"His overriding quality was his reactive nature to the audience." Open Mic Productions "Hutchinson’s trump card is the way he interacts with the audience, rolling with every ‘ooh’ and ‘aah’ his material generated, giving a dynamism and spontaneity to his performance." Steve Bennett "His act was very dry but immensely sharp with an underlying energy which wasn’t obviously rehearsed like many others I have seen on the circuit." Weekend Post "The phrase ‘One to watch’ gets bandied around a lot on the comedy circuit, but Carl is one of a few new comedians where it actually applies." Evening Gazette "His tone and manner was very funny as he was almost argumentative." BBC Comedy "Hutchinson held a 200-strong crowd in the palm of his hand." The Publican
