I didn't understand what was funny, but he is my favourite, though!

My understanding of the point of the joke was that the DVD was changed from Castaway to The Philadelphia Story, the punchline being along the lines of ' gee, that guy is really unlucky'

I don't find his routines funny, but I find him endearing when he's just being himself.

I have watched quite a few of his routines that out and I didn't find any of them particularly funny...

But he's still my favourite in Camp

I think he should give up on stand-up and concentrate on presenting. He has charisma.

"G'day, Kiosk Keith can you help ? I'm in Darwin with my sheila and she's been stung on the minge by a wasp, it's now swollen and has completely closed up.
"Bummer mate!"
"Thanks a lot Kiosk Keith, I hadn't thought of that. Bye."

What I found most interesting about that was that his observations on the responses of the campmates in the bush telegraph afterwards were very, very funny - much funnier than the actual stand-up itself.
Yes they were. I've always loved his sense of humour.

Hes ok with his mouth closed but looks like a white sideboard when he smiles.

Is this man relying on comedic talent to put food on his plate?

If so, god help him!

I was just as bemused about how Adam reacted to his jokes. I didn't get why he thought Joel's jokes were hysterical!

A much bigger room with a lot more people reacting to the same joke...

I am not surprised he swerved the last bit on IAC, after the Biggins CBB shenanigans

the best bit was the inappropriate mum bit

Speaking of Joels stand up....why was it treated in a funny way when he announced to the campmates about his sex on the computer, it was neither funny or entertaining and Im surprised someone hasnt mentioned it.

Spectacularly horribly unfunny.as a so called comedian he is an epic fail.and his eyes are too close together.

I'm rubbish at stuff like that, and if I'd been there I probably could have had a better shot at that with an anecdote.

I don't dislike Joel, he's okay. But how, how is he classed as a "comedian"? None of what he's said in the telegraph has been funny either. Even when he's intended it to be.
Spot on! Probably the least talented out of all the people in there (with the exception of Scarlett!) would love to see him be the first one voted out.

I bet all the people in this thread saying they don't find Joel funny enjoy the work of Keith Lemon.

In all fairness, that's only about 11 minutes and 32 seconds...

Humour is subjective but you posted three grinning faces in reply to a nonsensical/weak comment about him "whacking his todger" so I'm guessing you might not be particularly discerning when it comes to humour.

Nope. I certainly don't find him funny, either...

I do really like Joel, but I find his humour quite forced. Lovely guy, though.

I'd heard his joke before, I don't think it's even his material.
Yep, not his material. Can't remember where I heard that joke first, but it definitely wasn't from Joel.
I'm confused. Is the problem that you've heard the joke before (by him by the way) or that it isn't funny?

I enjoyed his stand up and I also enjoy most of his one liners in camp.

I thought he was funny. Though not as funny as Adam was making out. He is generally funny though, and really lovely. I want him to win.

I thought the bit of his stand up we saw as very good and I'm genuinely bemused that there are people in this thread who didn't find it funny. He's also funny in his pieces to camera. Maybe his humour is wasted on the sort of people who find I'm A Celebrity... entertaining.
Talk about arrogant
