David Baddiel and Rob Newman, and also Steve Punt and Hugh Dennis,

all cambridge graduates ffs. and as funny as c.ancer should neverhave been on telly, presumably the oxbridge connection.

coogan, jack dee, frank skinner and brydon far funnier and ddn't do oxbridge.

david mitchell did do cambridge and is very funny on the other hand.

4th street pretty much spot on (apart from Skinner being funny).

peter cook and john cleese and others were brilliant - amongst the funniest ever. but they seem to think they can get just get any old w.anker from footlights and chuck them on tv and it will be a success. baddiel is embarassingly unfunny. as is the baldy c.unt off of mock the week. do they not have some sort of vetting procedure for these people. Did they not look at david mitchell's and andy parsons' work and decide that one is talented and funny and one most certainly is not. Or did they just give them both their chances without looking at anything they had done simply because they went to cambridge?

Rob Newman was hilarious

David Baddiel however is the luckiest man alive, finding two partners in one lifetime, who were able to tow him up the comedy success ladder, despite him being as funny as cancer of the ar$e.

Punt and Dennis, my god.

Baddiel said doing comedy with those two was like trying to record a concept album with Showaddywaddy... .

Yeah, David Baddiel has done well off the back of Rob Newman and Frank Skinner and his routine of a couple of Jewish gags. The first couple of series of Fantasy Football were good though, but I'm sure a fair few people could have performed his role better. Coogan and Brydon are very funny, but I do not get Jack Dee's appeal at all. Material average, fake grumpy old man delivery tired and lacks charisma imo.

Andy Parsons, according to wiki.....


He was asked by the then Head of Comedy Entertainment at the BBC, Paul Jackson, to submit ideas for what turned out to be the last series of Noels House Party, however all his ideas were rejected. [3]

spot on.... except that Skinner wasn't funny either.

Frank Skinner was funny. just over exposed - which is the problem with most of v.good comedians eg. ricky gervais, peter kay etc the list is endless.
By:

Nope, can't have Skinner at all. Why he persisted on trying to sing as well is beyond me!! But, each to their own I suppose.

incidentally have watched a bit of dylan moran today, made me laugh. I'm afraid I put him on a list of "pretty sh.itty moaning about george bush and the daily mail bla bla bla irish" comedians that includes ed byrne and dara obrien. Thought Dylan Moran was pretty sh.it hot tbh. Will watch black books next time it is on.

Speedpro couldn't agree more. Newman and Skinner made this unfunny man a fortune.
