Al Porter
- Stand-up comedian
Press clippings Page 4
Eamonn Holmes welcomes his wife Ruth Langsford to the dating-themed panel show. In her absence, she's often the subject of the host's self-mockery, so now she can turn the screw in person. Also guesting on the series closer are Russell Kane, Al Porter and Carol Vorderman. There's cheeky banter - personified by Kelly Brook as one team captain - but the show is made somewhat edgier by her rival, the naturally hilarious Vicky Pattison.

Natalie O'Donoghue, Broadway World, 27th July 2016Latitude: reflections on a weekend of comedy
Latitude has often used the tag-line 'more than just a music festival' and with an extensive arts line-up that's certainly true. The Suffolk festival has also grown into one of the largest comedy programmes on the circuit. The tents may now have been dismantled, but Fergus Morgan reflects back on a weekend's mirth in the festival's purple comedy arena.
Fergus Morgan, The Reviews Hub, 20th July 2016Latitude 2016: Al Porter review
Perhaps the nearby stall selling Emu's and Cuddles - two 70s TV soft toy puppets - knows something we don't. Anyone watching Al Porter's stand-up in the comedy tent will definitely feel like they have taken a step back in time. If you think of a mash-up of Alan Carr and Frank Carson with a touch of Larry Grayson thrown in for good measure, you would not be far away from the truth.
