I could wrestle an action man, wonderful. [video=youtube;xWksoZx0324]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xWksoZx0324[/video]
Sean Lock is really good but the funniest i've seen for ages is Mark Thomas.. he's more one for funny stories than jokes
I like Sean Lock when he's is on panel shows like QI or 8 out of 10 cats. But I'm not a fan of his stand up, I think he's better when he has people to bounce off.
Not sure if you like American humour but if you do check out Lewis Black on you tube this fella cracks me up! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ENGUYeiGtNk And another one about hunting http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T6ene75RM3w
Reginald D Hunter & Rich Hall are good American comedians from what I see on British Panel shows like QI & Have I Got News For You.
