Yeah, Chris Rock erm....rocks!

At one time I've downloaded as many sketches of him as I could find on the net. This guy is great! His 'bigger and blacker' show (black people vs niggers was a part of that show) is really hilarious.
But he's obviously inspired by Eddy Murphy. Murphy's 'delirious' and 'Raw' shows were so cool. His classic "I had sex with her, but I make love to you routine" really is a classic.

That aside, I'm really a sucker for English comedy too. I really like Monty Python (of course - ministry of silly walks anyone?), Dave Allen (does this guy still perform ?), Jasper Carrot and Hale & Pace. (to name but a few)
