Laurel and Hardy, Chaplin, Buster Keaton - they started it all
The Young Ones - kickstarted British Alternative comedy
Bernard Manning - still the most popular standup in Britain.

WHATS with the Ken Dodd thing ? You are joking arent you ?

Ken Dodd is absolutely not dead. Not yet anyway. And as the intro suggests, comedy is a very personal thing. But Doddy definitely qualifies; there's not a British comedian as highly-respected in the industry.
