ah, well, #2 is good enough. Not so big on Connolly but he can be brilliant.

Believe me, Connolly is an absolute legend. Every gig I have of his on DVD is laugh out loud stuff and the most incredible thing about it is that he maintained his brilliance for so long, with his gigs from the 70's, 80's and 90's all having that mark of quality that you always expect from him. Nobody makes me wet myself as often as he does, you know?

Connelly is funny. Just can't take to him as a person

Even his later stuff makes me pi$$ myself.

Who got number 1?

Typically terrible conolley is poor.

Lee Evans 17th? crazy.

Connolly got first. Legend. Pryor second. Legend. So yeah, I was very happy with the result.

Where was Michael Macintyre?

11th if I remember correctly.

The top ten went like:
1. Billy Connolly
2. Richard Pryor
3. Ricky Gervais
4. Bill Hicks
5. Eddie Izzard
6. Peter Kay
7. Bill Bailey
8. Chris Rock
9. can't remember
10. Victoria Wood

Annoyed Alan Carr and Lee Evans didn't get higher

And pissed Connelly was number 1, anytime i think of him, he's running around Trafalgar sq. naked :(

Didn't watch... it would only have made me angry.

i'd of put lee evans as no.1 was micheal mctintyre in there?

i'm just happy with Pryor, Izzard and Hicks making top 5.

He was in the top 10 I think, maybe just outside

Izzard in the top 5? Really? I think I'm just one of these people that never really "got it" with him. Too cuddly and "good-natured".

You say those like they're bad things :p

I just love how he can draw humour from the most mind-numbingly dull things, like the beekeeping thing. And Darth Vader in the canteen :love:

His Marathons on tv were amazing

Eddie Izzard is an amazing man but I've never taken to him as a comedian.

'Marathon Man' on the BBC (4 part series) following his marathons is outstanding

Aparently he does drag :p

Is he gay? (that isn't a sterotype question, I was just wondering)

He's a transvestite but no, not gay. He just likes wearing make up and heels and stuff

Michael McIntyre was 9th.

I like Michael McIntyre but I can see myself quickly finding him boring as regards to stand up. He'll be better on panel shows now to keep his comedy refreshing and quit witted

who the **** was voting in this? 12 year olds? ffs:mad:

I can't see 12 year olds liking Ricky Gervais. and McIntyre was #11.

I'd like to know how the Hell Victoria Wood made it that far :|

No idea. Back in her day she was good but I don't rate her these days
