(My favourite Dave Allen joke, "British Telecom have produced a report that shows 8 out of 10 phones are out of order because they've been vandalised. I think it's the other way around".

Shocked you choose him!

Peter Cook

Double posting - but oh yes indeed, he was legendary - but there's not a lot of material out there (perhaps deleted rather than never produced in the first place).

Does Ronnie Barker count as a comedian? Surely more of a comedy actor. Not much of The Two Ronnies was written by the two Ronnies.

Bill Bailey for the modern era.

Thats open to debate, most of Ronnies stuff was written by him (or co-written) but he didn't use his real name in order to keep his writing and acting seperate. totally needless as Porridge was gold.

Gerald Wiley == Ronnie Barker

Ronnie Barker surely?


Allen was a staple of my childhood - but for me, you just can't beat Ronnies stuff.
