Talking

With the sad loss of Bob Monkhouse, who was the best comedian of all time?

I say Kenny Everet.

Difficult to say I think as there are lots of different era's to consider.

I dont find any of the new generation that funny though.
I suppose Ken Dodd must be up there with them.

During a performance one evening, comedian Billy Connolly was interrupted by an obnoxious heckler. Fortunately, Connolly had a ready reply: "When they put teeth in your mouth," he declared, "they spoiled a perfectly good bum!"


Could be good on this site LOL

In my own words "I'm not always right, but i'm never wrong" - think this applies here.

The best sketch ever (official) was the two ronnies.

Its set in hardware shop.

Guy comes in asks for four candles - shopkeeper climbs up gets them, passes them to customer.

Customer says no - fork andles - handles for forks.

And so the sketch goes on.

Peter Kay is the best of the new comics.

For making people laugh, Tommy Cooper can never be beaten.

Definately, Bill Hicks rip.

But I must say, 'The Pub Landlord' is superb on his new DVD.

Bill Hicks - Class:

No, I don't do drugs anymore, either. But I'll tell you something about drugs, I used to do drugs, but I'll tell you something honestly about drugs, honestly, and I know it's not a very popular idea, you don't hear it very often anymore, but it is the truth- I had a great time doing drugs. Sorry. Never murdered anyone, never robbed anyone, never raped anyone, never beat anyone, never lost a job, a car, a house, a wife or kids, laughed my *** off, and went about my day. Sorry.

I just cannot, you know, believe in a war against drugs when they've got anti-drug commercials on TV all day long, followed by, "This Bud's for you." I got news for you, folks. A-1, alcohol is a drug, and B-2, and here's the real one, alcohol kills more people than crack, coke and heroin ... combined each year.
Pot is a better drug than alcohol - fact, and I'll prove it. You're at a ballgame, you're at a concert, someone's really violent, aggressive and obnoxious, are they drunk or are they smoking pot? (Audience) Drunk! The one and only correct answer, tell them what they've won, Johnny!
...cigarettes legal, alcohol legal, kill more people than all illegal drugs combined times one thousand, they are legal. Marijuana, a drug that kills...um...no one, and let's put in a time frame: ever, is illegal.
Isn't it interesting how cigarettes and alcohol, the two drugs that do NOTHING for you, are legal, while pot and mushrooms,two drugs that open your eyes to how you're being f-cked every day, are illegal. Isn't it interesting? I'm sure they have our best interests at heart...
