Jack Seale, The Guardian, 9th January 2020This sitcom has long delivered strong festive episodes, and this year's is no different.

British Comedy Guide, 8th October 2019Brydon, Mack and Mitchell - Brighton Dome, review
Each comedian has moments throughout the show that serves as a reminder of their impressive talents; Lee Mack's upholding of the show as a whole. Rob Brydon's impressions are, for the most part, hilarious. David Mitchell's solving of each dilemma, one in particular with hard, unforgiving logic is a particular highlight. It's just a shame that these were only glimpses of brilliance in an otherwise insipid performance.
