This guy may have the best delivery of almost any comic I've ever seen. As an American, so much of this material is esoteric to the UK and about subject matter completely unfamiliar to me, and I'm still falling off my chair listening to it...
Nice shout. If you have not already done so you must check out his TH-cam sketch called PECKHAM. The greatest stand up routine I have ever seen closely followed by Dave Allen teaching his son how to tell the time. Simon Evans and Stewart Francis, the ever giving gifts during the Covid.
@@YvonneWilson312 well,your comment wasn t too hard to understand.by using proper grammar in interpreting your banal comment,i reply.sense of humor isn t about understanding,his humor wasn t up to my standards of good and witty humor.the poor guy isn t funny in my universe.
Love Simon what a brilliant comedian, never seen him give a bad performance a superb funnyman, in my top ten for sure , don't see enough of Simon on TV he would blow most out of the water
@@YvonneWilson312 I don’t think his right wing posturing on stage and on Twitter is an act at all. He’s not half as smart as Colbert was in playing up that role on the Colbert Report.
If you enjoy Evans' work he also does a series on Radio 4 called 'Simon Evans goes to market' all about Economics. Doesn't sound promising but in his hands it's gold!
So him live in Manchester. It was a tour de force. He overran by about 30 mins cos he got on a roll. I was knackered at the end because they just kept coming thick and fast. I reckoned you could estimate the intelligence of audience members by how many of They jokes they understood and laughed at. :)
Cause he's right wing, but from what I hear, they are slowly bringing more right wing comedians to the shows. However the issue is that they're not that funny and also, they don't really slap all politicians while left wingers do.
Absolute genius. A few of you have just discovered him. Check out his "Peckham" sketch. I once described it as the ultimate and definitive 15 mins stand up sketch. Haven't changed my mind. Simon and Stewart Francis are the dogs bollocks!!!
I just want to let you know i saw this act years ago. It left such an impression i remembered it and ive been searching all afternoon. Thank you for the laughs.
I ldnt remember this guys name and couldnt find the vid that i had seen him on... So i looked up "omedian small eyes"... this guy was the first 2 vids.
His comedy is hilarious when you recognise/regard it as parody! A little less so, when you discover that many of the prejudices he conveys are factual and personally held, but presented in a comedic manner!
The best stand up "story teller" in the world. If you have not yet done so, check out his "Peckham" sketch. It remains the joint greatest stand up routine in global history, and has earnt the right to share that distinction with Benny Hill's " I'd reached the age of fourteen" masterpiece.
Greetings from Ireland, sorry but I did forgot your name and I typed in posh British comedian and you came up along with Miles Joop, I knew instantly because I saw Miles a few times on HIGNFY
Ironically, Mr. Evan’s routine about his (small) eyes is a direct resuly of him being heckled about is eyes many years ago. He admitted that the heckle made him uncomfortable but then he decided to incorporate the subject into his routine - the results are ‘eye opening’ ! 😉 (th-cam.com/video/lcEv6XrZefY/w-d-xo.html Above is the link )

To this day this is the best opening line I've seen in any stand-up set. It's perfect.
Nice shout.

I've just had one of those magical 'thank you Internet!' discoveries. Simon's delivery, character, writing are amazing.
Me too!! I love the guy... hilarious
@@paulusintas8627 nobody asked but i think his pseudo educated humor is boring and full platitudeus jokes.
I do like to watch someone who's good at what they do & he's very...
@@teknoaija1762 Sorry you didn't understand this.

An absolute must watch right to the very VERY END.
"It was the middle of winter; has been for years..."
Brilliant!
Come back to this one often , it's excellent 👌
Gotta be the best opening 30 seconds of any stand up !
"It was the middle of winter. Has been for years."
Classic!
Brilliant comedian - so delightfully unapologetic in his tongue-in-cheek "put-downs". Love it.
Best sketch ever. I really like Simon Evans' comedy - we don't see enough of him.
I see too much tbh
@@matildaevans7535 Yes, damn those evil people making you watch him! 😂
Love Simon what a brilliant comedian, never seen him give a bad performance a superb funnyman, in my top ten for sure , don't see enough of Simon on TV he would blow most out of the water
One of the best standup sets of all time!
This guy is a legend. Too bloody funny
This guy is eloquent. I like eloquence. It's a pleasure listening to him.
Ex Essex didn’t you hear? He’s educated.
I like eloquence too. I like their big ears and long noses. 😊
Fav Comedian! Brilliant!
Thank you! Not my favourite tho he's a bit of a tosser
This is the way to skit regional accents. Good natured and not spiteful. Funny.
Brilliant 😂😂, never heard of him til last week, watching my way through.
I've seen him live a couple of times, he is absolutely hilarious.
Just don't see enough of Simon Evans on TV he is really funny and rapid fire funny
Cos he's shown himself to be a complete twat, that's why
Because you only get on TV as a comedian if youre left wing nowadays and he isnt.
@@phillyblunt138 Why is that?
@@YvonneWilson312 I don’t think his right wing posturing on stage and on Twitter is an act at all. He’s not half as smart as Colbert was in playing up that role on the Colbert Report.
@@phillyblunt138 Jamie, Jamie this isn't twitter why you angry?
possibly the best opening to a set ever!
meh

I second that
And absolute brilliant camera work at the end.
I liked all of this video, especially the bit right at the end 6:36.
Brilliant saw this routine live in Sunderland. Heavily edited here for t.v it was so good.
Brilliant, so different from all the others , a top man
He's a really funny guy.. I like him
A stand up comedy masterclass there. Excellent..
well he is so bloody funny and straight talking. :D

At the end of the day, rubble is rubble. You can move it around a bit to express your frustration, but it is more fung shui than vandalism, really.
Wonderful
excellent. REALLY don't know why we don't see more of this guy..
Bc he's at home sleeping half the time
This guy is hilarious! xD
Can't believe I missed this!
Why isn't this guy on Qi, WILTY and 8 out of 10 cats? He's hilarious
Because he’s not left wing
Cause he's right wing, but from what I hear, they are slowly bringing more right wing comedians to the shows. However the issue is that they're not that funny and also, they don't really slap all politicians while left wingers do.
He writes for 8 out of 10.
@@PoachedEggsinRedWine oh really? That's pretty cool.
I suspect its because he's not a lefty batsard like the rest of the BBC.
spectacular clip, one of the best "unknowns" ive seen on comedy roadshow, along with imran yusuf
Cant wait to see this guy live next month-genius
Marvellous. Clear pronounciation, interesting stories, a joy even for a foreigner
Absolute genius.
A few of you have just discovered him.
Check out his "Peckham" sketch.
I once described it as the ultimate and definitive 15 mins stand up sketch.
Haven't changed my mind.
Simon and Stewart Francis are the dogs bollocks!!!
He reminds me of me. I had to learn to speak R P when I first moved to england from alabama in the southern us. Yes you read that correctly.
I'd love to hear your accent now :)
Now that's a shame. I lived in Huntsville for nine years, and I really miss the accent.
Well done! I really hope ur accent now proper british, not Us one
"or being buggered in the showers at Harrow! Thank you Rector" Ha ha ha. Brilliant
"This is all very well, but where are his eyes?" Funniest part
You know this was recorded quite some time ago when he refers to his phone as a “camera phone”
I just want to let you know i saw this act years ago. It left such an impression i remembered it and ive been searching all afternoon. Thank you for the laughs.
Kasey. Have you set his stand up about Peckham? The definitive stand up moment!
This guy really makes me laugh!
Thanks be to the ArseRaptor.
Love him too - wish there was some fresh material available. Love your nom de plume - wish I'd thought of it first.

Hilarious. We need an hour or more! Anyone...?
ABSOLUTE CLASS
Did u see the woman who didn't take well to the 'it is, in fact, educated' joke
She probably didn’t get it.
This routine is genius
"The wind stiffened nipple..." Don't you love it ?
this guy is like my role model!! he needs his own show :D
One word... Absolutely brilliant. :)
By far his best work 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
don't you just hate it when you're 4 minutes and 21 seconds into watching some comedy and you suddenly pass out?
6:37 start the motorboat!
Excellent stuff..
Cheers for the upload Raptor!
Absolutely hilarious!
Gwan Simon, I absolutely love this routine!
Just brilliant!
Miss Waiting to be Offended at 1.49 looks like a bundle of laughs
"mother could be very cruel" XD
What a great start 😂😂😂
saw him as the support act for kevin bridges, was great then and great here
Still amazing today
Could watch him for an hour or more!
Oh my lord. This. Man is just wonderully funny. Seems all the funnier. Because of his lovely voice. Where has he been hiding.
I like this guy - very amusing.
He was often funny on Armando Iannucci's Charm Offensive.
top class.
I ldnt remember this guys name and couldnt find the vid that i had seen him on... So i looked up "omedian small eyes"... this guy was the first 2 vids.
Wow gr8 u didnt give up & found a way to search f him. Can imagine how releaved u felt:-)
The thing that struck me... was a rivet, as it turns out.
The aspect ratio doesn't really help the size of his eyes, does it?
I can`t believe how shallow people can be. So what about your personal aspect ratio mister perfect?
4:3 aspect ratio - So last century
@@wdanowel4331 get a life munson. it was a good joke and evans jokes about his eyes in his opening line.
Asian eyes LoL
Warrison brought me to this nicely filmed video!
His opening line is the most searched thing on my TH-cam 😂
excellent!
'A wind stiffened nipple'. The man is a poet.
His comedy is hilarious when you recognise/regard it as parody!
A little less so, when you discover that many of the prejudices he conveys are factual and personally held, but presented in a comedic manner!

The man cokmes out to The Clash... awesome. Saw him at a comedy club in Greenwich... he was hysterical
Never heard of him before today when he came on my fee. what a comedian Brilliant.. laughed so much..
He was always very funny and seems like a clone of a few comedians together
Good lord. I am speechless.
same tho ahahahahahahahaha
As soon as he said educated I liked the video

Saw him on TV years ago and only found him again from tiktok
Hilarious!!! Great Comedian!!!
quality comedian one of the best around
I spat my coffee out when he started with that line
Worth watching for those knockers at 6:37...
Omg fantastic 👏 😍 👌 🙌
Much better than the usual trendy leftie comedians!!
you can hear Michael at the end going "brilliand, just brilliant"
Christ this guy is hilarious!
What a bastard he is... You have to love it.
Pity he has not done more stand up, he is hilarious
This geezer is hilarious- Nuff said
That last half second made the whole clip worthwile.
“ It’s more feng shui than demolition “ hahahaaa

" . . . than vandalism"
I have a feeling the aspect ratio has been altered to avoid copyright infringement and therefore deletion.
the aspect ratio is fine and ni that wouldn't work...
