I couldn't vote for Pete, just too nasty in the end. And Saunders did that crap series about the W.I. (or whatever it was).

And Vivienne Vyle. *shudders*

But I'm trying to take into account who was best in the double act when they were both on screen, rather than studying each's individual work before or since.

Oh yeah... *shudders*

I'm taking it all in, including their actual personalities. :)

11) Reeves or Mortimer?
12) Abbott or Costello?
13) Mitchell or Webb?
14) Horne or Corden - Hard one that.
15) Punt or Dennis?

16) Lee or Herring?

(if I may be so bold...)

17. Gervais or Merchant?

11) Reeves (just.)
12) Abbott or Costello? (I've never seen a second of their stuff so really can't have a valid opinion.)
13) Mitchell
14) Corden
15) Dennis
16) Herring
17) Gervais

16) Herring - The lesser of two evils. But it's like choosing between Hitler and Mugabe imo. ;)
