As an American who is curious about all aspects of British culture, I was eager to learn about the British comedians who have been listed here. Unfortunately, I was able to find only a few web pages devoted to them. Besides the ones in my message above, I have found these:

Benny Hill
Bobby Clark & Paul McCullough
Morecambe and Wise

By the way, is there a place in Britain where one can still see old-fashioned music-hall type comedy? If so, I will try to put in on my itinerary on my next visit (maybe next year).
