    Re: The fringe starts on Friday so...

    There's a comedy club not far from where I live so I've been pretty lucky to see quite a few standup comedians the last few years. The three best ones for me have been Reginald D Hunter, Jack Whitehall (who was completely different to how he now comes across on tv) and probably the best but must outrageous, Scot Capurro.

    I've only seen him on TV shows and a few clips of his stand up act but I find Omid Djalili very funny.

    Its hard to credit because most people will only associate him with Bullseye, but I once saw Jim Bowen in Blackpool (more than 20 years ago) and he was fantastic. He told a story about a contestant on Bullseye that I can still recall now, and which still makes me laugh.

    Also, Greg Davies' - 'Firing Cheeseballs at a dog' dvd is brilliant, especially the stuff about his dad!
