Something like that - but probably a more contemporary paradigm.

Don't use flowery language with CBS, it can only encourage him

Pair-of-dimes ???

Wasn't going to say a word until Phykell piped in, and FYI Phykell, paradigm is a scientific rather than an obscure flowery term and the word deserves to be burned from our collective memory

Ah. I see you are an alumni of the APoL school of comedy with such flowery formatting.

Jimmy Carr isn't what you'd expect. The biggest laugh he got all night was when he tripped over a prop. I'm a massive fan and I was disappointed. Without people around him to wittily snipe at like he does on TV (and does better than anyone) he's just not the same.

Al Murray for me is the best comedian on the circuit and the only other one I've been to see, that man is a genius. 2.5 hours he went on for not including breaks. Incredible.

I like how Al Murray has the initiative to do some of his shows in an entirely inpromptu manner - amazingly quick mind I think

The same certainly applies for Dara O'Brien - very clever comedy.

As for Jimmy Carr - I don't particularly rate him as a comedian, he only seems to generate 'humour' in the humiliation of others: perhaps he's just not my thing though as he's obviously popular enough to still be around!
