I will admit that I don't find Harry Hill all that funny either, but that I can be found in the TV Burp audience at least once a series. This is because I blag in on the production ticket, though, and it's filmed at White City and they do a really good line in free booze and food for the blaggers.
Also, I don't think I'll ever stop finding Eddie funny. medusa_nw and I went to his last tour, and I pulled muscles laughing.
I met Eddie Izzard once, many years ago, when he was on Have I Got News For You and shortly before he became meteorically famous. He was much smaller than I thought he'd be, and really sweet. My friends and I used to go pretty much at least once every series back then, and we'd wait afterwards to get guests autographs. Angus Deaton and Paul Merton and Ian Hislop all stared to recognise us, we had all of theirs, so when Izzard was on we didn't bother asking for theirs, we just asked him. He was so touched, he kept saying "you waited for me? for ME? Really?" (turning to friend) "they waited for ME!". He was totally adorable and I wanted to take him home and put him in a box and feed him lettuce.
