    The thing with Karl Pilkington is all that moaning and whining he does, it's all true.

    Some of the things he's said over the years border on genius. Like when discussing the FBI witness protection programme he asked instead of having to start his life again in a new place with a new identity, new hair and lose contact with his friends and family, couldn't he instead have a new identity, hair etc in court then just go back to living his life as normal.

    It would save millions.

    I'm off the radar here, Billy Connolly by all means as for the other, pass, but give me Dave Allen, Les Dawson, Mick Miller, Barry Crier, Mel Brooks, Roger Dangerfield, Spike Milligan, Peter Sellers

    Nearly forgot, not a comedian as such but such a funny man, a comedy scriptwriter, check him out on Michael Parkinson, Eddie Braben.

    Some of you ****s seem to be confusing "well I don't like them" with them being good at what they do. If loads of other people enjoy what they do, and they themselves do well out of it, they're clearly good at it.

    Anyhoo.

    Why is this an argument? It's more often than not that the very ****test in life is also the most popular. I already referenced Shakey, Westlife and Cliff and look at Mrs Brown's ****ing ****s for God's sake.

    It's the old "your opinion" versus "a statement of fact" scenario aint it?

    Just because YOU think something is ****, does not mean it is, in fact, ****.

    It's quite simple.

    I didn't say that at all, I'm fully aware my opinion differs from the majority and I 100% like it that way. But we weren't talking about that - I questioned why if something is popular then it automatically follows that it's good?

    Fair point.

    Also, the conversation above has reminded me about that Mrs Browns Boys twat, so I'd like to amend my comment of 'one of the least funny, but not actually the worst'...
