He (Peter Kay) has been called "the Oasis of comedy" because his routines are "workaday, northern and so full of joie de vivre that you can't help but sing along".


...and like Oasis you've heard it all before.

Glad to see they're not wasting their time with anything trivial in these troubled economic times.

This is far and away the worst thing I've seen all day. Just pure shit.

The placing of numbers 3, 4, 5, 7, 9 and 10 on the second list have genuinely made me a bit angry. Though 8 doesn't surprise me. In fact, I'd expect him to be much higher.

Where did they get the least favourite comedian list from?

Did they specifically ask people to name their least favourite?... in which case, I'll bet there are plenty of less famous comedians that people haven't thought of, who they'd consider worse than the one they chose.... or did they just have a big list of famous comedians and did a poll of peoples favourites?.... in which case, what if Spike Milligan was a most people's 2nd favourite comedian? ... That list is not only pointless, but totally inaccurate.

I can't believe that many people dislike Alan Bennett. Indifference, maybe, but dislike?

I think it may be a case of indifference, it has the feel of a poll where 3,000 people were simply asked "Who is your favourite comedian?" and Jo Brand et al just didn't get that many votes.

I prefer more of the comedians on the worst list than I do on the best list.

Isn't Peter Kay really just a male, comtemporary, Victoria Wood?

I think Mr. Herring is getting Alan Bennett mixed up with the other Alan Bennett...

But if you look on the lists everyone is pretty much a household name. So why would the "other" Alan Bennett be on there?
