Saw Greg headlining at the Amused Moose in Soho on Saturday and he was brilliant. Really owned the room and ended everyone's night on a high. Top man.

Brian, February 2011


I saw him compering Jongleurs this weekend and he bombed, a really rowdy room and he looked lost and scared! He clearly sees himself as too good for the comedy circuit - this is quite clear to see during his time on stage. Although his material really isn't good enough. He has been lucky enough to land some good radio jobs, but he really is not a good stand up comic.

Michael Davies, September 2008


Old over-used material that is not even told well. Very over-rated and he was very smug! Nothing defining here

Bob Barry, May 2008


He's got some funny stuff but he doesn't rotate his gags often enough and he can be compared to a broken record. After a while I found myself zoning out of what he was saying and was actually a bit bored.

Anabel, April 2008


Glad to see he's back doing Thursdays at Backyard. Been a regular for last few years. Always a great night. Funny, fast thinking guy. Really enjoyed.

Justin, April 2008


I saw him compering at the Comedy Store and thought him bland bland bland. And smug. Although I wanted to find a better word than that because the last comment had used it...but it's the perfect word. So there we are. Bland. Smug.

Jack Harris, February 2008


He is funny, quick, intelligent – but be warned: if you heckle him in a nasty way be prepared to take as good as you get.

Ani, August 2007


Really enjoyed his set at Rawhide on Fri, the act of the night. Come back to Liverpool soon!

James, December 2006
