Who's the greatest British comedy figure of the last 30 years? 12:50 - Dec 13 with 32724 viewschicoazul

I say 30 years as it would include the alternative guys that came out of the mid 80s as well as the guys who were established then for e.g. Bernard Manning, Chubby Brown etc

For me it's tough but i would say Harry Enfield is consistently funny, has his finger on the pulse, is a good actor and Ruddy Hell It's Harry and Paul is the best comedy programme in ages.



In before Theresa May, David Cameron etc

In the spirit of reconciliation and happiness at the end of the Banter Era (RIP) and as a result of promotion I have cleared out my ignore list. Look forwards to reading your posts!

What do you mean he's a freak?

I knew you'd dislike him.

Is plastering your face in makeup and wearing a pink beret seen as normal now then?

I might try it.

You sound threatened by it. You're not the 'normal' police, buddy.

Most people don't give a fook how others live their lives, so long as they aren't bothering anyone.

Why does it bother you? It's holding attitudes like this that made me think you were a 70 year old wrinkled mess of a gammon btw

Our lot bumped into him in Islington after a QPR game about a dozen years back, he was resplendent in high heels, stockings and a mini skirt.

I thought it was you at first glance.

You said he was a freak. What's that got to do with being funny? You don't think he's a freak because he's unfunny. You're clutching your pearls because he wears high heels from time to time.

I know what's going on here. Benters has gone full American Beauty as a result of his old boy feeling a twinge when he takes a gander at Eddie Izzard. Awfully specific, mentioning a pink beret, don't you think?

Ha! What has running got to do with being funny,unless of course you poo yourself.


You called him a plank in your initial reply, which seemed like a personal attack. You didn't say anything about his humour.

I never said running has anything to do with being funny.

Let's be honest. It's not about him being funny or not for Benters. So far he's called him a plank and a freak based solely on what he chooses to wear and and how he decides to present himself to the world.

Shameful really.

I have to go with Vic and Bob, but at a choice of the two then Bob - Although a bit of a nostalgia trip at times, Vic and Bobs Big Night Out on "BBC4" is just as pleasing as it was years ago - I still miss them on NYE, Those were certainly the days
