I like all those, bar Lenny Henry
 I can't think of 5, but Lenny Henry would be my no.1 worst comedian, followed by Ricky Gervais. |

I only have one so-called comedian that I detest and that is the very unfunny Jim Davidson so sexist,racist and homophobic.

Lenny Henry is rubbish now - but was once quite amusing on Tiswas - or maybe that was because I was a kid then. Lee Evans isn't too bad. |

Jim Davidson. (Miles above all others).
Lee 'Sweaty' Evans. James Corden. (Should be sued under the Trade Descriptions Act). Roy 'Grubby' Brown. Chaverine Tate. |

The worst comedy I have seen recently is James Corden and his mates show - I just can't fathom out who thought that was funny and deserved a series.
Oh yeah it is the unique way the BBC is funded that brings us such rubbish. Last edited by Sentenza : 12-11-2009 at 04:27. Reason: added more |

Little and Large - the only double act with two straight men (straight in the old-fashioned sense, ie unfunny)

But there are worse. Jim Davidson Peter Kay (bog standard 70's Club comedian but not as good) Ricky Gervais - utterly awful Frank Skinner Alan Carr Dishonarable mentions would include Hugh Dennis, Mike Reid and just about any 70's double act apart from M&W and the Ronnies. |

I must be missing something with Michael McIntyre. Very few people have mentioned him.

I'm from Northern Ireland and we have a lot of dross here. Jimmy Cricket, Frank Carson and Patrick Kielty deserve a mention. Ricky Gervais and Lenny Henry are also crap.
