    Controversial but I have to agree with Billy Connolly -- and Lenny Henry.

    I"ve never found Russell Howard funny and can't see at all how he gets so much TV work.

    Jack Whitehall, he reminds me of the kid at school that thought he was the class clown but in reality was just a massive tit that showed off a lot.

    Don't mind Michael Mcintyre, although he isn't laugh out loud funny.

    I think John Bishop is massively overrated, I'd go as far as to say he's sh*te to be honest.

    The crap comedian guests in things like 8 out of 10 cats and celeb juice. Only see them on game shows not actually in stand up.

    Best ones include lee mack, Tim vine and R Gervais.

    Gone off Jimmy Carr and his repetitive under age sex jokes.

    Alan Carr ok and so is Jason Manford

    Not funny, not clever, just a douchebag feeding on the lowest common denominator.

    I'd forgotten about him (lee Evans). I was forced to see him once and he didn't convert me.

    Jethro and his agricultural jokes. Absolutely atrocious.

    "What's the difference between a cow and a woman?"

    "A cow can stand up to her tits in water and not get her fanny wet"

    Told with a very loud West Country accent. Painful.

    No idea. Definitely not at work, though. Honest.

    I'll buck the trend and go for Peter Kay. Lazy historic pop culture references, and made millions out of it.

    Do you remember [insert 1970s reference]? What was all that about, eh? Repeat ad infinitum

    Russell Howard - how he still has a job in TV is beyond me, I suppose once you're on the BBC Gravy Train you're on it for life

    Russell Howard, Michael McIntyre, Lenny Henry and John Bishop. Genial hosts who give the audience a warm glowing feeling but not particularly funny.

    Ricky Jervais....The Office. - who the **** watched that and found it funny - just plain embarrassing. That dancing scene - did anyone genuinely find that funny??

    Royle family too. Frankly it's plain racist against lancashire folk- mind your language, love their neighbour etc for the modern world.

    That bald **** with the tash off 8 to 10 cats - Andy something - must have dodgy photos of somebody to get any work.

    Michael McIntyre - just because your dad knew Kenny Everett does not make you funny.

    I highly suspect there's some left wing club at Cambridge where all the right on "ricks" line up once a year to suck stephen fry's **** and they get a job in "comedy" for life.
