    Funny people who you didn't find funny

    Cannon and Ball, totally unfunny and nasty people by accounts.
    Mike and Bernie Winters, utter tripe.
    Little and Large proper opportunity knocks fodder.
    Morecambe and Wise, more for my parents generation than mine, but my parents couldn't stand them either. Over rehearsed and it showed.
    Norman Wisdom, funny if you are aged six.
    I would have said Jim Bowen but he was hilarious when he was trying to be serious.

    Unfunny Charlie Chaplin, he was more sentimental and maudlin. Hale and Pace ( mind ya there is someone on here who finds them funny)
    Watching Tommy Cooper isnt at all funny, he probably was back in the day. Russ Abbot was also rather sh1te

    Harry Hill, I genuinely don't get it. What an irritating little knob.

    I had forgotten about Harry, he would have been at the top of unfunny people.

    All of the above apart from Harry Hill for me, I’ve always quite liked him.

    I remember when Norman Vaughan took over The Golden Shot from Bob Monkhouse and my dad remarked that they’d managed to find the unfunniest comic in Britain for the job.

    They followed him up with Charlie Williams, the black bloke who grinned a lot who was as funny a one of my burst haemorrhoids.

    Another unfunny grinner was Don McLean who did Crackerjack, he used to come into Hepworth Menswear in Solihull in the early 80’s as he was mates with my boss, he was a miserable arrogant b a s t a r d off stage and never cracked a smile if not working.

    Les Dennis is another false f u c k e r.

    I met him at a sports trade show in around 1993 in Bournemouth and he was with his new girlfriend Amanda Holden, she was lovely and chatty but he was a pompous, unfunny f u c k wit.

    Ben Elton makes me want to smash the TV screen.

    Ted Rodgers who did 3-2-1 with Dusty Bin, I saw him at The Night Out in Brum in 1978, it was a toss up as to whether it was him or the chicken in the basket that was worse, absolute garbage the both of them.

    Most of today’s left wing young comics are also c r a p, if you have to try hard to be funny then you’re wasting your time and mine.

    For me, Peter Kay is genius, I can watch clips of him time after time and find them funny every time even though I know what’s coming.

    “Old people, you can’t beat ‘em…..you’d love to but you just can’t!” 🤣🤣🤣

    Well you would like the irritating little knob with your medical history Mick, your mind's eye probably sees him as some kind of kindred spirit to your Jap's Eye 🤣🤣🤣 .

    I must be bereft of a sense of humour cause I have always found perhaps 99% of the comedy entertainment business absolutely dire.
    That said I do have a wicked black sense of humour. But in general I avoid comedy shows and the like because they just aren't any good in my opinion.
    I did see a work colleague busy on her phone recently while walking in the corridor. I was a bit behind them when they approached an automatic door that was not functioning properly and been busy texting, they face planted straight into the door.
    And with a good smack too. They quickly looked around to see if they had been seen and saw me doubled up pyssing myself. It brought joy to me each time I thought of it for that day.....
