The funniest sketch I’ve ever seen …
Dinner Party Conspiracy from The Armando Iannucci Show. A brilliant series but that sketch stands out.
The funniest TV show I’ve ever seen …
The Day Today or Shooting Stars: I was lucky to have teenage brothers who watched legendary TV comedy. Goodness Gracious Me, too: it was almost surreal to see people the same colour as me on this hilarious, mainstream show.
The funniest heckle I’ve ever had …
I had a gig in a village recently. Some disruptive audience members were removed early on. I was on a bit later and a very loud fireworks display lasted the length of my set. Apparently it was the hecklers. I was heckled by a fireworks display.
The funniest item of clothing I’ve ever owned ...
A fake Arsenal kit with [Ian] Wright on the back. “Arsenal” was spelled “Arseenal” and I think it also said “The “unnerz’ on the front.
The funniest meal I’ve ever eaten …
I had a tofu set meal for two in a Chinese restaurant on a date a while ago. It started fine but got worse with each dish. It might have made her hate me.
The funniest dream I’ve ever had …
Sometimes I dream I’m on stage doing new material. I had one where I said: “And who even rides a camel these days? Probably a guy that plays the flute.” It got an applause break. I was delighted when I woke up, until I realised it made no sense.
The funniest joke I’ve ever heard …
Stewart Lee comparing James Corden liking him to a dog listening to classical music. Arrogant, mean but hilarious in context.
