Quote: Walker @ June 19, 2007, 5:59 PMWhich i don't get, Jason atleast makes jokes. Peter Kay just says "Have you ever noticed..." followed by something along the lines of "tables are made out of wood!" and everyone laughs. I hate Kay as much as the next guy, put to call someone a poor man's Peter Kay is like calling someone a poor man's hobo.
Amen brother!
Thing to remember about Peter Kay is that he is a populist comedian. He found a way of appealing to the masses and went for it. It does therefore mean that most 'comedy nerds' (of which I am one) hate him because he's not a 'proper' comedian.
Manford is a 'proper' comedian and tells some damn fine jokes/stories. Give him time to bed into the role and just remember back to when he guested on Dave's team last series and slammed Piers Morgan into touch!
