Warren review

A star as miserable as Victor Meldrew? I don't believe it! Christopher Stevens enjoys Martin Clunes' performance as a tight-fisted, bullying driving instructor on BBC1's Warren.

Christopher Stevens, Daily Mail, 26th February 2019

Is it 1980, again? You could certainly be forgiven for thinking so on the evidence of this dire new sitcom from writer Jimmy Donny Cosgrove, which stars Martin Clunes as Warren, a permanently harassed driving instructor. The strangest comedy hors d'oeuvre for a new Alan Partridge show you will ever see.

A starry but sleepy series finale: Doc Martin, review

This ever-popular, televisual equivalent of a hot water bottle returns for a ninth and final series next year. It's so gentle that it could end by simply nodding off.

Michael Hogan, The Telegraph, 8th November 2017

Doc Martin review

The first five minutes of Doc Martin (ITV, Wednesday) always have a whiff of Casualty (BBC1, Saturday) about it.
