| Comedian Image | Comedian Name | Quick Review | (PKM)Rating 0:20 | You Tube Link |
|---|---|---|---|---|
 |
Terry Alderton | Grant Mitchell, Yul Brynner lookalike - Terry spends half of his set with his back to the audience battling the commands of his inner voices... go and see him | 16 | You Tube |
 |
Stephen K Amos | Not sure what happened to him - He WAS funny once. A monumentally disappointing Fringe show.. Like an unfunny Lenny Henry. No actual jokes. | 2 | You Tube |
 |
Bill Bailey | How can I possibly review the talented Lord of the hair creatures? | 18 | You Tube |
 |
Mitch Benn | A good stand up, he sings stupid songs & plays a guitar, check out his song for the PH doommongers | 14 | You Tube |
 |
Steve Best | Is this immature? one liners, slapstick, reliably good stand up show, not particularly original but pretty amusing | 15 | You Tube |
 |
Adam Bloom | A small hyperactive oddball - is he handsome or ugly? he's fast and witty, go and see him but heckle at your peril though! | 15 | You Tube |
 |
Jo Brand | Not everyone's cup of tea. She does have the odd amusing moment though.... | 8 | You Tube |

Simon Evans | I like him, he's educated and he has no eyes and would like to harness the power of Geordies | 16 | You Tube |

 |
Rhod Gilbert | Very talented Welshman - see this vid as evidence | 16 | You Tube |
 |
Brian Gittins | Newcomer. Ricky Gervais is his biggest fan. Might give you a clue what to expect if you see his show. He will undoubtedly be appearing on a sitcom soon | 6 | YouTube |
 |
John Gordillo | Intelligent and funny -known for his Perrier Award nominated directing and writing for Eddie Izzard. You might know him from the RDA show. Catch his live shows if you can - he's a talented man. | 15 | You Tube |

 |
Russell Howard | Love him or hate him - he's quite funny for a young Brissle boy | 13 | YouTube |

 |

 |
Lloyd Langford | Young, Welsh, not a lover or a fighter, he's very funny, talks about sex a lot - farily new on the comedy circuit but his '08 Edinburgh show was great | 16 | You Tube |

Christian Reilly | He's Mr Shappi Khorsandi, he's got a guitar and he really hates Chris Martin and Sting | 14 | You Tube |
 |
Raymond and Mr Timpkins Revue | Double Act - slapstick meets surreal... music/word act - original idea - brilliant (the first time you see it) | 13 | You Tube |
 |
Paul Sinha | A gay asian. It's the basis of his entire act. Amusing but not a genius | 10 | You Tube |
 |
Will Smith | The other one! He's good. Catch him if you can | 14 | You Tube |

 |
Nick Wilty | sharp observational stuff. He’s good. | 15 | You Tube |

Mike Wozniak | Hilarious, relative newcomer to stand up circuit, wears a marvellous porn moustache and his Dad is a Polish scientific inventor - brilliant! The vid doesn't do him justice but couldn't find a better one... | 16 | You Tube |
 |
Paul Zerdin | Brilliant ventriloquist - don't be put off by that!!, but don't volunteer though - he's ace! | 17 | You Tube |
|
Richard Herring | Comedy legend, Oh F*ck I'm 40 was superb and Hitler Moustache is brilliant in concept and execution. Long thought provoking and funny story's leading to hilarious rants rather than quickfire jokes. | (T89) 18 | You Tube |
|
Justin Moorhouse | The bit part he had on Pheonix Nights does not do this guy justice, one of... actually the funniest comedy show I have ever seen. | (T89) 19 | You Tube |
|
Paddy Mcguinness | The big part he had on Pheonix Nights does do this guy justice, more than that it covers up his slight lack of talent. He kept people laughing in a shouty lowest common denominator kind of way. Painfully average and debuting his new Greggs advert during the show was severely lame | (T89) 10 | You Tube |
|
Ivan Brackenbury | This guy is a genius... well the guy who plays him is. The show is played out as a live broadcast to North Derbyshire hospital radio and is different and brilliant show. | (T89) 16 | You Tube |
|
Marcus Brigstocke | Superb stand-up comedian, quite old school but quick witted and brilliantly funny. | (T89) 15 | You Tube |
