Which comedian? (Lighthearted!)

Tim Vine. He was so funny on Countdown last week.

Oh, John Bishop. A serious contender - he’s such a good bloke.

Oh yes- Romesh Ranganathan and his Mum! We'd be fine. Everything would get done and we'd have a laugh.
I absolutely cannot fathom how anyone could find 'Mrs Brown' remotely funny.
All down to personal preference of course. Humour is so subjective.

Billy Connelly he'd have us all out in all weathers remember his "theres no bad weather just the wrong clothes" thats'd solve obesity crisi etc and he'd tell it how it is .I say this despite Billy being a unionist ...at least as a comedian he'd be funny unlike the current comedians in power.

PS I used to go to the same Glasgow parties as he did .

or for the younger generation Kevin Bridges ,he's down with the kids...lol

Peter Kay for me.

Billy Connolly plus his psychiatrist wife Pamela. In fact they could be the new royal family after independence, paddie although does he live in Britain? He may be another tax exile like Sean Connery.

Ricky Gervais

He is Grammaretto. Pamela is a psychologist.

Anybody but please God, not Stephen Fry! He is so far up his own backside, he’s coming out of his ear!

[Grin] Greyduster A rude thought popped into my head at your phraseology there, but I will leave it firmly in my head

Isn’t Billy quite poorly at the moment? I like Ricky too.

Also what about a coalition of the pair who wrote Gavin and Stacey?? James corden and Ruth Jones??

I think Nessa and Smithy would do a cracking job.

Definitely Al Murray for me. He did in fact stand in the 2015 elections and his party was called Free United Kingdom party (FUKP). The manifesto was written on the back of a cigarette packet. Heard him on the radio yesterday and he's actually Oxford educated and is quite intelligent. (Not that the two necessarily go together!) ?

John Bishop - he's witty and compassionate.

Al Murray? Good suggestion. He's funny and clever.

Well Cavewoman, in a very lighthearted way, I have to say, really don’t get Mrs Brown! Hey, it’s probably just me, not wishing to offend any Mrs Brown fans!!!

I agree re Stephen Fry. I can't stand him. Full of his own importance (in my opinion).

Al Murray would get my vote.
Or Richard Osman

I agree Greyduster & KatyK I used to like Stephen Fry but now he is so full of himself he is not so amusing.. Having said that I haven't seen much of him on TV lately.
John Bishop is an interesting choice.

Yes to Richard Osman!

Definitely Billy Connolly, hilarious and straight talking!

Eddie Izzard

Kevin Bridges.
Fry is far too smug.
Bishop lays the accent on far too much.
Toksvig and the others...nothing to recommend them.
As for that dork on Pointless...Richard Osman...not in 1m years.
I'm agitating for that programme to be axed too.

The big yin fer me

Yikes that should have been
