Me and my lad went to the Arena tonight to see him, now on tv I like Rob, but Ive had funnier bouts of toothache. He was absolutely shyte.
 
Wasn’t there last night but he’s a very funny and talented man in my view.

I saw his brother Peter tweet about last night so I thought I’d have a look at the reviews,they’re very good.
 
Saw him in a small theatre in Stockport a few years ago. Thought he was very funny. Quite daft, quite old school. Very ‘Uncle Bryn’.
 
The average age of the audience must have been 55 plus. Just found his singing on a par of club compere, and his interaction with the crowd bland at best. One or 2 funny highlights but overall found it very underwhelming.
We should have gone to Forest probably had a better time !!

I sat on my peloton, watching the snooker, and listening to the radio thinking ‘thank goodness I didn’t go to Nottingham :)
 
My father-in-law went to see him just before COVID hit and said he was pretty rubbish - surprisingly - as we all like him.
 
The only comedian I've seen do a full set and not be awful has been Rhod Gilbert, though I'd been self-medicating for a few hours ahead of that particular gig.

That hairy Geordie was the last one I saw, and I only left at the interval as I felt it'd have been rude to leave earlier.

Comedy club nights, where you've a compère and 3 or 4 different acts is my preference over watching some poor soul dying on stage for 90 minutes.
 
Most of the "modern day" comedians are cràp, I sometimes think the audience has been plied with crystal meths to make them laugh at most of the content, give me Dave Allen any day...
 
Rob Brydon singing a dour version of a Dylan Thomas poem is not my idea of entertainment. People around me looking at each other all thinking...WTF!
 
Saw him with Lee Mack and David Mitchell down the Grand before covid, could have sold our tickets for a fair few bob as they were front row seats, wish we had now . My wife generally laughs at anything but even she was disappointed. Best show i ever saw was Phoenix nights live in Manchester, also very good were Micky Flanagan and Greg Davies. Rob Brydon thinks he's much funnier than he actually is.
 
Can we have some less controversial discussions please.

Today after reading about Rob Brydon, the Glammy awards, walking football and Wordle my stress levels are going through the roof

I like apple pie and don't care who knows it.
