And the award for the most irritating /annoying laugh goes to....

Stampy Longnose....even worse than Jimmy Carr! To be found on YouTube.

I can't stand Jimmy Carr at all. Sean Lock is not funny either. Sometime "8 out of 10 cats does countdown" can have some funny moments but most of the time I can't bear to watch it. Too crude!

Agree with Baubles about Elaine Paige. infact everything about Elaine Paige annoys me

I would add Michael Ball to the annoying laugh list. He constantly laughs at his own (pathetic) jokes and calls everyone "my lovely" ! what on earth's that about?

I think Jimmy Carr's laugh is put on for effect.

Yes, jimmy Car and Elaine Page.

Yes Jimmy Carr - I can't watch him. Like Alan Carr however.

Jimmy Carr

Oh yes Jimmy Carr's false laugh and he always has that 'I have to put this ridiculous look on my face so that you know I'm a comedian' look.

Yes, I thought Jimmy Carr as soon as I saw the thread title.
Elaine Page comes a close second judging by that clip although I'd not noticed her before.

Gosh that's true baubles. She's got the most irritating laugh. We switch off at once if she comes on the radio.
Jimmy Carr certainly 'works' his odd laugh.

Can't comment on Jimmy Carr's laugh as I've never heard it but it cannot be any more irritating than Elaine Paige's.

I agree. It always sounds false to me.

Laughing all the way to the bank

Well, I knew the answer to that before I read post ??
