TV review: The Witchfinder, BBC Two

I've been looking forward to The Witchfinder ever since it was announced. As comedies go you can't get a better pedigree. It is written by Neil and Rob Gibbons, the brothers who write Alan Partridge, and stars Tim Key - Sidekick Simon from Partridge and a million other shows - and Daisy May Cooper from This Country. And I doff my cap to everyone, it's ruddy brilliant.

The Witchfinder review

Expectations are high when you have a cast of comedy nobility, led by Tim Key and Daisy May Cooper, and a script from the writers of Alan Partridge. Yet The WitchfinderDaniel Rigby can't quite deliver on that promise, if not for a want of ambition.

The Witchfinder: Even Daisy May Cooper can't make this bad comedy cast a spell

It has a glorious premise, comedy superstars in every scene, and the writers who reinvented Alan Partridge. This is TV with all the perfect ingredients, but it's missing one thing: jokes.
