Live review: Count Arthur Strong, Margate
One of the heated debates on social media is whether Count Arthur Strong has transferred successfully from radio to television. There is a school of thought that somehow the dotty creation of Steve Delaney works better without pictures. I'm not so sure myself. One thing I am sure of though is that he certainly works brilliantly on the live stage.

Looking for something to make your Friday nights funny? The farce is Strong with this one...
Mark Braxton, Radio Times, 19th May 2017Is Count Arthur the comedy the BBC is looking for?
The BBC One sitcom has finally got a prime-time slot - and co-writer Graham Linehan could not be more delighted.
Ben Dowell, Radio Times, 18th May 2017TV show: Count Arthur Strong, BBC1
It's been a while since the last Count Arthur Strong series but the third run does not mark a significant change.
Bruce Dessau, Beyond The Joke, 17th May 2017Count Arthur Strong: The Sound of Mucus review
Delightfully cack-handed, stumbling and foolish shenanigans from Steve Delaney's wholly inhabited Count.
Jay Richardson, The List, 10th May 2017Count Arthur Strong review
Frequently, the excellent writing and Steve Delaney's total-submersion performance (ably supported by Terry Kilkelly and Dave Plimmer) elevate proceedings to a comic state of grace.
