Well at least one good thing has come out of this bloody pandemic. We've got another Wipe.
Bruce Dessau, Beyond The Joke, 14th May 2020Charlie Brooker's Antiviral Wipe review
There's no surer sign that the hairline cracks in the 'Keep Calm and Carry On' all-in-this-together, good-old British pluck response to Covid-19 has fissured into more open derision of government failures than having cynic-in-chief Charlie Brooker return to our screens.
Steve Bennett, Chortle, 14th May 2020Charlie Brooker's Antiviral Wipe, review
Brilliant, topical comedy that burns with a necessary rage.
Adam White, The Independent, 14th May 2020Charlie Brooker's Antiviral Wipe review
Brooker is never better than when at home, shouting at the TV, so perhaps it's little wonder the lockdown finds him on his best-ever form.

Anita Singh, The Telegraph, 14th May 2020TV review: Charlie Brooker's Antiviral Wipe
This was fantastic stuff then, both fascinating and funny, and it deserves a huge amount of credit for dealing with a topic that many are sick to death off in an original, honest and consistently hilarious manner.
Alex Finch, Comedy To Watch, 14th May 2020Charlie Brooker interview
The master of dystopian TV is returning for a coronavirus-themed Wipe. How has the current global catastrophe compared with those in his imagination?
