Jimmy Carr is an english comedian well known for his dry, sataristical humor, or anti-humor. He is also the host for the popular game show on comedy central, "Distraction", and the British TV show "Your Face or Mine". In 2003, he was listed in The Observer as one of the 50 funniest acts in British comedy.

British does not mean English. Britain consists of four nations: England, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales. NEVER call an Irishman "british" because he (or she) will hurt you.
We LOVE laughing at ourselves and everyone else.(We call this "taking the piss".) We have a pretty evil sense of humour, but that's the best kind! We excel at black comedy, sarcasm, satire, understatement, and comedy in geneal. Alot of people don't 'get' our humour, but i suppose that's down to cultural differences. We're proud of our sense of humour.
We don't all speak posh, like the queen. There are SO many accents in the UK. I've lived in Britain all my life, and I've only met a handful of posh people. I hate that people think we're all upperclass and aristocratic,. Not true ATALL!
We don't sit around having tea parties, with china tea cups, and frilly tablecloths. We don't use words like "cheerio", we DO NOT love the queen.

1. Dawn French and Jennifer Saunders
2. The greatest female double act in the history of British comedy. In fact, the greatest in the history of all comedy.
3. Two of the loveliest women you could ever hope to meet (a privilege afforded to a fortunate few among their legions of fans...this author included)
4. Fatty and Moo (If confused, read "Dear Fatty" by Dawn French)
5. A sizeable, wacky brunette and her taller, thinner, blonder partner in crime.
6. The very best antidote to stress, sadness, anxiety, and anger; a true anti-drug.

the scottish version of "phil mccracken". Pronounced "Fill Ma' Cavity" Essentially a humorous alias to use on school sign-in forms or to identify ones'self as to unsuspecting law enforcement personnel, as the humour in such a joke is two-fold: from the indivuidual pronouncing the name, and from his/her puzzlment and sudden realization as to what they have justr said.

Used to great comic effect in an episode of the British comedy "The Thin Blue Line" starring Rowan Atkinson, where the police force of a small town struggles with the stinging wit of a London baddie.

Whats it like to be British? An understanding of subtle irony in comedy is very important as is a self depreciating sense of humour. Hating the French and most other Europeans would be an advantage but viewing the former colonys as "naughty children" when they start wars or international feuds etc. Manners and a sense of fair play are also very important. I personally do have bad teeth and see no real malice in americans making jokes about the british teeth (its just a joke!!)
Oh and on a final note we gave the French mad cow disease LOL!!!

From the British Comedy series, Monty Python's Flying Circus. Just another fictional character like jesus
