    But for someone to be a "comedy genius" do you not have to laugh at his witticisms rather
    than at him?

    That counts Tommy Cooper out then

    not quite in the same league, but what about Adam Hart-Davies?

    The english scientist who demonstrates all those experiments around the country.

    I am not sure that he is a scientist.

    That'll be 'Dr Adam Hart-Davies' to you! :-P

    ...he is a bona-fide scientist. He did Chemistry at Oxford and a DPhil at York, and worked in the
    petro-chemical industry before becoming a presenter.

    He was on a celebrity version of Mastermind a while back. He wiped the floor with everyone else on
    his specialist subject, the History of Science, then failed totally on General Knowledge.

    He did have a very strangely coloured bike designed by Mike Burrows, but it got nicked. On the
    h*lm*t issue, he tends to sit underneath one when on the bike!

    Regards,

    Pete.

    Boris Johnson is a comedy genius.

    Or a buffoon, depending on how you look at it.
