I watched this show last night the results are supposedely chosen by the viewers...
it lasted 3 hours on CH4 last night.............

There was one female (boasted of being a lesbian cant remember her name though, she made Chubby Brown sound like a vicar) I could or would not have selected half of these ............ what do you think ?????????

HERE THEY ARE IN REVERSE ORDER.................... :eek: :suspect:
 
31 - Bob Monkhouse
30 - Lenny Bruce
29 - Bernard Manning

That is some sandwich poor old Lenny found himself in.
 
May well be the most awful "100 Greatest" list i`ve ever seen. I watched the programme and when Russell f$%^ing Brand came on my jaw hit the floor.

I`ve no problem with Connolly winning, to be expected in a public vote. But Bill Hicks reigns supreme imo.

38 - Andrew Dice Clay
37 - Jim Davidson


Those two being next two each other was the only apt part of the chart. Well, apart from the number that is, 1137/38 would be more accurate.
 
Biggest laugh of the evening for me was them asking Jim Davidson for his opinion on Bill Hicks.......................like asking the Pope what he thinks of muff-diving.

Victoria Wood ? I don't think so Merls .

Paul Merton No 92 !!! very very low . As for Johnny Vegas - as much as he can be irritating on telly I saw him do stand up about 6/7 years ago - he was brilliantly funny .
 
I think C4 is scraping the barrell with these '100 greatest' shows. What next - 'The 100 greatest crisps adverts'?
 
:D If only... what a load of dross there is these days - crap 'reality' shows which are as close to reality as Hollywood is to real life; endless nannying series about fat children, fat parents, fat dogs, fat celebrities (just explode, will you, and get off our screens?); so-called 'adventurers' waddling around jungles and deserts, backed up by a team of 100 and a satellite; 'best of' and 'worst of' and 'hilarious out-takes' which consist of C-list actors fluffing their lines and saying f*ck a lot; dumb non-news and hordes of dumb news presenters endlessly addressing each other... John Logie Baird, see what you have wrought!
 
I can't stand Billy Connelly. Bill Hicks and Eddie Izzard are the top 2 for me, with Hicks a street ahead.

IRIS'S GIFT - will he or won't he?
BEEF OR SALMON - will he or won't he?
DETROIT CITY - will he or won't he?
KAUTO STAR - will he or won't he?
FAIR ALONG - will he or won't he?
MY WAY DE SOLZEN - will he or won't he?
BRAVE INCA - will he or won't he?
