Off topic slightly....
Stewart Lee is playing a secret gig next year local to Swindon, if anyone is interested then PM me for details.
Fucking good secret that one. A year to go and people know about it already. |

Of the 'panel show' circuit, Rich Hall is best. His American Pop-culture BBC documentaries have been great too.

Rich Hall is good in panel shows. He tends not to say much, but he pops up with one comment and steals the show.

I fucking love Rich Hall. All his documentaries are brilliant, his stand up a joy.

Trevor Noah. I've seen a few bits recently on YouTube, what I've seen is very funny.

Trevor Noah is probably the best comedian I've seen live. Thought I wouldn't like him but last year the funniest stand-up I saw was Russell Kane.
Comedy is very subjective of course but for live mainstream acts I've seen, I've really enjoyed Ricky Gervais, Russell Brand, Jimmy Carr, Frank Skinner, Josh Widdicombe and Katherine Ryan. Less mainstream but very funny live -> Henning Wehn, Paul Chowdhury and Marcel Lucont (a parody Frenchman).
I also agree with those who recommended Mark Steel and Mark Thomas, if you like lefty-comics. Seen both several times and always entertaining.
I haven't seen them live but think Chris Rock and Louis CK are both very sharp (for Americans..). I would highly recommend the TV series, Louie (starring Louis CK) too.
As for Chris Ramsey, I'd have preferred to have seen our former right-back in stand-up...

About the only comedian I find genuinely funny. |

I did say comedy is very subjective! "My Family" got a prime-time slot on TV for years whereas it was the sort of piss-weak comedy I loath. |

True.
"Little Britain" won awards. That was atrocious.
