Really. It's amazing. About the only thing absolutely guaranteed to make me laugh out loud that's on at the moment.

Wow, how could I have got this so wrong? I tend to agree with you nearly everything.

Hello.

Has there ever been such a thing as a stand-up duo?

Closest I can think of is Flight of the Conchords.

There's people like Hale and Peace and the Two Ronnies, but I don't think they ever did stand up together, just sketches.

I think hale and pace started as standup.

There are a few stand up comedy troupes out there, but the ones I've seen are explicitly aiming for a TV gig and fucking it up when they get there. Pappys Fun Club and We are Klang stand out (Although Matthew Crosby and Greg Davies respectively did well out of them from a solo perspective)

Oh, Frisky and Maniche are a duo. If they're still going.

I miss the standup:(

The Raymond and Mr Timpkins Revue.

I think that's what they were called.

Anyway, they were a duo.

Greg Davis is pretty funny ( the guy who played the head of 6th form in the Inbetweeners)

Not seen him live just watched a couple of his DVD's

I've seen him live, he did a bit about a student on a stag do in Amsterdam.

I shall look up some of the duo's. Frisky and Maniche are still going, and are responsible for my favorite Christmas song ever.

I think you must be getting confused somewhere along the line with Shakin Stevens, who did a Christmas song that as any foo knows is the best (and therefore most favourite of all knowledgeable and awesome and just plainly correct people ever).
