STV, 15th March 201310 minutes with... Abi Roberts
Abi Roberts is taking a leaf out of Dylan Moran's book - and performing stand-up comedy in Russia. Roberts, a singer turned stand-up from Durham, is fluent in the language after studying Russian at university, and in 2014 she's heading to eastern Europe for the UK-Russia Year of Culture. Adam Mulholland takes ten minutes - or half an hour, if we're honest - to find out more about the trip.
Adam Mulholland, Giggle Beats, 14th February 2013Taking us into dark heart of father/son relationships
One of the pleasures of Little Crackers (Sky1), the series of short comedy Christmas films that only three years in already feels like a warm tradition, is spotting the one that has the legs to grow into a fully fledged series. Chris O'Dowd blazed that trail, snapping the cherishable Moone Boy out of his Cracker. And this year my money's on Dylan Moran.
Keith Watson, Metro, 18th December 2012This cornucopia of delightful mini dramas continues with a double helping of cockle-warmers. First up, actress Alison Steadman plays her own mother in a cool episode from her teenage years in Liverpool. It's 1962 and the young Steadman has to pull the wool over her mum's eyes if she's to see the young Beatles at the legendary Cavern Club. Hot on Steadman's kitten heels comes comedian Dylan Moran as a dad who finds himself way out of his comfort zone as he tries to connect with his teenage son, the victim of a street mugging. Catch the making-of films that follow too - they're great fun.
Larushka Ivan-Zadeh and Carol Carter, Metro, 17th December 2012The Little Cracker series of autobiographical tales continues with Alison Steadman's sweetly written and charmingly realised story of a teenage encounter with The Beatles at Liverpool's Cavern Club. Sixteen-year-old Alison (Lauren McQueen) and her pals are excited about a lunchtime gig by The Beatles even though her mother (Steadman) doesn't want her to go. But drawn by the prospect of seeing the moptops and the promise of free soup and a bread roll, the girls head to the club and afterwards even manage to get John and Paul's autographs while waiting in the post office. Straight afterwards, comic Dylan Moran recalls a story about being mugged after his first job interview and the effect the incident had on his father.

Brian Donaldson, The List, 11th July 2012Dylan Moran - B4 Black Books
While the idea for the decidedly three-dimensional character of Bernard Black from Black Books (drinking, smoking and reading) came from the genius minds of Moran and Linehan, what many British situation comedy fans may not remember is that Dylan Moran got his first major television role several years prior to Black Books in a series called, How Do You Want Me?
