Jimmy Carr review – a relentless wallow in grubbiness

Rose theatre, Kingston Despite occasional glimmers of subversive wit, Carr continues to rely on dubious jokes about dwarves, fat women and FGM

‘W elcome to 90 minutes of your life you’re never getting back,” runs the caption at the start of Jimmy Carr’s touring show, Terribly Funny. That’s what you sign up for when you go to see Carr: a grubby pleasure that may be more grubby than pleasure. We know we shouldn’t. We’ll regret it afterwards. There’s certainly no deviation tonight from the formula that’s served Carr well – commercially if not always creatively – for 20 years: blue humour, playground abuse, jokes about rape and paedophilia, and (according to taste) just enough wit and joke-writing flair to keep the stench and squalor at bay.

Who knows what need Carr’s comedy is meeting in some of us for jokes about dwarves, fat women and FGM? Carr’s closing apologia insists he doesn’t mean to hurt anyone, that his material is “joyful” in intent. And certainly there is some subversive joy in having humour applied to such subjects. Deep-rooted convention is destabilised when Carr appears to laugh at the Nazi extermination of Gypsies. We gasp at the flouted taboo, then laugh to recall that – here at least – there are no consequences.

Or no immediate ones. But, even if you agree that all subjects are fair game for comedy, Carr’s relentless downward kicking (“Is a dwarf an abortion that made it?”) argues that jokes about lesbians, Gypsies and sexual violence aren’t just acceptable, but something – over two long hours – to revel in. Many of his one-liners are barely jokes at all, just boorish cliches about vegans being boring or Germany being humourless. And you can’t miss the “my mother-in-law” echoes in his battery of one-liners (some neat, all unlovely) that each begin, “My girlfriend …”

By that stage, I wasn’t feeling the joy. But then, joy isn’t exclusively what Carr’s humour is about. It’s a mug’s game trying to parse other people’s laughter, but at some points – as with the applause that greets a weak joke championing the use of gendered sexual swearwords – there seems to be some free-at-last sense of escape at play from the liberal consensus on what we are and aren’t supposed to say. It’s immaterial to point out that Carr, like many other middle-aged male standups, broadcasters and columnists, has been saying this stuff for years and no one has censored or marginalised him yet.

It doesn’t have to be this way. Carr is perfectly capable of joking across wider territory – as with the pert gag about Meghan Markle’s feminism. I did find this show a little funnier than its recent predecessors – the quality of the wordplay a mite higher, the thuggishness less relentless. Carr even briefly parks the trademark one-liners and tries his hand at observational comedy, although the routine – about how rubbish old tech (Blockbuster video, Yellow Pages) looks in contrast to the new – treads familiar standup ground. As with previous shows, there are vox pops, too, when the audience volunteer their own words for vagina and female masturbation. The results are not elevating.

But elevation’s not what we’re here for. Carr has cornered the blue-humour market, delivering sordid comedy with relentless efficiency to people who find more joy in that than I do. And he shows no signs of surrendering it.

Jimmy Carr at the Palace Theatre review: Wit with the gasp factor set to maximum

There seems to be two Jimmy Carrs these days. There is Carr the clean-cut guest on primetime television shows such as I Can See Your Voice and Carr the touring comedian who is anything but clean. Onstage at the Palace, bringing stand-up back to the West End last night, he was so filthy I felt I needed a bath after being in the same room as him.

Carr calls himself an “equal opportunities offender” and that is a fair description of his current show, Terribly Funny. From the mother-in-law joke in the intro to the gynaecological gags about sex and paedophilia no topic is deemed unacceptable for the former marketing executive.

This is wit with the gasp factor set to maximum. His material is hardly woke, but as he points out, albeit a little disingenuously, they are just words – they are not the terrible things. Having political correctness at a comedy show, he has said, is like having health and safety at a rodeo.

To his credit, words are very much his strength. Carr has a whipsmart mind and can spot double meanings at a thousand paces. His interaction with his fans was second to none. And he certainly had a fertile socially distanced crowd to work with, from some chatty vegans and a porn actor to a paramedic recently called out to an unspeakable incident involving a woman and a cat.

Yet Carr was at his most intriguing when he strayed from his smutty path. There was a welcome foray into topicality when he discussed the latest changes to lockdown as if the government was “hoping to confuse Covid into submission”.

And at the start of the second lengthy half there was even some Peter Kay-style nostalgia when he championed actual going out and meeting people over Tinder and recalled rewinding Blockbuster Video tapes. Compared to his stream of juvenile wisecracks about Michael Jackson, Countdown’s Rachel Riley and various members of the Royal Family, this was like a veritable palate cleanser.

There is clearly an audience for this kind of comedy that mixes the slickness of Bob Monkhouse with the sickness of Bernard Manning. Maybe we have been through such a brutal time in the last year that we need something brutal like this as a kind of escape valve. If the unsayable is not said maybe that would be worse.

The lingering thought though is that even when Carr is on a roll, as he undoubtedly was onstage, one cannot help but wonder why he chooses to mine such dark matters for laughs. There is plenty to enjoy here and also plenty that feels relentlessly crude.

Jimmy Carr review — He is still standing but some of his jokes are a bit limp

★★★☆☆ Outside the O2 there is a small and civilised protest: demonstrators hold up a large banner reading Stand Up To Racism and smaller placards reading “Roma and Sinti genocide is no laughing matter”. Inside, though, on his first London show since hitting the headlines last weekend, it’s very much bad-taste business as usual for Jimmy Carr . Cancelled? For a knowingly but unrewardingly crass joke about Nazis killing “gypsies” in the Holocaust? Nobody has told this sold-out crowd of almost 3,000.

Oh, there are nods to the notoriety earned him by that routine, which features in a Netflix special, His Dark Material . When someone shouts out a comment about tax — Carr got caught in a tax avoidance scandal in 2012 — his

Jimmy Carr, Palace Theatre review - rape gags and risible claims | reviews, news & interviews

Jimmy carr, palace theatre review - rape gags and risible claims, the jokes are relentless, but so is the misogyny.

What to make of Jimmy Carr? He’s a fantastic gag writer and experienced stand-up who has made a hugely successful career on television. And yet... as Terribly Funny makes clear, you have to share what he calls his dark and edgy humour - or, as he has it: “Cunts are a key demographic for me” - to find it mirth-making.

His gags tend to be one-liners of the set-up, payoff variety, with a few set-up, misdirect, reveal to vary the pace. But when the vast majority are about how women nag, or how unattractive they are beyond a certain age, or are there just for men’s sexual pleasure, or about ghastly mothers-in-law and predatory paedophiles, he can vary the delivery as much as he likes but the material soon becomes monotonous.

Carr’s crowd work, however, is superb and on the night I saw the show it produced comedy gold. He’s quick-witted and smart, and several steps ahead of anybody in the audience who is daft enough to accept his invitation to heckle. He asked if anyone there was an anti-vaxxer and one woman took the bait. 

He gave it both barrels, to the enthusiastic reception of the audience. But then, remarkably, the comic, who famously once took part in a scheme to considerably lower his tax bill, said his taxes had paid for the Covid vaccine. “You’re welcome,” he said.

Er, just a minute. The vast majority - if not all - of the audience have always paid their taxes, without being, as he described it, “chivvied” into paying. He really does have a cheek.

However skewed his reasoning, it wasn’t the only time Carr was keen to show what a decent bloke he is. Black Lives Matter was mentioned respectfully, but alas later he tarnished his anti-racist credentials by retelling the dodgy joke about Gypsies that he told on Radio 4 in 2006. The BBC later apologised for broadcasting it.

And the fact that a member of the audience felt comfortable enough to spout a negative stereotype about Gypsies during his Q&A spoke volumes. He may have dismissed her ramblings, but his response - that he can make jokes about Gypsies because someone in his family is Romany - was risible.

Carr is keen to point out that his act is just that; “my mother” and “my mother-in-law” are both mentioned but the former is a long time dead and the latter doesn’t exist. An onstage persona is a basic part of a comic’s kit but these inventions serve to underline just how out of date much of his material now sounds - he has been doing this shtick since he started in comedy 20 years ago.

He has some smart things to say about Covid, the royal family and various politicians, but as much of the two-and-a-half hours is filled with rape “jokes”, or references to the abuse of women and children, the misogyny just feels relentless - and that’s a shame because Carr is clearly a very talented comic. Just not, on this evidence, a very nice one.

Jimmy Carr announces new tour – with two shows EVERY night

Also first tour for Edinburgh best newcomer Urooj Ashfaq

He’s already the hardest-working man in comedy – and now Jimmy Carr is packing in twice as many shows into his next stand-up tour.

The star will be playing two shows every night of his forthcoming Laughs Funny tour – which takes in almost 90 theatre across the UK.

And that will be followed by 11 arena dates, with a more conventional one show per night.

Even with his prodigious TV output, Carr rarely takes a break from touring.  He’s currently on the road with his Terribly Funny 2.0 show, the first incarnation of which started in 2019, pausing only for the Covid pandemic.

The last UK night of that tour is on February 5 in Northampton, then he heads to the US for six weeks of dates, before returning home to launch his new Laughs Funny show. It runs from May 1, 2024, through to the end of December 2025.

And as if that’s not enough, Chortle understands he’ll be adding more dates later.

Tickets are currently being sold to fans on his mailing list, with a release of Ticketmaster tickets at 10am tomorrow before the tour goes on general sale at 10am on Friday.

» Jimmy Carr tour dates and where to get tickets

Meanwhile, Indian comic Urooj Ashfaq has also announced her debut UK tour for Oh No!, the show which won her the best newcomer award at this year’s Edinburgh Fringe.

She is currently performing it at Soho Theatre, where she will return for  two weeks from January 8, followed by a nine-date tour to Edinburgh, Glasgow, Leicester, Coventry, Manchester, Bristol, Milton Keynes, Birmingham, and Leeds.

The 28-year-old from Mumbai had not performed stand-up in English before bringing this show, about  cultural differences, her experiences in therapy and her parents’ divorce, to the UK in the run-up to the Fringe.

Tickets go on sale at 11am on Friday.  Urooj Ashfaq tour dates .

Also, Chris McCausland has added new dates to his 2024 Yonks ! tour, and Connor Burns has handed a handful of extra shows to his debut tour Vertigo .

The blurb explains: "Jimmy tells jokes, and jokes are like magnets. Jokes attract some people, but they can also repel. Some people are repelled by Jimmy's dark brand of comedy. This show is not for them. But if it's the kind of thing you like, then this is the kind of thing you'll like.

"A household name in the UK and one of the biggest selling comedians in the world, Jimmy consistently performs to capacity crowds around the globe. His last tour, Terribly Funny , sold over one million tickets internationally and was performed in 50 different countries. Jimmy Carr: Laughs Funny will extend his reach even further and mark the first time this record-breaking comedian has toured in arenas in the UK and Ireland."

Tickets are on sale from Friday from sites including Ticketmaster

In many of the non-arena venues, Carr will perform twice in an evening, once at 7pm and again at 9:30pm. These shows will be 90 minutes with no interval. The 8pm arena shows meanwhile will be 2 hours 20 minutes including an interval and special guests. A full list of dates are below.

'I just love the city': Andy Hurley on coming home to Milwaukee to play with Fall Out Boy

Since he's the drummer for Fall Out Boy, you might think that Andy Hurley is one of Milwaukee's most accomplished musical expats.

Except he didn't completely leave.

The Menomonee Falls native, 43, moved from his primary home on North Lake Drive in 2015, relocating to Portland, Oregon, where he lives with his wife Meredith. They married this past Valentine's Day.

But Hurley still has a condo in Milwaukee, and makes it back to his old hometown a few times a year. And for about the past 13 years, he has taken part in the Polar Bear Plunge into Lake Michigan on New Year’s Day.

"It feels like a cool ritual to ring in the New Year," Hurley told the Journal Sentinel over the phone. "It sets the intention that it can't get worse. Then it's only uphill from here."

"I just love the city. It's always just meant a lot to me," Hurley added. "I always wanted to play Fiserv Forum since it's opened. I think we're finally doing it because I basically told our manager, 'We've got to play Milwaukee this time.'"

Fall Out Boy is touring in support of acclaimed album 'So Much (for) Stardust'

"This time" is Tuesday. The band's first show at the Bucks arena is part of the second touring leg behind last year's "So Much (for) Stardust," Fall Out Boy's first studio album in five years.

"So Much (for) Stardust" earned the band its best reviews since returning from a hiatus in 2013. It was a return to the more guitar-oriented, pop-punk sound they introduced two decades prior on the band's debut album "Take This to Your Grave," recorded in part at Butch Vig and Steve Marker's since-shuttered Smart Studios in Madison.

"It's my favorite record of ours, the one I'm most proud of, something we couldn't have done until now," Hurley said of "So Much (for) Stardust." "It was kind of a return in a way, but we didn't want to retread and do anything we've done before. The approach was really to take everything we've learned in these 20 years and put all of that into one album. It was a really magical, organic process."

And it wouldn't have been possible, Hurley suggested, if he and his bandmates — frontman Patrick Stump, bassist Pete Wentz and guitarist Joe Trohman — didn't still have a strong respect and admiration for each other.

The members of Fall Out Boy 'are all still best friends'

For most of his life, Hurley wanted to be in a band — he wrote as much in a sixth-grade assignment at Menomonee Falls North Middle School. Ultimately, he accomplished something greater than his childhood dream: He ended up in the rare rock band in which the core lineup, from first album to its latest 20 years later, remained intact.

"We are all still best friends," Hurley said, saying they all recently went out to see "Dune: Part 2" together. "We still love each other and have fun playing together. … There is not jealousy, there is no ego driving us. …. We always include each other in decisions."

"We have grown and evolved as musicians and friends and have different, wiser stories to tell," he said.

On "Some Much (for) Stardust," that includes first single "Love From the Other Side," the last song the band recorded for the album, and the first song they've been playing on the current tour. The song features some of Hurley's most intense drumming in all of the Fall Out Boy catalog.

"It kind of kicks the door open in a really fun, energetic way," Hurley said.

Andy Hurley on his mother's death: 'Playing connects me to her'

The album also includes "Heaven, Iowa," which is also on the new tour's setlist. With lyrics like "They don't know how much they'll miss/At least until you're gone like this," Hurley said the song hits differently after his mother, Ann, died last year.

Hurley was on the road when she died, and he credits his bandmates and the crew for helping him with his loss. It's similar to the grace and support they offered Trohman when he took a break for a few months last year to support his mental health.

"Playing connects me to her, and I think we all have something like that that inspires us and animates us," Hurley said.

"It's just too big to kind of fit in your head," Hurley said of returning to Milwaukee to play Fiserv Forum. "It's all a testament to my mom and how she raised me and who she made me as a person. … She enabled it all and pushed me to do what I love."
