Bruce Dessau, Beyond The Joke, 24th September 2015Comedians urge Essex smokers to swap fags for gags

British Comedy Guide, 25th July 2014Radio Times review
The gripes up for consideration run the gamut from the trivial (people who make up rules in Monopoly) to the vehemently political (George Osborne and "all his friends in the cabinet").
Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen, Charles Dance and comedian Andi Osho are the nominees, and surprisingly it's the dandyish star of Changing Rooms who proves most entertaining and witty. His diatribe against beige "in all its gory; its understated, delusional blandeur" is a particular highlight.
There's not too much combative banter between the guests, except when Osho claims Charles Dance sounds like the sort of name you'd make up to avoid embarrassment at an STD clinic. Delightful.
David Crawford, Radio Times, 7th March 2014Half an hour in the company of John Bishop would be reason enough to tune in, but he's plundered his address book and persuaded his celebrity pals to dust off their favourite one-liners.
Robbie Williams, John Prescott, Ricky Hatton, Freddie Flintoff and Warwick Davis all do their best to make us giggle, along with fellow stand-ups Jason Manford, Jason Byrne, Andi Osho and Mick Miller.
Members of the public are also given the chance to exercise their funny bone, including an impish schoolboy with a joke about poo (naturally) and a side-splitting laugh. As you'd expect from that line-up, it's a mixed bag but squeaky clean, so there's no need to cover young ears.
Claire Webb, Radio Times, 11th January 2013The topical comedy panel quiz returns after its summer break. Joining host Dara O Briain and regulars Hugh Dennis, Andy Parsons and Chris Addison are guests Greg Davies, Andi Osho and Stewart Francis - the laconic Canadian one-liner specialist who won the award for best joke at this year'' Edinburgh Fringe Festival with his gag about Posh and Becks giving children a bad name.
Michael Hogan, The Telegraph, 5th September 2012Although its derivative format and focus on the relatively recent past makes it feel at times a little like Have I Got Some Really Very Stale News for You, when it hits its stride this Griff Rhys Jones-chaired comedy quiz can provoke an occasional belly laugh. Tonight, comedians Robin Ince and Andi Osho join the reliably acerbic team captains Marcus Brigstocke and Charlie Baker, attempting to answer random questions on a wide range of tentatively historical topics.
