“this assured storyteller demonstrates an enviable ability to draw the audience into his yarns, having them hang on every word. His talent is in absorbing the listener so fully, that you have the emotional attachment to the tales that you don’t have with a simple gag. Thus engrossed, pithy comments that emerge naturally from the stories really hit home, catching the listener by surprise and given extra impact by their context. There are few finer exponents of the unhurried comic story than Valentine” Chortle
