Stath Lets Flats review

This is one-note comedy -- hilarious if you enjoy the sight of implausibly stupid people embarrassing themselves endlessly.

Christopher Stevens, Daily Mail, 27th October 2021

The Outlaws review

These Outlaws are so confused... I don't know whether to laugh or cry.

The Larkins review

The trouble is, though it rattles along at pace, it keeps veering off the path, like a wonky pram. Some of the dialogue is especially suspect.

Guilt review

As an advert for Edinburgh, the cruelly comic thriller Guilt (BBC2) is inviting.

The Larkins review

Never mind the all-star cast. Every eye was on the relative unknown, as Sabrina Bartlett took on the mantle of Mariette, the original Darling Bud Of May.

Review: Comedy Greats - Laurel & Hardy

Children today, once they get accustomed to the strangeness of the pre-war clothes and the flickering black-and-white film, will still find their surreal antics hilarious. Bring back Stan and Ollie!

Poor viewers of Joe Lycett's 'Watchdog' sold a pup

It's meant to be a knockabout version of Watchdog, an hour-long sally into consumer affairs with plenty of comedy. If either part of the format was strong, Joe might have a hit. But the endless toilet jokes aren't funny and the crusades are pathetic.

Ladhood review

It all reeks of adolescent hormones and acrid aftershave, and makes for fairly unpleasant viewing.

Review: Ghosts will haunt our screens for years

If any current sitcom has a hope of being repeated 40 years from now, bet on Ghosts (BBC1). It's very funny - but so were lots of great comedies that have faded into obscurity.
