particularly interested in new people to explore, so any links etc useful

Milton Jones is a tough one for me - he is a bit like a band that has an amazing first album and then never quite makes it to the same standard.  His original set is brilliant, but Im not sure he has written a good joke since.

Merton needs to get back on stage - he is an awesome stand up.

Steven Wright and George Carlin will always be amoung my favourites.

Shit post Nakor, such a clown.

What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?

Haven't seen a stand up gig in decades so all my picks are TV shows/DVDs.

Louis C K, his show on Fox Channel is excellent.

Stewart Lee

Loved Adam & Joe too

Chris Morris anyone?

Steve Coogan as Alan Partridge?

The captains on 8 out of 10 Cats are good, and Jimmy Carr, too.

Three good choices there Tighty. Milton is very marmite, I personally love him.

I've seen some comedians more than once and non live up to their first performance. Rhod Gilbert, Sarah Millcan are examples.

Seen Jimmy Carr/Kevin Bridges/Mikey Flanagan/Frankie Boyle/Peter Kay. Liked them all.

Favourite performances have come from Stephen K Amos, Jason Byrne, Tom Stade and the first Rhod Gilbert one.

Going to see Andrew Lawrence in January, really looking forward to it.

Love Russell Howard's good news on TV.

Hard to beat Richard Pryor in his hay day.

Richard Pryor was probably the only Black Comedian I ever got.  My missus watches loads of comedy from American and pisses herself at it and I just don't get it.  Makes me feel old. 

Also don't really like shouty folk for that reason Gilbert pisses me off, if he's a bit quieter I might find him funny. 

The teacher from The Inbetweners done a good stand-up, his name escapes me right now.

Of the American comedians it's always the black guys that make me laugh the most, usually taking the piss out of us whities!
