I can't abide Freddie Star. As the saying goes, 'if he was performing in our backyard I'd draw the curtains' - ha !
Stan Boardman- we were amused by him during the 1970s - some bygone era. But I've gone off him now.

I liked Alexi Sayle during the 1980s and 90s when that style of humour was trendy. He was off his head ! and I don't know why we laughed at that mad stuff - The Young Ones, Bottom, etc, and that genre of comedy. I notice the young kids now are getting into it. They watch DVD's of all those old series.
As for the swearing - well, I actually contradict myself, because I don't really like foul language, and yet I love some comdians who swear.
Some can get away with it, yet some just sound uncouth.
I like Lee Evans but his swearing spoils it for me. he doesn't suit swearing, it just sounds awful.
yet, I like Jack Dee and Billy Connolly, and they seem to get away with it and are dead funny.
I don't know why that is.
