Mandy review
These 15-minute episodes are like extended sketches, a comedy form that is almost never seen now. Morgan, who writes and directs the show as well as being its central character, has done a splendid job of repairing and restoring the format.
Christopher Stevens, Daily Mail, 6th January 2022Mandy review
Thesps given timely mocking by Dragons' star.
Carol Midgley, The Times, 6th January 2022TV review: Mandy, BBC Two
Diane Morgan is set to have another big year with a new series of Philomena Cunk in the pipeline, but it's Mandy that feels like her real passion project - she stars, writes and directs here. And now starting its second series following a very slightly extended Christmas one-off it is really starting to find its feet.
Bruce Dessau, Beyond The Joke, 5th January 2022Mandy, BBC2, review
Diane Morgan's comedy is knife-sharp, gleefully silly and a bit tired.
Gwendolyn Smith, i Newspaper, 5th January 2022Mandy review
Slap my bum and call me a satanist! Diane Morgan is back.
Stuart Heritage, The Guardian, 5th January 2022Philomena Cunk return confirmed by BBC Two

British Comedy Guide, 4th January 2022Review: Death To 2021, Netflix
Charlie Brooker's Screenwipe end-of-year reports for the BBC were essential viewing. Last year though he did a caustic commentary for Netflix, Death To 2020, without appearing onscreen himself, which didn't quite have the same sardonic sucker punches. Not for English viewers anyway. It seemed to be aimed at an American audience. And now with Death To 2021, there is a further shift.
Bruce Dessau, Beyond The Joke, 28th December 2021We Wish You a Mandy Christmas review
A 'festive special' with a splash of cynicism.
Carol Midgley, The Times, 21st December 2021We Wish You A Mandy Christmas review
Diane Morgan's hapless comedy character goes full Scrooge.
Ed Cumming, The Independent, 20th December 2021We Wish You a Mandy Christmas, BBC2, review
Even Diane Morgan has a soft side.
