"Ross Leslie is a nimble compere, who kept the night on track with a gentle authority and, when he shifted into material, he got big around the room responses." British Comedy Guide
"This is a solid set of conventional standup from the well-regarded club comic. There's no real theme but family crops up & there's an incident with some keyboard warriors. Audience interaction works well too." Fringe Monkey (3.5 stars)
"Ross is an engaging and interesting comic, easy to listen to and has loads of laughs woven into his narrative." One4Review (4 stars)
“Ross Leslie is a must see, funny funny stuff” Glasgow Social Events
"He had a robustly put-together set….with a nice variety of gags and pleasing turns of phrase." Chortle
"Easy flow and solid gag rate." The List
"Leslie notably commands the room with easy-going charm. Leslie finishes the show and finishes it well, he has the wonderful ability to poke fun at almost everything without being mean..." The Student Newspaper
