Which stand-up comedian is the best?

Had trouble getting it to 10 out of that list.

Did the usual of Hicks, Pryor, Williams and Carlin first though and built it up around that.

Was pleasently surprised to see Rob Newman in amongst that lot though. He's a very clever chap and his comedy is maybe a little too high brown for the general public - who just want knob gags and swearing.

I hope Hicks or someone like that wins, would hate it if one of the 'new' breed of comedians won who blatently AREN'T FUNNY! *Jimmy Carr - I'm looking at you, same with Peter Kay and the other knobbers like that...*
