Lee Evans has to be Norman Wisdom's son or something surely!

I know what you mean, some of his facial expressions are straight from Norman Wisdom. Saw him last night in sheffield, and it was simply hilarious. Better than his last tour by a country mile

He did my old home town Yeovil as a warm-up for his new tour and I wasn't overly impressed although the fact he was clutching a hundred pages of notes through his act did put me off a bit... hehe

I'm a big fan of Lee so hopefully it was a one-off and he's as funny as ever on this tour.

It was the funniest thing i've seen him do yet, bar maybe XL, but way funnier than BIG, his last tour, and he was probably just using the gig in your old home town as a test the water sort of thing

You're right. It was advertised as a "warmup gig" hence it was much cheaper than a normal gig. Still funny though and one of only two or three comedians I'd pay money to go and see.

Glad he's still funny though. Seems like a decent bloke off stage too, obviously loves his missus.

I would happily break bones in my foot kicking him in the face.

Simply cannot bear the man,

As soon as he starts gurning and thrashing around I'm scowling at the telly,

Peter Kay on the other hand, on Jonathan Ross a few weeks ago, that is a comedy genius. The other comics, baby-idiot-Lee Evans included, must just watch Peter Kay and think to themselves "why am I bothering?"

Anyone watching Peter Kay thinks "why am I bothering" at some point. The guy is so unfunny he creates a talent vacuum around himself which is then filled with the horrendous awkwardness that happens when a room full of people think "...die".

EDIT: That's not to say I'm defending Lee Evans, by the way. I might find him funny if he would actually speak at an understandable once in a while.

Also, Lady Gaga is such an absolute fking idiot I can't even watch her. I skipped over her bit.

Everybody likes different things, you can't stand Lee Evans, and i think dying of an Ebola/cancer hybrid would be funnier than Peter Kay, that's just life smile

No, that's Robbie Williams.
