Naissance 14 juin 1976 (47 ans) à Weymouth (Royaume-uni)

Alan Graham Carr (born 14 June 1976) is an English comedian and television personality.

Carr was born in Weymouth, Dorset, and spent most of his childhood in Northampton before moving in his early 20s to Chorlton-cum-Hardy, Manchester, where he began his comedy career. Carr's breakthrough was in 2001, winning the City Life Best Newcomer of the Year and the BBC New Comedy Award.

In the ensuing years, his career burgeoned on the Manchester comedy circuit before he became well-known for hosting The Friday Night Project with Justin Lee Collins. This led to the release of a short-lived entertainment show Alan Carr's Celebrity Ding Dong in 2008 and, eventually, his popular comedy chat show Alan Carr: Chatty Man, which has been airing on Channel 4 since 2009.

Carr also hosted a radio show, Going Out with Alan Carr, on BBC Radio 2 for three years as well as releasing his autobiography Look Who It Is! (2008) and going on three arena tours: Tooth Fairy Live (2007), Spexy Beast Live (2011) and Yap, Yap, Yap! (2015).

Carr is represented by the agency Off the Kerb. He has won two British Comedy Awards and two National Television Awards and has received a BAFTA TV Award.

Biographie

His father, whose family come from North East England, is a former Northampton Town and Nuneaton Borough F.C. manager, and current Newcastle United chief scout Graham Carr. Carr has a younger brother, Gary.

Carr went to Weston Favell School, Northampton and graduated from Middlesex University with a 2:1 BA (Hons) degree in Drama and Theatre Studies.

After completing his degree in his early 20s, Carr moved to Manchester, seeking a better life and aspiring to be a comedian. He moved into a house full of activity in Chorlton-cum-Hardy after which he moved to Stretford; which he cites as an inspiration for his comedic work. Carr soon became a regular on the Manchester comedy circuit, including Alan Carr's Ice Cream Sunday at the Manchester Comedy Store. Carr also made friends with fellow comedians based on the Manchester circuit, including Jason Manford, Justin Moorhouse and John Bishop.

Despite being openly gay, he does not consider his sexuality to be a focal part of his act, once saying, "I just think gay people need to get over themselves. Just because you're gay and on the telly doesn't mean you're a role model. I'm just a comedian. That's all I am. What am I meant to do? Do I go down the Julian Clary route and talk about fisting and poppers? I don't talk about being gay and I think what better equality for gays than that?"

On 21 September 2006, Carr and entertainer Lionel Blair helped save a man who was about to fall from a pier in Blackpool. The man was holding on by his fingertips, but the two men managed to pull him to safety.

Rôle James Brum Agent 021

The film loosely follows the central plot of Fleming's novel. British secret agent James Brum infiltrates the Pub Royale where he beats opponent Le Dough at a high-stakes monopoly game. Escaping from Le Dough's beautiful mistress Lenya, Brum gives chase to Le Dough on a modified bicycle to rescue love-interest Lambretta. In the climax Brum sellotapes live hedgehogs to the road which puncture the tyres of Le Dough's sports car and it hurtles over a cliff.
