Is this not the guy hosting "distraction" for comedy central? [/QUOTE]
The very same, I do believe.
Tommy, my guess is that Carr's style of comedy might not be original in the UK, but we don't see much of that here aside from stuff like Steven Wright, who is also a funny man, but the difference between him and Carr is that you don't want to slit your wrists after seeing Carr.

Yes, and he hosted our version as well (which I'm gathering is rather harsher than what they're going to put contestants through on the US show).
I think he'd be more likable if he picked his vehicles a bit better. He should, of course, use a bike.
I wonder how much of his popularity over there is down to his quaint plummy accent?
