    Sadly I missed Carlton the last time he was in Glasgow, when will he be back in Scotland again?

      Hi Arline, We are planning some dates with Carlton in Scotland this autumn – although possibly not Glasgow again so soon. Will keep you posted. Duncan

    Stamford Corn Exchange would perhaps be a good venue

      Thanks for the suggestion, Nick – I have had a look and it looks just right for our sort of thing, so we will find out more and see if we can get a show in there sometime. Duncan

    Is the Stoke date still happening or anything North West-ish?

      Hi Alexander, the Stoke date will now be part of Carlton’s tour next June/July, just ahead of the Tour de France.

      Hi Georgie, we did a show in Hemel a couple of years back… maybe we are due a return visit. We try to get to as many places as possible but Carlton’s commentary commitments do limit our chances to do live shows! Duncan
