Review: Alan Carr's Yap Yap Yap!
A shade shorter and a tad tighter and Alan Carr's show at Cardiff's St David's Hall could have really sparkled.
Ciaran Jones, Wales Online, 16th October 2015Review: Alan Carr, touring
Alan Carr has titled his latest live show Yap, Yap, Yap! Because, he says as the show opens, everyone has too much to say these days, much of it - such as the stuff on Twitter - not worth listening to. Coming from the host of Channel 4 chatshow Chatty Man, that's comically rich. But such is Carr's genuine likeability that the audience overlook that and settle in to enjoy the evening. I wish I could say I enjoyed it as much as they did.

"With arena shows, the material doesn't evolve. You don't want to take the gamble of trying out new stuff in front of 12,000 people."

A fantastic night of comedy from a man with endless charisma and confidence.
Josh Coulson, Guide2Bristol, 28th July 2015Review: Alan Carr: Yap, Yap, Yap!
If you have the chance to go see this incredibly funny man, I would highly recommend it.
Joe Pickard, The York Press, 13th July 2015Radio Times review
The sixth year of Channel 4's admirable fundraising drive for Great Ormond Street Hospital. If you're an avid and knowledgeable fan of any of these acts, this might not be the best environment in which to see them, since there are an awful lot to get through. But to take the temperature of live comedy right now and see who's at the top of their game or on the up, it's ideal.
The really big names are led by Alan Carr, Michael McIntyre and Jack Dee, with Aisling Bea, Sara Pascoe and Katherine Ryan among the others to look out for. Also on the bill is sharp, politically astute South African stand-up Trevor Noah, getting in a UK gig while he can before he takes over the hallowed Daily Show in the US.
