We’re so lucky to have a huge amount of funny comedians in the UK. Most of them also happen to be on Twitter!
Lots of them are good to follow to see the funny tweets they post. So to make it easy to find them all we’ve curated a huge list of all of their handles. Its taken hours to create but it was fun to do.
The data is in alphabetical order to avoid any accusations of bias towards certain people!
You can use the search function if there’s someone particular you’re thinking of.

Who has the best name?
It has to go to Russell Brand, aka @rustyrockets. Great name! I suppose it would have been a surprise if be had a boring username.
We were also going to post here who we think is the funniest British Tweeter. But that’s impossible to judge! You’ll have to make that decision for yourself.

The list includes mainly the mainstream performers well known from TV. But we want to include smaller, less well-known stand-up comedians too. But we need your help. We can’t possibly research everyone in the industry! If you know of names that are missing from this list then let us know so they can be added in.
We hope this list was useful, dont forget to follow us as well on Twitter!
