The Trouble with Maggie Cole, review
Dawn French channels Vicar of Dibley in this irresistible drama.
Sean O'Grady, The Independent, 4th March 2020TV blog: The Trouble With Maggie Cole

Benjie Goodhart, Saga Magazine, 28th February 2020David Mitchell steals the show in the Upstart Crow
Less highbrow than The Globe, less lowbrow than a panto, the Upstart Crow is without a doubt one of this year's top productions.
Hari Mountford, Londonist, 21st February 2020London theatre review: The Upstart Crow
This is a marvellous mash-up of the scholarly and totally ridiculous, performed by some of Britain's finest comedians and comedy actors.
Jack Hudson, London Theatre Direct, 21st February 2020Review: Upstart Crow is 'a rollicking ride'
There are a few fluffed lines and cringeworthy moments, but overall, it's a rollicking ride that both fans of the TV show and complete newbies will enjoy.
Michaela Clement-Hayes, West End Wilma, 20th February 2020Review: The Upstart Crow (Gielgud Theatre)

Luke Jones, Daily Mail, 18th February 2020Theatre review: The Upstart Crow, Gielgud Theatre, W1
Ben Elton has never been the coolest of comedians but he has always known how to craft a joke and The Upstart Crow is crammed with them. It is not just funny, it is futtocking funny.
Bruce Dessau, Beyond The Joke, 18th February 2020Review: Upstart Crow in the West End
With the Only Fools musical and now Upstart Crow, are sitcoms slowly taking over London's West End?
Steve Bennett, Chortle, 18th February 2020Upstart Crow, Gielgud Theatre review
The script is non-stop gags, Shakespeare in-jokes and some gloriously anachronistic lines.
