Danny Bhoy's funniest gags

Monday, March 21, 2011
Right up there with Billy Connolly, Danny Bhoy is one of Scotland's funniest comedians. He's touring Oz in April and May this year and with tickets on sale now, you can check out some of his funniest jokes from his hilarious career here.

1. "I'm not going to go on a safari with a man who can't whisper. It's like having a snooker referee with Tourette's."

2. "I hate these people who give you advice if you see a dangerous animal. Pretend that you're dead. You won't be pretending for long."

3. "You can tell an awful lot about a person's country by what he eats for breakfast. We in Scotland like a fry-up: bacon, sausage, eggs, beans, chips, whatever. Bring out your dead, we'll have it — as long as it's deep-fried."

4. "The French have a croissant and they then need a lie down. That's not breakfast, it's pastry and we put that on top of a meat pie. It says a lot about the French. 'We're flaky and a little bit gay'."

5. "The crazy Dutch have a ham and cheese sandwich for breakfast and then lots of sex afterwards."

6. "Recently on a menu I saw the most ridiculous thing in my life. 'Corn-fed farm-reared breast of chicken.' I don't care about its childhood."

7. "After the last bell is rung in the pub, no-one wants to go home in Australia, as they'll remember everything."

8. "Late at night on Aussie television, there are only three things on: a replay of rugby, cricket or a four-hour presentation of a steak knife — just in case you fancy cutting a shoe in half — halfway through a meal."

I saw Danny Bhoy in Melbourne a few years back and also in Singapore more recently. There was no foul language at all on either occasion so it's disappointing that he can't be relied upon in this regard. I really enjoyed his shows on both occasions except some of the content is a repeat of other stuff one can see from him on Youtube. I agree with other comments here that to try and see a comedy act without the F-word is a challenge. Maybe Aussies are seen a soft touch in this regard. Pity.
The funniest comedian I have ever seen, an absolute genius!!! Can't wait for the gig!!!
I love a decent comedian but didn't even smile while reading the "best of" Danny Bhoy - maybe it doesn't translate to text very well but I was so disimpressed that I'm now loath to watch any of his live footage. Gosh I wish Jimmy Carr would tour soon.
Love this guy - he rocks!! Have seen him live a couple of times & had a blast! If you have the chance to see him, do so... you will laugh big time! Not bad on the eyes either... love the accent too!
Never heard of him before this.
I saw him when last in Brisbane and also a repeat show on Tv. That being another State. Rate. Maybe better than average but def not up with the above mentioned names by any streach of the imagination. Just a Question, If anybody can answer it. Can a comedian get through a show without foul language. It was done in the past by the greats, why not now. Danny comes on and says "how the F..k are you. I mean give me a break. Time to make us laugh not cringe. Best of luck with that Danny.
The subject heading say's it all. he must be part Australian, to think Australian media companies pedal and endorse him is beyond me. Me"I pick my nose on the toilet, and i ate a piece of pineapple from pizza off the floor". thats funny!! or is it?
