Michael McIntyre .... where does he rank in the list of all time great comedians?

[The Wikir Man]

I'm still shocked that somebody thought you and him were tay

That makes me glum

[DaveB]

His material delivered by almost any other comic would be brilliant. He's just too irritating himself. Eveyrtime he opens his mouth I get wound up

Went to see him at Wembley and distinctly average. Seemed like he was timing the gig by his watch... On - Jokes - off see you bye.

Jimmy Carr on the other hand took questions, heckles and was on 45 mins more than billed. Brilliant!!!

Imo Peter Kay has the same act as Mike Harding - Mike Harding was funnier though. He's just a beardy-weirdy folky singer now.

Yeah, I kind of agree, PK is a funny bloke, like you get a funny bloke in the office, but he's a bit one trick....

Remember Bob Williamson, another Bolton Son? He was funny, but maybe it's nostalgia...

Another Bolton Comic, sadly missed, died a few years back at 42, the late lamented Hovis Presley, deadpan and without charisma, a smile comic rather than a laugh-out-loud:

I've bitten off more than you've had hot dinners

I once spent an evening with Lola or Layla
She said make me breathless I hid her inhaler

And there was one to the tune of Hendrix's Hey Joe;

"Hey Joe, where do think you're going,
With that Black and Decker Workmate in your hand?

I'm going to dismantle my Old Lady...."

Class!

Jimmy is a class act. Best put down of a heckler I' ve ever seen was this one.

Bernard Manning's retort to a heckler at the Embassy Club who'd said he'd paid good money for his seat was "Money I've got, aggro I don't need now f**k off!"

I once made the serious mistake of downing two pints of JW Lees in one (well two - not Moonraker thank God) on a stag do at the Embassy while BM was on.

Of course within seconds of doing it I wanted a piss. No way was I going while BM was, especially as we where sat at the front.

Eventually there was a break, off I went. huge queue. Got in, had my pee, came out, BM back on....foookk....

I made it, the guy behind me got it, he was short and got loads of Japanese sniper jibes....

The Follies of Men's youth are in retrospect glorious.....

[GillsMan]

No mention yet of Frankie Boyle? One of the funniest blokes I've seen in years!

I had my first stag-night at the Embassy. Don't know where I'm having my next one...
