If you could have a dinner party with 4 comedians , who would they be?

[BeCraftyFatball]

I will start
Tim Vine
Lee Mack
David Mitchell
Jon Richardson

Bob Mortimer
Alan Carr
Julian Clary
Robin Williams

I saw Julian Clarey live in a London pub's upstairs room in the late 1980s! He was The Joan Collins Fan Club back then with Fanny the Wonder Dog, and I think I remember him doing his rendition of Leader of the Pack - I was too pissed busy laughing to know what was going on. He was brilliant.

Jack Dee
Jasper Carrott
Lee Hurst
Dawn French

Rhod Gilbert
Jack Whitehall
Ed Gamble
Angela Barnes

Victoria Wood
Dave Allen
Desiree Burch
Eddie Izzard

I would love to have Jerry Sadowitz but he's pretty antisocial I think so don't think he would be much use or stay long.

It seems a bit mean as DP is an ex comic and I've not invited him. But I can have dinner with him anytime

Grace Campbell
Joanne McNally
Alice Brine
Michelle DeSwartz
Sad I can only have 4 because if I could add Christopher Hall I would!!

Robin Williams, if he counts.
George Carlin
Jack Dee
Tony Slattery
Sarah Keyworth
Sorry, can't count!
Stewart Lee and Richard Herring if I am allowed two more (plus three of mine have passed).

Caroline Aherne
Matt Berry
Spike Milligan
Pam Ayres

As a PP above I could think of loads of different foursomes but that will do for now.

Off the top of my head
Ricky Gervais
Lee Mack
Alan Carr
Bradley Walsh

Billy Conelly
Bob Mortimer
Victoria Wood
Dame Edna Everage

And a USA list:

Robin Williams
Steven Wright
Richard Pryor
Steve Martin

Dawn French
Susan Calman
Caroline Aherne
Victoria Wood

It would be a girls night in. There would be lots of wine, chocolate and chips.

I didn’t realise we could have dead people

Linda Smith
Richard Ayodayo ( can’t spell)
Graham Lineham
Ricky Gervais

Is my alternative list

But then I’d also like that bloke who played Fletcher in Porridge and Eric Morecombe. And maybe Bob Monkhouse. Maybe I should have a modern comedian list and a vintage list.

Bob Mortimer
David Mitchell
Sarah Millican
Jo Brand

Oh and if one of mine couldn't make it, Michael McIntyre

Aargh. Just seen Jack Dee. May have to replace Linda with Jack.

Kathy Burke
Ricky Gervais
Michelle de Swarte
Dave Chappelle

Sean Lock.
Bob Mortimer.
Rik Mayall and Adrian Edmonson.

And my list of comedians who used to make me laugh so much, I thought I might die, but can now barely look at:

Woody Allen
Michael Richards
Eddie Izzard
Frankie Boyle

Bob Mortimer
Paul Whitehouse
Kathy Burke
Alan Davis

Rik Mayall
John Cleese
David Mitchell
Russell Brand

Shaparak Khorsandi
Matt Forde
Bella Hull
David Mitchell

The Two Ronnies
Morecombe and Wise

John Finnemore (because he is just so nice)
Victoria Wood (though I suspect she wouldn't go out of her way to be alovely guest -- too self-sufficient for that)
Vicky Pepperdine (because her Hudson and Pepperdine Show is sooo funny and never seemed to get as much praise as it deserved)
The Pin (I know they are two people but they could share a seat)

And because I did male comedians, then female comedians:

Victoria Wood
Wanda Sykes
Gilda Radner
Lil Wenker (specifically as Bangtail - one of the funniest acts I have ever seen on stage, so much so, my DH genuinely thought I might need assistance as I seemed to be unable to breath)
