I watched 'Peter Kay Live at the Manchester Arena' again last night. I just love his observational humour and rate him one of the best comedians around. Russell Howard sometimes seems a bit uncomfortable and his show is patchy.
Some people are just funny people, so you start to smile as soon as you see them - I am thinking of Eric Morecambe , Tony Hancock and Les Dawson. I have never liked comedians who just tell jokes - I never enjoyed Ted Ray or Bob Monkhouse.
Who is or was your favourite comedian?

Do any of you read Peter's books. If you havn't, do. When you see his shows its even funnier because you know the whole story behind the jokes.

Mr P & I watched Peter Kay recently (the tour that didn't thingy). Must admit, never really watched him before, but thoroughly enjoyed it!
