Daisy May Cooper says people told her she 'wasn't funny any more' after weight loss

"Why do women have to be f***ing fat to be funny?", the actor asked.

TV review: Am I Being Unreasonable, Episode 2, BBC One

This is an episode that offers a few answers thanks mainly to an extended flashback, and provides a lot more intrigue. You definitely get the sense that, like the economy, things are very much going to get worse before they get better. If they get better at all.

Am I Being Unreasonable? review

Think a ratcheted-up Motherland, twisted through with secrets and lies.

Am I Being Unreasonable? review

It must have seemed well-nigh impossible for Daisy May Cooper to follow up a sleeper hit like This Country, which drew so heavily on her West Country upbringing with her brother Charlie. But she's found fertile new territory with the new BBC comedy-drama-thriller Am I Being Unreasonable?

TV review: Am I Being Unreasonable? BBC One

Preview links for upcoming TV programmes often ping in with requests not to reveal spoilers these days but Am I Being Unreasonable? must break some kind of record. Previewers are requested not to reveal "that someone was xxx - that xxx was xxx - that xxx has xxx - that xxx is a xxx - that xxx has xxx - that xxx is an xxx - that xxx is embroiled in an xxx"

Am I Being Unreasonable? review

Mumsnet beware, Daisy May Cooper is back to her abrasive best.

Michael Hogan, The Telegraph, 23rd September 2022

Am I Being Unreasonable? review

The creator of This Country's new comedy-thriller tries to do too many things to be truly great. But its star is phenomenally funny - and occasionally heartbreakingly vulnerable.

Lucy Mangan, The Guardian, 23rd September 2022

Am I Being Unreasonable? review

Daisy May Cooper is flawless in her first follow-up to This Country.

Sean O'Grady, The Independent, 23rd September 2022
