Jimmy Carr, in my opinion, works hardest at his craft, and just nails a joke more often than almost anyone else.
Saw him in the few days after his tax issues went public, and he handled that situation much better than I thought possible.
Milton Jones and Stewart Francis always seem to make laugh.
Wasn't a big Jimmy CArr fan until recently when I went to see him live and it was incred, by far the best comedy show I've seen
Definitely this. On TV a bit meh. Live he's incredible.
true of so many comedians
especially when the tv is Live from the Apollo or similar
The Alternative Comedy Experience is worth a watch though. Filmed at The Stand in Edinburgh and captures some of the liveness of the performances

Live, the funniest I've seen have been Billy Connolly, Dara O'Briain and Rhod Gilbert.
Saw Billy ages ago (about 25 years ago) and he was excellent, and then again about 5 years ago at the Apollo when he did over two hours of non-stop belly-ache comedy. A genius in his field, and amazing for his age. Dara does a very good stand-up gig, with a lot of ad-libbing that makes it even more enjoyable. Again, a two-hour gig that is funny from start to finish. I love a good rant, and Rhod Gilbert does it so well. Saw him do a warm-up gig in Nottingham for an audience of about 100 (with Stu Hopkin), and it was very good and I'd already bought tickets to see him in Doncaster not long after - but it was still excellent.
Going to see Dara again next March - looking forward to it.
Would have loved to have seen Dave Allen.

Would echo what others say about Jimmy Carr he is awesome live.
If anyone stays near a Stand Comedy Club I'd defo suggest becoming a member it's like £20 a year but you get loads of discounted entry and good previews of coming tours.

Jimmy Carr has probably the most annoying laugh on television though. I'm sure I have turned off programmes before just to get away from it.
Anyway, one of the best imo...........Simon Amstell.

This must be the best heckler comeback in the history of comedy by Carr.

Dave Gorman
is a recent discovery for me - amazing.
Live seen
Peter Kay
and
Michael Mckintyre
. Peter Kay is the funniest thing ever, i smile just thinking about the gig I saw.
Nina Cont
i is superb,
Sarah Pascoe
is funny too.
Kevin Bridges
very good, but not sure he'll ever repeat the Glasgow Bus Stop story.
Rhod Gilbert.
Creme de la Creme however, for me,
Eddie Izzard
from a few years back in his prime. Fruit Bowl, Death Star Canteen. Never beating that.
R4 Comedy of the week on pod coast can be very funny, can be rubbish that said.
Tom Wrigglesworth
latest is very funny, if a little sad.
