Best ever british comedian?

[BattlingNelson]

I love english humour. But who's the GOAT?

Vote and discuss.

Frankie Boyle for me but I like dark comedy.

[DeadLikeMe]

Eddie Izzard

[Robbie Barrett]

Those are actors not comedians.

[-MAKAVELLI-]

man, there are so many funny British comedians...can't choose

[rorymac]

Stephen Merchant, Steve Coogan, Chris Morris, Armando Ianucci all deserve a place.

I also consider George Macdonald Fraser to be a comedian as his literature is side-splittingly funny. Same goes for PG Wodehouse.

[Tom Cruise]

Billy Connelly always deserves a mention!

[BattlingNelson]

Gee I thought I had the names pretty well covered and yet all the names mentioned in this thread is some I've never even heard of lol.

I must be getting old.

Lee Evans?

Better question: WHO are they?

Anyway who do you think they should replace in the poll?
