Brian Logan, The Guardian, 30th March 2022TV review: The Witchfinder, BBC Two
I've been looking forward to The Witchfinder ever since it was announced. As comedies go you can't get a better pedigree. It is written by Neil and Rob Gibbons, the brothers who write Alan Partridge, and stars Tim Key - Sidekick Simon from Partridge and a million other shows - and Daisy May Cooper from This Country. And I doff my cap to everyone, it's ruddy brilliant.
Bruce Dessau, Beyond The Joke, 8th March 2022The Witchfinder, BBC Two, review
Tim Key and Daisy May Cooper are magic.

Ghosts can sometimes teeter on the brink of tweeness and this storyline almost pushed it over the edge. Luckily, there's more acerbic humour to keep the balance.
Christopher Stevens, Daily Mail, 24th December 2021Ghosts Christmas special 2021 review
It's hard to be too critical about the latest Ghosts Christmas special. On the one hand, the brand new episode comes in relatively light on big laughs, which is disappointing given the strong third series we enjoyed earlier this year. Instead, the ensemble sitcom focuses on ramping up the 'aww factor' for a story all about showing kindness to those in need. With this in mind, giving it any less than three stars would be enough to get me visited by three spirits in the night - even if the execution leaves a lot to be desired.
