Yeah he was literally the only comedian on bbc for a while in the 80s

Could've have been worse, Jim Davidson

Daithi O'Shea. An utterly talentless chancer who loves himself.

I'm fortunate I had no idea who Jim Davidson was until he started doing the rounds on reality tv shows. He was before my time, and I'm blessed that I never saw his standup.

The whole lot of them. Especially the bass player
Don't know any of their names, and probably 2 songs.

jaysus don't say that the bassist forum will be on your tail .....

i know he's good an all but he plays a shortscale bass with light gauge strings....that's practically a guitar

One of the finest bits of casting in TV history.

McShane's also genuinely great in Kung Fu Panda.

Jasper Carrott got lots of airtime too.
They did a show recently with stand ups from the 80s doing a live gig. LH and JC and others. God they were woeful, and you remembered them being really funny too.
The Detectives is still great though.

Gary Wilmot and bobby davro are another two!

Davro was so unfunny he did impersonations of Enfields characters, think Wilmot moved into musicals, his big thing was an impression of Norman Wisdom

A wife beater and bully on top of the well documented racism. Not to mention he starred in one of the worst
English sitcoms of all time, Round The Elephant And Down The Castle.

Up the elephant and round the castle. Shocking stuff altogether.

I only remember him from Big Break, but his 'comedy' is absolutely disgusting. I can't imagine it was ever funny, even allowing for changing attitudes.

I think what people are saying is, you don't like mid 70s to mid 80s British variety.

And who would blame you. There was a genre that existed between the end of genius like Morecambe and Wise and the Two Ronnies and before the break out of the likes of Mayall, Edmondson, Sayle, Ben Elton and the like that was utter, utter shyte. And it all seemed to be on a 7pm on a Saturday for donkeys years.

spookwoman · 08-01-2021 05:38PM

Ben Elton, now that is someone I couldn't and still can't stand with a vengeance.

Fair enough. But he co wrote Blackadder. Credits.

Anyone who makes major political generalisations and the desperate political activist types that try and copy/paste US political drama to Ireland.

E.g. the above.

Also, those you think the 'right' in the US is comparable to Europe.

She couldn't stand the heat, so she closed her twitter.

Her face is on newstalk now. Turned on twitter and her that slightly turned smug sneer was right there. There must be a crime for having a face that incites violence.
