I like all of them except James Acaster. Find his shtick very irritating.

Stewart Lee is great but admittedly not for everyone. Eddie Izzard used to be great at stand up but I haven't seen anything he's done for about 15 years, and haven't seen any comedy put out by the other 2

Eddie did get a bit tired and repetitive towards the latter half of the 00s... but his 90s sets were fantastic and some of the best there ever was.

Agreed - Dressed to kill (I think it was ) and glorious are still some of my fave stand up sets.

We thought Eddie Izzard was marvellous on his earlier days .... he’s a fellow dyslexic which initially drew me to him .

He did seem to lose it all about the time he started ‘dressing’ somewhat outrageously

I don't really rate any of them apart from James, and that's only because we're from the same hometown!

James Acaster is woeful.

Quite like the rest. Much worse out there.

Slight tangent as I really like this guy .. just can’t think of his name ... but he does a skit of interviewing each new batch of Apprentices just before each series begins

If anything she dressed more "out there" at the beginning of her career.

I have the Seven box set (Unrepeatable through to Stripped) on DVD and she starts off with these three outfits:

and the final one has her looking like this:

If we're bashing left-leaning comedians can we start with Nish Kumar please? Most annoying laugh in modern comedy.
