Jimmy Carr brings two shows of his one-liner tour Killing Jokes to indigo at The O2, the club-sized room inside the dome on the Greenwich Peninsula.
Jimmy Carr, the comedian known for his rapid deadpan one-liners, brings Killing Jokes to indigo at The O2 in North Greenwich on Wednesday 1 September 2027. He plays an early and a late show.
Carr, born in Isleworth in 1972 to Irish parents, gave up a marketing job at Shell for stand-up in January 2000.
He has hosted Channel 4’s The Big Fat Quiz of the Year since 2004, and he hosted 8 Out of 10 Cats from 2005 to 2021. Its crossover with the daytime quiz, 8 Out of 10 Cats Does Countdown, has run since 2012.
Since 2021 he has hosted the Channel 4 quiz I Literally Just Told You. In March 2025 he hosted the first series of LOL: Last One Laughing UK.
Killing Jokes is his new hour of fast, dark one-liners. The room is a 2,750-capacity club inside The O2, smaller than the arena that shares the dome.
