Biography
Alan Carr is an English comedian, broadcaster, writer, and television personality born on 14 June 1976. His breakthrough arrived in 2001 when he won the City Life Best Newcomer of the Year and the BBC New Comedy Awards, establishing himself on the Manchester comedy circuit. Carr co-hosted the comedy variety show The Friday Night Project with Justin Lee Collins from 2006 to 2009, a partnership that led to his own short-lived show Alan Carr's Celebrity Ding Dong in 2008. He then anchored the long-running chat show Alan Carr: Chatty Man from 2009 to 2017, becoming one of British television's most recognisable faces. Beyond chat, Carr has served as a team captain on 8 Out of 10 Cats Does Countdown, judges RuPaul's Drag Race UK since 2019, and stars in the sitcom Changing Ends. He also won the first series of The Celebrity Traitors in 2025.

His accolades include three British Comedy Awards, two National Television Awards, and a BAFTA TV Award. A Gemini born in mid-June, Carr embodies the sign's talkative, adaptable nature—core to his rapid-fire comedic persona. In February 2026, he purchased Ayton Castle in the Scottish Borders.
