Fisherman's Friends review
Unlike the powerful throat lozenge with which it shares a name, it is appealingly bland.
Brian Viner, Daily Mail, 15th March 2019Fisherman's Friends review
This rough-edged Cornish sea shanty comedy barely makes it out of port.
Robbie Collin, The Telegraph, 14th March 2019Film review: Fisherman's Friends
Fisherman's Friends hauls up a familiar catch of friendship, betrayal, redemption and self-analysis, shot on location in picturesque Cornwall.
Damon Smith, The Irish News, 13th March 2019Fisherman's Friends review
Inspired by a true story, this warm-hearted tale of a singing group from Cornwall is likable, if goofy.
Mike McCahill, The Guardian, 13th March 2019Fisherman's Friends review
It's a feel-good charmer set in rural Port Isaac, with a witty British - or rather Cornish - sense of humour and a selection of sea shanties along the way.
Bev Lung, The Upcoming, 11th March 2019Review: Fisherman's Friends
Undemanding, cockle-warming British comedy inspired by a singing sensation.
James Mottram, The List, 11th March 2019Fisherman's Friends review
Anyone who's listened to the Fisherman's Friends, whether live or on the radio in the car, will know what a treat they are to listen to, and the film is a fine platform for their talents. The injection of a rather soppy romance and some drama about big businessmen buying a pub does distract, but when the film turns its focus solely on the titular musicians, it's a dead cert to entertain existing fans and win over plenty more.
Matt Dennis, Entertainment Focus, 11th March 2019Meet the women running LGBTQ-friendly comedy nights
What's up Funny Women! This is Siân Docksey about to drop the hottest guest blog since someone decided that was a thing (i.e. me, just now.) I'm launching my new alternative comedy night Permitted Fruit at a lovely new LGBTQ-friendly venue that warmly welcomes anyone and everyone, so I decided to have a chat with the boss LGBTQ women who run comedy nights in London. Read on for their excellent tips and to play the accidentally-created drinking game 'How many more times will Siân derail her own interview by talking about astrology?'
Siân Docksey, Funny Women, 26th February 2019Andrew Doyle: Friendly Fire review
A contrarian comic with strong gags allied to his persecuted attitude.
Jay Richardson, The List, 23rd January 2019Review - Andrew Doyle: Friendly Fire
A leftie that the left think is alt right. Right?
