    The Australian, Jim Jefferies is my current favourite along with Jim Carrey, Robin Williams, Will Ferrell and a host of impersonators, mainly British.

    However, for the life of me, I don't find anything funny about Philomena Cunk - Diane Morgan who was in After Life with Ricky Gervais.

    Is it just me?

    Actually, I found myself laughing a lot. Perhaps it was the juxtaposition of her deadpan delivery of misinformation and misunderstanding, with his preternatural kindness and patience in the face of her utter stupidity.

    I’d never heard of her before.

    Must admit I don't know who most modern day comedians are. I'm still stuck in the 60's and 70's when it comes to stand up comedians.

    I literally had tears rolling down my cheeks watching Mel Brooks' Cary Grant story!

    Did you know that Norman Wisdom was immensely popular in Albania and other communist bloc countries?

    His childhood however, was pretty rough to say the least.
