Patrick James Carr and Nora Mary Carr had a child named Carr. His two brothers, Colin Carr and Patrick Carr, also have the same parents as he does.
Carr spent most of his childhood in the village of Farnham Common in Buckinghamshire. There, he went to school at Burnham Grammar School and Farnham Common School. He finished the sixth form at the Royal Grammar School in nearby High Wycombe.
Nora Mary, Carr’s mother, died at age 57 of pancreatitis in 2001. Carr’s relationship with his father became very strained after she died. In 2004, his father was arrested and accused of bothering Carr and his brother Colin, but he was found not guilty and the Metropolitan Police gave him an apology.
At his graduation in 1994, he got first-class honours. He kept working for Shell in the marketing department, but he quit on his own in January 2000 because he was “miserable” there.
He has said that taking a course in neuro-linguistic programming helped him see how his way of thinking was keeping him from becoming a comedian, which was his goal. In a month, he began doing stand-up.
Later that month, he did his first paid stand-up show. The month before, he had done his first show in a pub for free.
