Jake Helm, The Sunday Times, 3rd September 2023Mel Giedroyc interview
The actor and comedian, 55, on guinea pig circuses, CBD patches, pronouncing her name correctly and still quite fancying Dermot O'Leary.
Nick McGrath, The Guardian, 26th August 2023The Crown Jewels review
Survives on the energy of its comedians, and the competence of the rest of the cast.
Dominica Plummer, The Spy In The Stalls, 9th August 2023The Crown Jewels review
Ultimately, The Crown Jewels is a glorified faux panto: it neither delivers on satirical wit nor offers enough audience participation. Unlike Blood's doomed attempt at a momentous act of theft, this comedy only succeeds in robbing the audience blind.
James Humphrey, The Upcoming, 7th August 2023The Crown Jewels review
"Punishingly painful ragamuffin of a play".
Neil Norman, The Daily Express, 3rd August 2023The Crown Jewels review
Al Murray stars in The Crown Jewels, a comedy that lacks sparkle.
Sarah Hemming, The Financial Times, 2nd August 2023The Crown Jewels review
Though this production may spark some curiosity with its popular cast, the humour is narrow and specifically tailored to a small proportion of the audience.
Maani Way, North West End UK, 2nd August 2023The Crown Jewels review
If you were being charitable you could say that it's an homage to Restoration theatre - a cheerful sense of bawdiness redone for a (relatively) modern audience. It doesn't feel very current though.
