I've been living in south Africa and Australia for some years and now I'm back in the uk.
Since I've back if been doing regular work for Dave Ward, Kevin Precious, Mirth Control, Just a tonic and Jongleurs on the road amongst others.
Here are some reviews from gigs I've done since being back
I want to give a special mention to Martin Davis who was MC, and he did a brilliant job. He has done 2 gigs for me, and feedback as been as strong as any comic I have ever had feedback on.....from comics or audience members. So much so, I got him in for another 7 gigs. If there are people out there not booking Martin, you really are missing out, he has been nothing but brilliant for me so far.
Stephen Carlin was brilliant, Sarah Johnson amazing and Paul Tonkinson different level. Gutted I missed it. Guess I will just have to book them all again.

'Back from a long time plying his trade in South Africa, Martin is a great spontaneous creator: an absolute natural in the role of compere, and as act he has adds a lovely freeform of contrast to any bill"
Kevin Precious
Martin Davis is one of those acts you love to see on a lineup!!! You know your show will be a success with lots of laughter if he is on!!
Marilyn Wilson, Jongleurs On The Road
Martin Davis is one of the best there is or ever was. I have seen him tear the roof off gigs in clubs, bars, and theatres. Plus he is a lovely person.
Cokey Falkow, Green Duck Brewery
You have funny bones
Robin Ince
Thanks Martin.
You were absolutely superb last night and we had amazing feedback about your performance, so thank you again for coming over.
Ian whitcombe, comedy in the cave Nottingham
Always a hit with the crowd and great energy. You would be crazy not to book Martin
Daniel Dearlove, The Backyard Comedy club
Martin Davis is a fabulous comic and a superb MC.
He has gigged for me regularly for 25 years across most of my clubs and always done the business and been asked back.
I trust him to open, close or MC any gig that I run and I have been trading across UK wide theatre/club/pub/hotel venues since 1998

Have are some other reviews I've had while in south africa
"Martin skids and bounces across the stage, strung up and tugged around by unknown forces, firing off a relentless rapid-fire assault that hits every corner of the room and kills 100% of all known hecklers
CAPE ARCUS
Going where mere joke-tellers fear to tread with his characteristic kamikaze bravado ("Go on, heckle me") he walks the razor edge of audience participation, daring them to pick him off it.
THE CITIZEN
With enough nervous energy to power a small city, he is able to warm up the chilliest rooms and turn the stoniest punters into soft putty in his hands."
