Dara is always good

A great modern comedian with the sense of timing and fast wit which makes his shows a must see experience.

Dara O'Briain is hilarious

Dara never fails to crack me up, he is an Irish man living in England so his hilarious insights about England and Ireland are funny for everyone! If you want a really good giggle I would recommend this.

I was listening to this on a train and I had to switch it off because I could't help laughing out loud

laughed till I cried

My sister recommended Dara O'Briain to me, after watching his DVD, so I quickly downloaded this prior to a train journey. I think I may have alarmed several passengers on the Burton to Gloucester train with my silent shaking and stomach clutching, and tears streaming down my face.
Highly recommended - but best listened to in a place you can be free to laugh out loud without looking insane.

Excellent!

I downloaded this based on helgacabbage's review and I'm very glad I did! Unfortunately I listened to most of this on the bus, so I also got a lot of strange looks from people due to badly suppressed giggling at the back of the H22. Dara O'Briain is wasted on tv shows, his stand up is much much funnier.

Brilliant

Dara O’Briain is always brilliant. The only possible problem could be that it’s not long enough!

Just a bit dated

Very funny man. Who had the audience mesmerised. A very fast Dave Allen. Always original.

Outstanding. As always

Another superlative performance from Ireland’s No.1 stand-up. A gigglefest from start to finish.

Some of it is very funny

I have a mixed view. I get the Irish back story (hard to miss!) and therefore the antagonism towards catholic faith but as someone who isn’t a catholic I’m bored by the lazy bashing which realy puts me off seeing him live as it’s a fair chunk of his work. When he isn’t doing that I find him funny and charming, but this does seem to push him into nastiness which I don’t enjoy.

Excellent Entertainment

Very funny, had me laughing constantly. I listen to Audible in the car on my commute so, with a word of warning, you will get strange looks from other commuters as you laugh uncontrollably. Best done on the freeway.
