    His comedy actually reminds me of Paul Foot. The same sort of "Comedian as Insane Alien from Outer Space" routine.

      You sound like you got a chip on your shoulder and you're an annoying person. Someone saying that is just meant to break ice and be a compliment.

    That's not a half bad Jim Carrey impersonation for his American accent.

    Listened to Guy’s comedy bits before but didn’t realise he was a voice actor in Bigtop Burger. How could I have been so blind?? Or deaf?
