British Comedy Guide, 12th October 2020Taskmaster Series 10 review
Taskmaster may have changed channels but it's still just as side-splittingly silly as before.
Lauren Morris, Radio Times, 6th October 2020TV review: Jonathan Ross' Comedy Club, ITV1
A heck of a lot packed into a thirty-minute slot. An hour would've been so much better.
Bruce Dessau, Beyond The Joke, 13th September 2020Two Weeks To Live: Series 1 review
While it appears from the first episode that much of the story will be centred around Kim's blossoming relationship with Nicky (a nicely funny Mawaan Rizwan), the heart of the series increasingly becomes the brilliantly twisted and violent mother/daughter relationship between Kim and Tina.
Eamon Hennedy, The Digital Fix, 8th September 2020TV review: Two Weeks To Live series 1 episode 1
Whether or not the series works as a whole is going to depend on how they manage the juggling act of keeping it feeling realistic despite clearly being a very unusual creation, but despite the odd flawed moment the majority of it is beguiling and amusing material, and I'm definitely intrigued as to how it will play out.
Alex Finch, Comedy To Watch, 3rd September 2020Two Weeks To Live review
Really, the entire cast is good here, with Rizwan as Nicky also impressing, and it's a shame that such a solid bunch of actors haven't been given anything more remarkable to work with.
Caroline Preece, Den Of Geek, 2nd September 2020TV review: Two Weeks To Live, Sky One
Plenty of suprises, plenty of thrills and spills and Williams is excellent as misfit Kim who goes on a literal as well as an emotional journey.
Bruce Dessau, Beyond The Joke, 2nd September 2020Two Weeks To Live review
"Fish out of water" is a stock comedy premise, and in Two Weeks To Live, Kim is a very strange fish indeed.
Steve Bennett, Chortle, 2nd September 2020Two Weeks To Live, episode 1 review
Maisie Williams's black comedy is disappointingly derivative.
Chris Bennion, The Telegraph, 2nd September 2020Two Weeks To Live, Sky One, review
Maisie Williams impresses in confident and quirky black comedy.
