used to think Billy Conolly was hilarious,but in recent years I find him tedious.
Al Murray seems to be going the same way,the joke is wearing a bit thin.
I still think Lee Evans is pretty good.
Favourite comedy show of all time, has got to be the fast show. :y

My all time favourite is Ronnie Barker......a very clever man who not only performed but also wrote some of the greatest sketches of all time

Completelly agree with you aout Billy being good then tedious, and with you ont eh Al Murray becoming a bit tired, but I never found Lee Evans funny.

Eddie Izzard is another one who used to be so funny, but now he is all serious and has lost his edge.

Who's that Scottish guy with short hair and glasses from Mock the Week? He makes me laugh like a drain. So un-PC.

You probably mean Frankie Boyle - very funny man indeed, and absolutely filthy with it.  In fact, all the people on that show make me laugh.  They had 8 episodes back-to-back on Dave last night.  Didn't actually watch all of them... :)

Jackie Mason - you can understand him?

I can't, and I've been Jewish for 62 years...
