Bruce Dessau, Beyond The Joke, 6th October 2021TV review: Outsiders, Dave
I don't know whether C4 will poach this like they did with the Greg Davies/Alex Horne show, but if there is a badge for making comics go way beyond their comfort zone in the name of entertainment Outsiders definitely deserves one.
Bruce Dessau, Beyond The Joke, 29th September 2021Outsiders review
There are strong Taskmaster vibes to Outsiders, with contestants challenged to take on various trials by an unyielding authority figure who rates their variously awful, but occasionally brilliant, attempts.
Steve Bennett, Chortle, 29th September 2021I still can't get over the fact that Noel Fielding - such a brazen goth! - presents Bake Off. Last week he also returned as one of the team captains on Sky's fresh spin on the long-running music quizshow Never Mind The Buzzcocks, alongside new host Greg Davies, new team captain Daisy May Cooper (This Country) and regular contestant Jamali Maddix. The guests were Jade Thirlwall (ex-Little Mix), singer Anne-Marie and Mash Report comedian Nish Kumar.
If you want to feel old, watch a music panel show where no one recognises Buck's Fizz in the lineup section. Elsewhere, it was entertaining: Cooper, in particular, channelled her own rock star to the point where she started reminding you of everyone you've ever seen stealing other people's drinks in a backstage area. If I have one criticism, it's that the music content is now almost jarringly mainstream. With previous Buzzcocks personnel, you got the impression that they knew and cared enough about music to descend, if necessary, into an unseemly row about Fall lyrics. Comedy is crucial, but don't (completely) forget the music.

They said it couldn't and maybe shouldn't be done. They did it and it worked. Welcome back.
