A audience member stole the show at a Jimmy Carr gig when he proposed to his girlfriend through the award winning funny man.

Mr Carr came up with on of his slick one-liners when writing about the event on social networking site Twitter.

He wrote: “Croydon tonight and an audience member called Adam Olver proposed to Selina - she's not even pregnant - a first for Croydon. Congratulations.”

According to Mr Carr’s PR team the proposal was a “spur of the moment thing”.

A spokesman from Fairfield Halls offered his congratulations to the happy couple.

He said: “We are just about to celebrate our 50th anniversary, we wish them all the best and hope they get to do the same.”
