Swansea City midfielder Jonjo Shelvey was married at the weekend to Daisy Evans - and had a very special guest to provide some entertainment.

The 23-year-old was married to the former S Club Juniors star on Saturday and stand-up comedian Jimmy Carr was at the reception to perform a routine.

Carr is one of Britain's most notorious and popular comics, famous for his offensive, quick-fire wit and for hosting 8 Out of 10 Cats, The Big Fat Quiz of the Year and others.

The comedian performed a short routine for the couple, with a joke about his wife and Liz Hurley.

Shelvey, who has one England cap, had a very impressive season for Garry Monk's team, scoring three goals and adding five assists as Swansea finished a best-ever 8th.
