TV review: Breeders, Sky One

The first episode positively zips by. It lasts about 25 minutes, though I guess if you took the fucks out of it, it would be around a quarter of an hour.

Breeders - review

Martin Freeman's hilarious comedy series is almost uniquely truthful about parenthood.

Ed Power, i Newspaper, 6th March 2020

TV review: Breeders, series one, episode one

Breeders may just have been the bleakest comedy drama I've ever seen, where two parents have to put up with the insanity of bringing up two children under seven years old, and boy are they struggling with it.

Alex Finch, Comedy To Watch, 3rd March 2020

British Comedy Guide, 7th March 2018

There's an unashamedly Great British feel to this transatlantic production of Douglas Adams's funny sci-fi novel. Having dressing-gowned Martin Freeman as befuddled space traveller Arthur Dent is like Doctor Who gatecrashing Star Wars. But it's a witty, beautifully designed adventure, with starry comic turns from Bill Nighy, John Malkovich and Helen Mirren.

Labour of Love, Noel Coward Theatre WC1 review

The joyful thing about James Graham is that for all the playwright's youth, diamond wit and forensic insight, there is a deep humankindliness in his work.

Theatre review: Labour of Love

You really don't need to be familiar with the history of the Labour party to enjoy the on-going sparring between its two staunch supporters with their seemingly irreconcilable differences.
