Press comments:

One of the most impressive sights of the comedy year The Telegraph ****

It's great to see arena-level standup that asks us to think as well as laugh – but which nevertheless keeps the laughs front and centre The Guardian ****

[on Messiah Complex] as thought provoking as it is entertaining Time Out ****

For information please contact Chambers Management T: 0207 796 3588 F: 0207 796 3676 W: www.chambersmgt.co.uk He’s still a cut above the rest and yes, he pulls off the near-miraculous: we laugh, we think, we think as we laugh Telegraph ****

A force of nature whose musings on sexuality, karma and the human condition are often so florally postulated that each seems like an astral projection rather than an opinion Independent a bright man with a sincere ‘one-world love-and-piece and screw the corporations’ message he wants to use his fame to convey. His charisma – or his libido – cannot be dimmed Chortle he is a brilliant, literate, raconteur with a gloriously over-the-top way with words Scotsman hilarious, thought-provoking and brilliant.
