I saw him in Luton. There was a confrontational and crass compere who picked on members of the audience. I then saw Ray Peacock in complete contrast. He read the room so well. Put the audience at ease and gave an inspiring performance. Thought he was a lot like Daniel Kitson.

Bob, August 2010


I saw Ray at a charity comedy night in High Wycombe recently and thought he was very funny especially when attempting to kick bottles of water into the audience. Ray is yet another stand up to add to my list of comedians I have seen who have inspired me to give stand up a go.

Tom Everitt, May 2010


One of the best headliners and MC's on the circuit. I've never seen him blame an audience for not laughing, probably because in the dozens and dozens of times that I've watched him I've never seen him fail to leave an audience in stitches. Brilliant.

C Shaw, April 2010


Ray Peacock has a habit of blaming the audience when he's not funny and they don't laugh, that means that he blames the audience every time he's on stage. He is the worst stand up I have ever seen. Take my advice give him a miss

Jon, April 2010


Easily one of the finest comiedians on the circuit. Saw him at Porthcawl last night and he was very quick and sharp.

I am a person who strongly believes in people’s right to freedom of speech; however it is incredibly offensive to see it being miss-used. I’m a believer in “if you don’t have anything nice to say don’t say anything at all”. If you want to criticise something at least be constructive. So instead of calling people who have left rude comments “stupid sad c*n*s” I compel you educate yourselves, grow up and consider other people rather than yourself. Ray Peacock has not once failed to make me laugh and is one of the most genuine and kind hearted people I have had the pleasure of meeting. He takes the time to talk to people after gigs and always has time for a fan either in person or online. Finally fans of Ray are a loyal bunch and there are a lot of us, so watch out!

Little Jack, November 2009


I'm in total disagreement with G.J. I go to Bracknell comedy cellar whenever I can and Ray is one thing that draws me to go back. I will go and sit through three acts just to see him MC-ing! And he is most certainly not a moron as his routines are always different, unlike many comedians who stick with a set routine all the time. He is an incredibly intelligent performer who works off the audience with super-human speed. His podcast also displays his great imagination and versatility. As for the "it's not our fault we aren't laughing" comment, I can honestly say I have never seen him not make an audience laugh. I will continue to be a dedicated fan for years to come!
