Who's your favourite British comedian?

[jameshall]

The pause before poetry was brilliant. Coogan said he liked key because he didn't know why he was funny.

[starmole]

Tim Key, you did Partridge full justice mate. Bravo.

[midierror]

Tim was absolutely SUPERB in mid morning matters. He's the perfect accompniment to the Alan Partridge creation

[Seventeen_Seconds]

Massively underrated actor, his comic timing is absolutely perfect, probably the best I've seen. He was fantastic in the peep show as Gerry but he's at his best with Steve Coogan.

[habbinlad]

Went to school with Tim, and he's one of the most humble and talented people you'd ever want to meet.

[nickyjlyons]

I'm sure Tim knows this deep down, but he has played THE major role in keeping Alan alive

[AdAstra]

His subtlety throughout Mid Morming Matters was absolutely sublime.

[krisinsaigon]

If you’re going to play Hamlet on stage, for an actor, Rosencratz & Guildenstern Are Dead is one of the top two best plays to play him in

[gibgun]

A memorable, hilarious and essential ingredient to Mid Morning Matters.

Can’t stress enough how important Tim’s work was to the success of that show!

If you're watching in 1080p you can actually smell his hangover, love you Tim x

[metromikey]

I knew from the first time seeing this guy work that I would like everything he does. Thought he added so much to mid morning matters and this time. Will watch anything this man is in as I do with Coogan.

[jimcabtv]

His performance in Mid Morning Matters is one of the next comedy performances I have ever soon in my life. The subtlety and little nuances are just spellbinding. Lifelong partridge fan and MMM is by far my favorite, not least of all because of Sidekick Simon's character. Sublime

Great to hear from Tim.

He is fantastic on Mid Morning Matters.
Also hilarious in Lifes To Short interviewing Warrck Davies ... “ Star Dwarf “

[ibanez]

This guy’s a genius, not over used which is the magic formula 😊

[butterflymoon]

He is a fantastic actor. Just fantastic.

[raymondsmith]

His charity worker role in Saxondale is amazing, He bounces off of Coogan's brilliance.

[geoffsaunderson]

Totally underrated, the guys borderline genius

[tomsawer]

Tim was outstanding in Midmorning Matters, he got it absolutely spot on, the subtle confusion, eye rolling etc was perfection. Cringeworthy comedy at its finest

[tomb]

"an almost overwhelming problem" 🤣 this guy was so damn good in mid morning matters. Seen his stand-up as well, absolutely brilliant
