What makes you laugh out loud?

Definitely Bob Newhart, Dave Allen, despite his language; he could laugh at himself. Pam Ayres...very few comedians today make me laugh tho.

Another one i love

Just a Minute radio 4 Monday at 6.30.

Paul Merton and Andy Hamilton both brilliant.

Sorry, Bob Newhart. £7.00 Very Best Of Bob Newhart on Amazon cd.

I've got Bob Newhardt on cd and play it regularly, I think I got it from Amazon.

Sorry Cherrytree, after a discussion here, I realised, it wasn`t a bus driver, but a driving instructor!

Cherrytree, that`s one of them, there`s another about a bus driver, can`t remember them all, wish we still had a record player, Bob Newhardt is/was so funny. Is he still with us?

There is only one programme that makes me laugh out loud and that is 'a question of sport'. They all seem to have such fun together, no one is ever unkind in what they say and the audience seem to love it too. Funny thing... I don't even like sport and never know any of the answers!

My 16 month old grandson who came wandering into the sitting room holding the spacer and mask for his 3 year old brother's inhaler to his face. It was just so incongruous - he's obviously been watching what to do.

Pam Ayers,very very funny.
Some of the male hairstyles today,

Numberplease was that the American 'tobacco and potato' conversation?
I loved it when they played it on the radio.
Definitely a laugh out loud moment.

They`re a little ancient now, but I have an LP of Bob Newhardt`s famous "telephone conversations". They used to have me in stitches, still would if I could still play them. I tend to shy away from comedians who think that they need smut and bad language to get a laugh. We went, many years ago, to a club in Manchester, to see Tom O`Connor. He was on for an hour and a half, and the whole club was kept laughing for all of that time, with not a single swear word or dirty joke uttered, wonderful evening.

I like observational humour too, but I also love political satire. Having said that, I think Paul Merton is the funniest on Have I Got News because he doesn't go down the political route. Much of Bill Bryson's writing makes me laugh out loud.

Monkeys do it for me every time!

Haha, when I saw the thread title in the Actives list, my immediate answer was phoenix. Then I opened the thread and read your OP
