Not Going Out, 100th episode review
A hundred episodes is quite some achievement for any UK sitcom. But it also means Lee Mack's remarkably long-lived Not Going Out has come to feel like part of the furniture rather than appointment-to-view TV.
Steve Bennett, Chortle, 24th December 2023Review: Not Going Out
Well I guess if one sitcom title sums up 2020 it's this one. And they've given us a sort of socially distanced lockdown episode to see out the old year and see in the new (albeit a day early) with the entire cast including Bobby Ball all in one room throughout the special.

Old-school festive chuckles, with the late Bobby Ball as cheeky as ever.
Catherine Pearson, Radio Times, 30th December 2020Preview - Not Going Out
I've always enjoyed Not Going Out - probably because I like Lee Mack, so the return of the series was met with trumpets and fanfare at Chez Hargreaves. But that was before I realised that the new series includes kids.
