I was listening to his podcast tonight as i was putting dd4 to bed, i think he could laugh me into bed quite easily

fishflange · 24/08/2009 22:55

my earnest friend said the other week that my dh looks and sounds just like him. Unfortunately he isn't funny. Or smiley. Or chatty really

tethersend · 24/08/2009 22:58

I saw him in Stoke Newington once, carrying his baby in a sling. Although this jarred my brain a bit, I am with you OP...

Platesmasher · 24/08/2009 23:00

god yes yabu. he might be funny, but only in verrry small doses, i get the feeling i need a shower if i watch him for any length of time

Mamazon · 24/08/2009 23:11

for all you lovers, he is on live at the apollo on dave now

Wonderstuff · 24/08/2009 23:15

He's very funny, wrong, but funny. I wouldnt though - Russell Howard on the other hand, hes lovely.

millenniumfalcon · 24/08/2009 23:23

nooooo not russell, dara by a country mile

noddyholder · 24/08/2009 23:25

He is hilarious but hideous!

whingingDailyHateMail · 24/08/2009 23:28

MMM I would like to corrupt Russell Howard, he's very pretty. And too young.

But I would let Frankie Boyle corrupt me anyday. Prefer him without the beard though

honeydew · 24/08/2009 23:33

I think his joke about 'queer eye for the straight guy' is really funny. He's not good looking as such just normal.

He does a lot on Mock the Week. I can only cope with him in small doses though ! There are much funnier commedians than him out there but I love Live at the Apollo.

You are in love with him? I prefer Toby Stephens myself or Sean Bean depending on my mood!

Sexy, handsome commedians? Not many around -there's a young Irish chap whose quite nice- was on the Apollo a few weeks back. Not Dara O'Brian. Forgotten his name but he's attractive anyhow.

Are men really more attractive if they can make you laugh? Dunno what I think really.If your DH doesn't mind- stay in love!

millenniumfalcon · 24/08/2009 23:38

Are men really more attractive if they can make you laugh?

yes. by an order of magnitude.
