Does anyone find him remotely funny ? About as funny as piles imo 😆c

I’m assuming so as he’s made a career out of it

And who makes you laugh? Of the comedians I mean .

Like many on here....I just find most of the newer lot totally unfunny. Seen so many over the years.
Frank Skinner has always made me laugh. I loved a lot of the old style old school comedians that would tour the club scene in the Seventies and Eighties. Agree with Highjack that the silliness is missing at the moment...

My point is he’s not funny

(Some) people will laugh if their granny’s arse is on fire


If you list who you find funny I'm sure some will say they don't find them funny

I never found fools and horses funny, absolute sh1te

I think Katherine Ryan is funny. I also like Susan Calman on shows like QI. And Sandi Toksvig for that matter. Far better than Stephen Fry doing QI.

Can’t stand Jimmy Carr on those shows. Love David Mitchell.


I get the feeling Stephen Fry always wanted QI to be a more serious show. He’d often get visibly frustrated when it got a bit silly. He’s been far too serious for far too long.

I like him but think he’s too taken in by his own reputation as ‘clever’ at times on QI.

I enjoy the lighter touch now.

II don't generally enjoy comedians doing 90 minute sets but I saw Rhod a few years ago at The Lowry. He was shouty but pretty funny. I've enjoyed his TV work (Work Experience, NMTB, TA-YBF).

It's interesting that Katherine Ryan gets a mention. She's the ONLY comedienne I've ever laughed at (admittedly that's based only on her panel show appearances) which troubles me as I don't consider myself to be misogynistic.

Im the same bryn.

Micky makes me piss myself laughing.

I never tire watching him.


Me and the Mrs got lucky to see him on 8 out of 10 cats just before Television Centre closed for the refurb..

The episode was so close to the bone there was no uncut version, fùcking brilliant

She was on the show from my last post above. Sean Locke was class too. On Felix Baumgartner

Sean Locke on 8 outa 10 cats ( both formats) is superb. Look up his description of Julian Assange on it...one of the funniest 10 mins ever on a panel show.

What did he say that made your laugh?

Did you just laugh as everyone else did?


No butt, I have my own opinion and I've liked Rhod for a good few years, the tour he is in the middle of, or should say was in the middle of was his 1st standup performances for over 10yrs. He has had a number of health issues and it was good to se him back on form.
The fact that I enjoyed his performance seems to irk you for some bizarre reason. Oh and I love Micky Flannagan, Frankie Boyle and Kathrine Ryan , hope that's ok

I think Lee Mack is up there with DM on this show. Dai is particularly great though as his mother was from the Uplands, Peep Show is incredible and his autobiography is a great read.

Frank Skinner ( in his younger days) was a brilliant stand up.
But right now Mickey Flanagan is the governor.


Saw Frank Skinner live last year.

Still very funny.

When it comes to comedians & comediennes, there are some I love, some I like, some I can take or leave, some I'm not keen on and some I dislike. I make no apologies if some people disagree with my tastes but that's just the way I am. One thing that has surprised me from this thread though, is that some people like Rhod Gilbert and some don't, the same with Katherine Ryan and many others and it never occurred to me that that would be the case.

And for the poster who described Josie Lawrence as a gilf, she has never had children let alone grandchildren so, by definition, she has never been a milf nor a gilf and now, I suspect, never will be.

I've never had piles so can't give an honest opinion to OP.

I do like Rhod though.

It's easier to name those that I don't find funny, Kumar, Millican, Boyle. There's others but I turn those 3 off most times.
Some of them I find funny on the panel shows but not at stand up, Like Jimmy Carr.

Just my opinion, but WTF do I know anyway?

Genuinely, I’m staggered that Sarah Millican has made a living from comedy. I’d prefer to have bamboo shoots shoved behind my finger nails quite frankly than watch that crap.

Gilbert enjoyed a year of being funny. Unlike eliis Jenkins who isn't funny, maybe he isn't meant to be...

OK I've changed it.

Kumar is about as funny as being given a ST for legoland.
Surely only on tv for ethnicity balancing.

His mother is from the Uplands? That’s where he obviously gets his razor sharp wit and intellect from.
