Heard that umpteen times still gets me 😂 his timing is brilliant. Some 1 liner comedians don’t give you enough time to enjoy a joke before hitting out with another, but this guys mastered it for me 👏🏻
Honestly, I was expecting to groan and turn off, but this routine was really good. It's really not easy to do genuinely amusing quick fire one line jokes like that, especially without having a good chunk of them flop.
I always love this joke about how he went to the bookstore and tell the clerk "hello , i am looking for a book titled how to deal with rejection without killing........... do you have it?" lmao
I first saw him 25 years ago, and the quality of his one liners is always a joy. Pound for pound, Tim Vine is better value.... but the problem is remembering them all.
Smart enough for intellectuals, simple enough for everyone. Great voice and delivery. Only trouble is much of whats available is the same or similar material. This one is mostly new stuff, and its good.
Yep. RUclips is both a blessing and a curse. Going to a live gig is always a unique experience, even on consecutive nights at the same venue, but binge-watching 8 or 9 years of a comic's gigs, one after the other, gives a very distorted view of a man and his material. You'll often see Comments condemning a comic for presenting the same joke to different audiences in different countries, several years apart. Same set-up, same delivery, same punchline, same follow-on, same laughter... Because funny is funny. But for today's trolls, seeing it twice on 6 different DVD recordings within half an hour is somehow... wrong. Sigh. It's largely irrelevant criticism because the theatres or studios are full and the audiences are clearly having a good time, but it's so easy to search for individual references to existing routines these days that a critic will always be able to find something to moan about. If they had to scan and Stop and Play and Pause and Rewind and Stop and Fast-Forward and Stop and Play through a pile of creaky VHS tapes to check a comic's material, we'd hear a lot less of the "He did that on Mock The Week 11 years ago!" and "Jimmy Carr's stand-up is always the same!" nonsense.
Lot's of one liner comedians are better, which is why people have actually heard of them. Like Steven Wright, Jim Gaffigan, Rodney Dangerfield, Mitch Hedberg and Norm Macdonald.
He's much better than any of those three. I checked them out here on You Tube and can report that the timing and delivery of Stewart Francis is far better than all those 3 American dudes.
Funny you mentioned Mitch i thought the same thing, but its the non sequitur material i realised. Mitch and Rodney are my top two, Mitch was taken far too soon, i can only imagine how his material would have matured by now, man he had me in pains of laughter.
Ah, Stewart -- a solid, always entertaining stand-up pro -- and a fine ball hockey player, too, with whom I had the pleasure of playing during a Montreal Just For Laughs Reebok Cup finale.
Effortless skill and so beautifully timed. One of my favoutite comics. I've no idea how he manages to remember all these jokes, or that he's able to keep writing new ones. But I'm very glad he does and will hopefully continue to do so 🤣🤣🤣🫡👍🏻👏🏼👍🏻👏🏼
I found this truly funny man on here, as I've switched on the comedy roadshow lots of times and am yet to get a decent joke, never mind a comedian. Most are as funny as a dose.
This guy has more funny jokes in 6 min than most new comedians have in a whole hour. He's funny!
Amazing - I don't find him funny in the slightest. After 3 minutes I can't stand any more!
There are some good jokes in there after 3 minutes. @@twangbarfly
Stand up for people who can't stand stand ups!@@twangbarfly
And his jokes are clean. To be funny you don't need to mention cunts or wanking or fuckwads or anything.
@twangbarfly he's OK....what comedian do you find funny
Heard that umpteen times still gets me 😂 his timing is brilliant. Some 1 liner comedians don’t give you enough time to enjoy a joke before hitting out with another, but this guys mastered it for me 👏🏻
Timing is everything in comedy & hes spot on
Anthony Jesselnik has ace timing but in a different way
Yeah his timing and delivery is flawless
"He lives just a stones throw away." That one got me.
The joke. Not the stone. Thankfully.
🦆!
🤣🤣🤣
Finally a online comedian who really is a comedian. Well done.
so true
what do you mean 'online comedian'?! He's been around for over 15 years as an established stand up
I thought he meant “one line” comedian. But only if he’s never heard of Steven Wright or Mitch Hedburg 🤷🏻♂️
Honestly, I was expecting to groan and turn off, but this routine was really good. It's really not easy to do genuinely amusing quick fire one line jokes like that, especially without having a good chunk of them flop.
@@listerofsmeg884Was. He’s been retired for a few years.
I always love this joke about how he went to the bookstore and tell the clerk "hello , i am looking for a book titled how to deal with rejection without killing........... do you have it?" lmao
“In fact, just a stones throw away got me so bad 😂😂😂😂
Stewart really is one of the best. The gags are so good you can go back and watch them time after time,
Never heard of him, but now I can’t wait to hear more from Stewart Francis! Hysterical!
The first 3 shows? He has online are brilliant
He's been around for ages and brilliantly clever I like "Having a blow job in a lift from an old lady is wrong on so many levels" !🤣🤣👍🇬🇧
Unfortunately he's retired from comedy, so you probably won't
Tour de francis
Outstanding in his field
Pun gent
I first saw him 25 years ago, and the quality of his one liners is always a joy. Pound for pound, Tim Vine is better value.... but the problem is remembering them all.
Brilliant, clever, joyous !
Fabulous comic. How he remembers so much stuff. Brilliant.
Remembers his jokes, not history
It's 5 minutes.... people do theatre for like 3 hours reciting dialogue
Smart enough for intellectuals, simple enough for everyone. Great voice and delivery. Only trouble is much of whats available is the same or similar material. This one is mostly new stuff, and its good.

Stewart Francis is a master of the one liner. Few are better.
Yes, I also like Nobody.
Tim Vine
Ye Tim Vine is great too, and Milton Jones, and Gary Delaney.
Lot's of one liner comedians are better, which is why people have actually heard of them. Like Steven Wright, Jim Gaffigan, Rodney Dangerfield, Mitch Hedberg and Norm Macdonald.
@@toshikotanaka3249 I've heard of 2 of them.
And Stewart
Go be a twat somewhere else
I'd love to remember his lines but my memory is terrible. Very clever comedian. Always funny.
I'm the same .
.the only one I manage to remember is "I was going to join a debating team, but was talked out of it"
@@chriskennedy2298 I only remembered the j-lo jello joke 😂
ruclips.net/video/z0XHzEBasto/видео.html hes been doing the exact same jokes for years
We know what you asked for from the fairy godmother.
....so you weren't good at History then.
This guy is a riot😂😂😂❤
Absolutely love him.
Brilliant, clean comedy without the F word in sight. Well done.
Totally agree.
yeah, homophobes really ruin a set
Brilliant. I have watched this routine several times. He had the other comedians on Mock The Week laughing out loud, too.😂. Sign of a good comedian 👏
He’s got dad jokes that are actually funny, nice and gentle, no screaming cursing political ranting like certain young posh boy comedians
My favorite one-liner comedian.
He's right up there with Rodney Dangerfield, Steven Wright and Mitch Hedberg!
He's much better than any of those three. I checked them out here on You Tube and can report that the timing and delivery of Stewart Francis is far better than all those 3 American dudes.
Funny you mentioned Mitch i thought the same thing, but its the non sequitur material i realised. Mitch and Rodney are my top two, Mitch was taken far too soon, i can only imagine how his material would have matured by now, man he had me in pains of laughter.
I met Mitch Hedberg once. He asked "Are you a fan?" I replied "No, I am a human."
So glad this popped up in my feed. He is really funny.😂
This is absolutely brilliant a modern take on clever wise cracking joke telling
So so good. Thanks for posting.
Enjoyed that so much I did a standing ovation.
His jokes are absolute corkers. I love the guy....
Never heard of this guy before now. He made me laugh, so 👍
I saw him in 2012 in Northampton and he was brilliant. He signed autographs after and seemed a really nice guy.
Brilliant man. Live long dude...
ppppppppp
How can anybody not like this guy?
Great intelligent comedy, doesn’t have me howling but just realised i sat there grinning for the whole clip!!
What a great act, really well performed by a talented guy. Brilliant Stewart Francis, just brilliant.
His one-liners in the "Scenes We'd Like To See" section of MOCK THE WEEK are brilliant.
one liners are the true comedy art form.
😂😂😂
Never heard of him but loved it!
Stewart Francis is hilarious
Ah, Stewart -- a solid, always entertaining stand-up pro -- and a fine ball hockey player, too, with whom I had the pleasure of playing during a Montreal Just For Laughs Reebok Cup finale.
To me one liner comedy is always so corny, but in the most hilarious way. Cracks me up every time 😂
I can't stand if comedy is corny. Makes me feel like I'm lost in a maize.
Absolutely brilliant smart comedy
Have always loved this gents humour. And the fact he is ‘one of us’ (that being, Canadian) is kinda refreshing, as well.
Are you from Canadia?
@@HelloMyNamesNinoI am
Shouldn't you be hibernating by now?
Oh please, Canada frequently dominates comedy! (keep it up)
@@hensonlaura Certainly Trudeau is a joker.
The coolest, laid- back, brilliant comedian I know of.
I really like this guy 😂 he is hilarious ...thanks for the laughs
I´m pleasantly impressed. I wish you much success, Stewart. 🤗
That was amazing :) Thanks so much
As a Brit living in Canada, I can confirm his last statement. Hilarious - he wouldn’t get away with most of that here 😁
Why is that?
His speaking fluency and skill is as good as you'll find. Maybe that's kind of tied up with charisma but he has great control of his presentation.
Who are you
@@ferise1 me? what?
I read this like it was a one-liner joke...
...but I didn't get it.
Just a stone's throw away🤣🇦🇺
Smart and hilarious 😂😂😂
That dude is awesome. Makes me proud to be a Canadian.
Hahahaha genius comedian! ❤🏆 Have not laughed this hard in a while! 😂❤ Love from 🇸🇪
that was very good, thank you!
Finally a comedian who made me laugh!❤🎉😂
This is the 1st time I've seen this comedian, love him! ❤😂❤
Hilarious. Absolutely hilarious.
Good stuff, really like that !!
He is right up there 😂😂
He is so funny!
Absolute king of the one liner craft.
I used to be against organ transplants but I had a change of heart.
What brought on the change of heart? I hope you get any medical treatment you need and that you are healthy
First time seeing this bloke had a great laugh needed it too. 😁
Thanks for sharing, shared.
Superb, old school one liner comedy is a lost art
Effortless skill and so beautifully timed.
One of my favoutite comics. I've no idea how he manages to remember all these jokes, or that he's able to keep writing new ones. But I'm very glad he does and will hopefully continue to do so 🤣🤣🤣🫡👍🏻👏🏼👍🏻👏🏼
He's retired now
Great material, brilliant delivery.
i wish this clip would never stop
I'd never heard of this guy?... But he is hilarious!!!
that was brilliant i was crying b4 he even got 2 mins in lol
Very funny man. This is real comedy
just watched this for the second time --just as funny
I found this truly funny man on here, as I've switched on the comedy roadshow lots of times and am yet to get a decent joke, never mind a comedian. Most are as funny as a dose.
You're the best Stewart. Brilliant. I hope to see you live at the Appollo one day.. 😂
Unlikely. He retired a couple of years ago. Or did he?
Excellent stuff!
Brilliant....Top class 😂
First time viewing I'm falling in love and I'm an old guy from Texas saying hello Happy New Year
Good to see a classic style again.
Very funny. Quite brilliant. As far as cinematography goes, I especially like the blank screen shots of the audience in total darkness.
You need a new screen
@@WorksopGimp You need to turn down your brightness. Bad for the eyes.
One of my faves he's simply brilliant 👏 x
_I never could work out why a frisbee appears larger the closer it gets........and then it hit me_ .
One of the first i heard with him😂😂😂 still one of the best.
Next to... swimming in to shore...😅
"Is this shit funny in Canada"? Absolutely, to the 10% of us that still have a sense of humour. Great stuff!
These one liners keep me good company. Good job Stew!💔
Brilliant, very funny and very good
So good. Ages so well.
I saw him a fair old while ago and one of his jokes has stayed with me.... "It was like a dwarf at a barbeque.... The steaks were too high!" 😂
I love this! Hilarious!!!!
My girlfriend thinks im a stalker.....well shes not my girlfriend yet😅😅😅
😂😂😂😂😂 tell her you have a girlfriend
This dude is awesome 🤣🤣🤣
Great comedy very clever and such good timing
So good, bravo sir 👍🏻👏🏻👌
Brilliant
Absolute class! 👍
Bloody hilarious 😂
Wow. I'm surprised we DON'T know this guy. He's got a great schtick. Funny stuff, well-delivered.
great set!
He’s very good. 😂. 🇬🇧
This fellow is very funny. Great material and excellent deadpan delivery.
Never heard of him before watching this video. This dude is great!!!
Absolutely on top of his game
It's been a long while since I laughed out loud at a comedian. Still waiting. Just kidding. You were that guy!
He's absolutely BRILLIANT.
Excellent
Just the best !!🤣
Brilliant...
Nothing else needs saying.!
