Only ever seen him on Cats Does Countdown but like his stuff.
Imagine he's very marmite though.0 -

Very entertaining0
-
Can’t stand him, don’t know if I should find him amusing or thoughtful or is it something I don’t understand?
And using the title Dr as if he is really entitled to it. Well maybe he is but isn’t it bad form to use Dr if it’s honouree?
Also his hair winds me up.1 -
Saw him last year. Fantastic?0
-
Do I have to ring early for emergency appointments ?
Never heard of him0 -
Saw him at Ally Pally in 1981 with the Slits, the Pop Group and the Raincoats.0
-
Snap, Crackle and Bop is a wonderful album.1

He does what he does brilliantly. Am a fan.1

De La Warr just down the road from me but I’ll give it a swerve thanks.0
-
Funny on Cats does Countdown but not sure if I would want to watch a whole gig of his1
-
Liked him when he does little snippets on cats does countdown, then saw him live at a festival but got bored half way through his set, so I left to go see something else.0
-
Ok in cameo appearances and one off’s......obviously a very talented fella.
Despite that, there’s no way I could sit through an entire live performance.
Twenty to thirty minutes would be my cut off point l reckon.0 -
He was completely pissed and not very funny last time I watched him live.0
-
Fucking brilliant1
-
A big fan since the late ‘70s when he and Patrick Fitzgerald were lauded as the punk poets. I’m amazed he’s still going strong seeing as he looked very ill even then.0
-
He’s very very funny live. Seen him a couple of times, best friend is a big fan. Top bloke0
-
He cracks me up....saw him supporting Elvis Costello in 1978 and down in Rochester about 5 years ago, bit of a break in between but still very funny. He's part poetry, part stand-up now, like someone said it’s great he’s still going, he’s never looked exactly healthy!1

Saw him in a tent on Blackheath once, the late Malcolm Hardee was host, he was top of the bill but so poor I walked out.
Saw him about a year or so later in the Cricketers pub by the Oval and he was excellent.
Considering the kind of performer he is, I quite like that up and down aspect of him.
One of my favourites for that kind of thing, but much lighter and sillier is John Hegley.

Malcolm Hardy - Another funny clever bloke. I was fortunate enough to have a good beer in his company on a few occasions1

I went out with his ex girlfriend in the late 90s. She dumped me quite quickly.seth plum said:Saw him in a tent on Blackheath once, the late Malcolm Hardee was host, he was top of the bill but so poor I walked out.
