British Comedy Guide, 8th May 2024Seize Them! review
While there's a whole battalion of comic talent doing their best with the poor material they've been given, they have precious little to work with. (2.8 stars)
Philip Caveney, Bouquets & Brickbats, 11th April 2024Seize Them! review
It doesn't reach the heights of Horrible Histories - let alone Monty Python And The Holy Grail - but Seize Them! turns the Dark Ages into the daft ages, delivering a mostly entertaining, female-centred comedy enlivened by winning performances.

I'm delighted to say it's an absolute hoot. A rip-roaringly silly absolute hoot.
Bruce Dessau, Beyond The Joke, 3rd March 2024The Completely Made-Up Adventures Of Dick Turpin review
The Mighty Boosh star brings his usual chaotic whimsy to this show about a would-be highwayman - but even a cast packed with comic geniuses can't remove the stench of "Will this do?"
Lucy Mangan, The Guardian, 1st March 2024The Completely Made-Up Adventures Of Dick Turpin review
Dick Turpin's gone woke! He's now a non-violent vegan who prefers knitting to armed robbery, shuns toxic masculinity, and embraces diversity in his gang of previously ruthless outlaws.
Steve Bennett, Chortle, 1st March 2024The Completely Made-Up Adventures Of Dick Turpin TV review
Noel Fielding's dandy highwayman is upstaged by a veritable who's who of British comedy talent.
Jay Richardson, The List, 1st March 2024The Completely Made-Up Adventures Of Dick Turpin review
