Jack Whitehall, O2 Arena review

Decent storyteller who needs more convincing material.

Jack Whitehall Gets Around, comedy review

Though playing mega venues suggests a finished article, the young comic is still a work-in-progress. This show at least suggests that he can progress in quality (clearly he has quantity licked), though it doesn't signpost how far.

Jack Whitehall, Wembley Arena - comedy review

In terms of production values this may well be the most spectacular arena stand-up show ever. It is a shame then, that the gift did not always live up to the flashy wrapping paper.

Review: Jack Whitehall, Capital FM Arena

Messing with the mixture that turns a stand-up from cringing posh boy into justifiable people's champion is a tricky but necessary project. It has been years in waiting for Jack Whitehall, but he moved a few steps closer as the confetti cannons marked the interval - half way towards the most hilarious show he has produced to date.

Review: Jack Whitehall at the ECHO arena

There are perhaps one too many anecdotes about his sex life, but there's plenty of fun to be had in his engaging tales of social embarrassment, delivered with trademark squeaky indignation, and an impressively-constructed gag involving a cheese strudel.

Jack Whitehall Gets Around review

Overall it feels like Jack Whitehall should take one of the aspects to his stage persona and invest in it further to provide his performance with an edge, but as he kept thousands of people entertained for two hours that may be unlikely to happen - simply because doesn't need to.

Jack Whitehall: standing up for Cameron's Britain

In Whitehall's routines, poshness is a depoliticised quirk, like being tall. You can only laugh at his jokes if you think disadvantage isn't worth getting upset about.

Jack Whitehall interview

The comedian on his posh past and his first arena tour. Just don't remind him that it kicks off in three days...

Laura Barnett, The Observer, 1st March 2014

Jack Whitehall interview

He's played a student in Fresh Meat and a teacher in Bad Education, and now he's graduated to filling arenas. But has success forced Jack Whitehall to grow up, or is he still a big kid?

Jack Whitehall to end Bad Education after Series 3

Jack Whitehall has revealed he plans to end his hit school-based sitcom Bad Education after the next run, saying "I think three series is probably enough".
