For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.Peter Kay is good but Connelly is about as funny as shingles, I just can't see it myself, all he does is stand there and swear. I've got no idea how he's managed to get the status he has, there's guy's on those comedy store type shows that are better than Connelly! Jack Dee, Peter Kay, even Jimmy Carr are miles better.
Billy Connoly knows how to deliver a joke brilliantly, the content is a bit bums and farts for my liking. I think he is really engaging to watch, so I find him amusing for those reasons and I can see why he tops the bill for stand up lists time after time. Peter Kaye is pretty funny but not brilliant.
Personally I think, Eddie Izzard is the funniest man alive. He is just brilliant, the way he just gets lost going off on a tangent and he can do it in french and german too. I would add Bill Bailey, Ross Noble, Jack Dee and Ricky Gervais to the list of people funnier than those two tho.
I cannot stand Lee Evans, I think Bernard Manning, Roy Chubby Brown and Kevin Bloody Wilson are jst awful. Along with Jethro I would be surprised if anyone under 50 foud them amusing. Oh and add Jim Davidson to the about as funny as a train wreck list.

Peter Kay and Billy Connelly are great. I just don't get Eddie Izzard any more. He used to be hilarious, and then I saw his DVD - was it called "Sex" or something? - and it was complete and utter pants. I have had more fun at the dentist. It was embarrassingly bad, and he knew it. He kept pleading with the audience to laugh, and failing. Ever since then I have found it difficult to enjoy his stuff.
