Hi to all here.
I'm not a writer or anything, basically just a young, inconsistent humour blogger (attracted interest from book publishers but also struggle to maintain a regular readership if that makes sense) who's trying to get into a different medium. due to my current location and sense of humour, I don't think I can do standup so am currently reading scripts and such to see what that might be like.
My favourite British comedy would include ones involving:
The whole Iannucci/Morris/Lee/etc clan,
Paul Whitehouse, Chris Langham, John Cleese, Sean Lock, Renwick, Rowan Atkinson, Harry Hill, Daniel Kitson, Dave Allen.... I'm just listing stuff so I'll stop.
From America I'm particularly fond of Garry Shandling, Woody Allen, Bill Cosby and Chris Rock.
