Billy Connolly (before he got lured to Hollywood).
The Big Yin in full flow is killingly funny.
Tommy Cooper,the late great British comedian.His magic tricks were appalling,very funny,and had me in agony.Sorely missed.

Robert Benchley (1889 - 1945)
It took me fifteen years to discover that I had no talent for writing.
But I couldn't give it up because by then I was too famous.
The humorous Robert Charles Benchley wrote numerous whismsical whirlwinds. He once wrote, I had just dozed off into a stupor when I heard what I thought was myself talking to myself. I didn't pay much attention to it, as I knew practically everything I would have to say to myself, and wasn't particularly interested. In addition to being a genius joke writer, Benchley was also a well-loved actor of the screen and radio.
