Brian & Roger review
Adaptation of Harry Peacock and Dan Skinner's podcast is painfully unfunny.
Clive Davis, The Times, 2nd November 2021How Brian and Roger became a stage play
How a podcast about two sad, divorced men turned into a 'Highly Offensive' play.
Dan Skinner, The Independent, 1st November 2021One and done: Vic and Bob's Lucky Sexy Winners
Being a huge fan of Vic Reeves and Bob Mortimer meant that before watching this 2012 pilot from the duo I presumed by the end of it I'd be shaking my fist at the injustice of it not being given a full series, and indeed that was the case. It's not as if Vic and Bob are exactly newcomers to tv either, presumably Channel 4 knew exactly what they'd be getting from the deranged duo and so it feels odd that it wasn't picked up.

Bruce Dessau, Beyond The Joke, 22nd February 2020TV review: The Cockfields, episode two, Gold
There were no major dramas in the first instalment of this three-part comedy and there are none in the gloriously mundane second part either. Unless you count a minor altercation with a neighbour (Dan Renton Skinner) about a hedge.
Bruce Dessau, Beyond The Joke, 14th November 2019Hal Cruttenden, Lost Voice Guy, Angelos Epithemiou
What do you get when you mix a Britain's Got Talent winner, a misfit, and an apparent Mr Tumble look-a-like? Well, that would be a pretty good night of comedy.

Bruce Dessau, Beyond The Joke, 28th June 2018Bruce Dessau on 30 years attending the Fringe
The Edinburgh Fringe is 70 years old this year. Veteran comedy critic Bruce Dessau remembers 3/7ths of it. At least, he remembers the really odd stuff.
