Tim Vine

Tim Vine is my kind of comedian: a man who fires off puns and one-liners like a machine gun and simply moves to the next when one misses. That relentless approach looks effortless but actually demands enormous nerve and precision in timing. His turn on Not Going Out showed he could act as well as gag, and the fact that he writes joke books reveals a real devotion to wordplay as a craft. I have huge respect for performers who fold genuine cleverness into something that just sounds silly. He makes intelligence look like pure fun.
