Comedians that are not funny but think they are

[Fat Driver]

He was funniest when he wasn't pushing the hard left rhetoric.

He was against "woke" companies long before it fashionable to be "woke" if his appearance on Room 101 was anything to go by.

I have read Alexei Sayle's two autobiographies, he does acknowledge how absurd the hard left was back in the Eighties. And he accepts that he is now, sort of, part of the 'Establishment' that he was so opposed to.

That's debatable, I have seen far better on the tonight I cooked thread. Cheeky and chirpy yes but chefs they are not.

To be fair to the Hairy Bikers, they have never claimed to be chefs, just a couple of blokes who like food.

 

[DemsMaShoes]

Steve Womack's play on words I'd Like to kiss you fer China and others....ribs were never the same again after that...

Reminds me of the Not the Nine O'Clock News song, "Kind a Lingers". A deeply soulful song, the only time I saw my father in law laugh out loud.
(For my sins I like Mick Miller. particularly his gig at Butlins.)

 

[CutLunchCommando]

Is he the bloke who got pelted with bread rolls at the Lords Taverners do? It takes a lot to upset them.

Nope. Thats Nish Kumar.

The problem is that the script-writing teams are massive. Everyone is chasing the laughs.

Over lockdown we’ve been watching box sets of Frazier and Cheers. Both are delights but definitely of a different age. Cheers is gentler but very good. I really like Frazier but it’s closer to what we have now. Superb, mind. Some of the lines are just so sharp.

Frasier is even funnier.

Tim Vine. His jokes weren’t funny when my Grandad told me them in the 80’s. Tim Vine deserves to be smashed up with his own ******* head

Can his brother Jeremy be beaten senseless at the same time with 2 for 1?

 

[Club Swinger]

Has anyone mentioned...ahem...Bernard Manning yet. Racist, homophobic, masogenistic and funny as fcuk?

 

[Club Swinger]

Or what about Chubby Brown?

Saw him live in Chatham. Place was full of WRAC and other Wimmin. He was one smooth talking b@#$%rd a real fanny magnet...

I don't think they style themselves as Chefs do they? Two decent blokes who cook great food I would say ...

The most unfunniest 'comedian' on the planet ever was Ben Elton. Angsty humongou! pillock that he was even in his hey day. God what a ******* boring irritable twat he was.

He still is!

I knew Bernard fairly well and can honestly say he was none of the above except funny. The only thing he hated was lazy ncuts.
A very generous man.

I agree. It is a shame that modern audiences have to be spoon fed the moment to laugh, or are unable to appreciate subtle humour.

And this guy tops my list of the most unfunny comedians currently taking money under false pretences.

I’ve seen chubby a couple of times.
Pretty good, but once you’ve seen him, you’ve seen him. If you know what I mean.

The thing that made me laugh at the time was him coming out onto the stage at the start & saying “My wife’s got 2 cnuts and I’m one of them”.

Iirc, he did a gig in Middlesbrough shortly after the late 80s Cleveland child abuse scandal, and his opening line ws "surprised at the turnout tonight, I thought you'd all be at home shagging your children".

Must have been an interesting audience reaction that night.

He was chased off the stage, and got a police escort out, the locals were out to string him up.

Didn't he die half way through the making of Stein's French jaunt?

I expect that he would have had to have been a pretty formidable character in his own right as Floyd was a drunk who was quite happy to bully underlings and I suspect that Stein (in spite of his post-edit jolly persona) is a moody type with an ego and temper to match.

Pritchard had been unwell for a while, He managed to be on location for long weekends but had to do Mexico from the UK.
He wasn't part of the France series.

Pritchard was indeed formidable himself and also enjoyed a glass or several.
