I thought Mark Watson was a bit rubbish actually. My favourite from that show was the first one, the unkown Scottish bloke. I thought he was really good. Rhod Gilbert can be funny, but I would prefer it if he did his act in his normal voice, rather that putting on that over-the-top hammed up delivery. I like the Canadian guy too, he's one of Mr Ys favourites . Mr Y is a big stand-up comedy fan, we see lots of the less known people. I can never remember their names either.
I was knackered and falling asleep by the end of it (we watched on the iPlayer Sunday night), so I didn't really see Rhod Gilbert, but I saw him on Live at the Apollo a while back and didn't really find him funny. I also liked the Scottish guy at the start, he was very good, but I did like Mark Watson too.. but not as good as he can be on Mock the Week et al.
I love stand up, but I have only been to a handful of gigs.
