    Dolphy and Joey De Leon,their humour is an aquired taste but pinoys seem to like them



    Sometimes you're flush and sometimes you're bust, and when you're up, it's never as good as it seems, and when you're down, you never think you'll be up again. But life goes on.
    The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman is seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. True beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It's the passion that she shows to the outside world.

    I think Ronnie Corbett, Ronnie Barker and Griff Rhys-Jones are the most talented.

    Much better than some of these stand up comedians such as Michael McIntyre, Billy Connolly and Peter Kay.

    It depends if you're talking about comedy characters or comedians.

    Another poster mentioned Mr Bean, which is funny, but i think Rowan Atkinson was brilliant as Edmund Blackadder. In fact, that series has got so many great characters, including Baldrick, General Melchett, Lord Flasheart and, IMHO Hugh Laurie's greatest ever character, Prince George.

    As for stand up comedians, I like Dara O'Briain, Russell Howard, Andy Parsons and the types that are often on Mock The Week.

    Too many for me to come up with a favourite but the one I most loath (that is if he can even be classed as a comedian) is Russell Brand.

    Totally agree he is a genius, along with his sidekicks Karl Pilkington and Steve Merchant. He is not scared to take piss, not bothered about pc and The Office, Extras and Idiot abroad inspired.

    How about Arthur Haynes, Charlie Drake, The Marx Brothers, Eric Sykes and of course Spike Milligan, Eric Sykes.....but thanks to graham for reminding me about Richard Hearne aka Mr Pastry.

    But one person who really made me laugh was Rod hull and Emu attacking I think it was Michael Parkinson .http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sqrg_VCPgAQ
