The Sun, 10th December 2015Alan Carr to stay exclusively on Channel 4 until 2017
They say talk is cheap but Chatty Man star Alan Carr has been handed a £5million "golden handcuffs" deal by Channel 4.
The Sun, 1st December 2015Radio Times review
The show moves to BBC Two, where Alan Carr kicks off about "people who've got too much to say for themselves... always got an opinion". So I'll say nothing about his warm-up routine on Trip Advisor, skin disorders, school photos and Jack the Ripper walks. But if the comedy doesn't work out, Alan, you'd make a great tourist guide.
First on is Francesca Martinez who uses her cerebral palsy (or wobbliness as she calls it) for both laughs and political point scoring. Finally Nish Kumar does a scorching riff on the lack of right-wing comedians and left-wing action movies, before ripping into the political incorrectness of board games.

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.

Gerard Gilbert, The Independent, 30th August 2015Alan Carr interview
"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."
