Who Are You: Alan Carter?

Alan Carter is a man who responds to pressure, answering the Who, What, Where and more in record time. While he doesn’t mind The Who’s Who Are You? playing in the background, The Proclaimers 500 Miles would suit him better. He gets fast and fun and then he’s done, vacating the interview chair for my…
