In the USA Paul was a finalist on Series 6 of NBC's “Last Comic Standing”. 'It's baffling to me that Paul is not a household name in this country. His routines are like jazz clusters, loose hammocks, choked to the brim with jokes and ideas' (Noel Fielding) 'Inspired, surreal and incomprehensibly funny' (Chortle) 'Capable of raising a laugh with just a brief shudder in the beat between jokes' (Wow247) 'He is completely in charge. An hour in his company is one of wet faced glee and it's over in a flash' (The Scotsman).
