British Comedy Guide, 3rd July 2020

It took just half an hour to get the first real laugh when Brian, hearing a car, rushed out joyfully and was run over. If they run over one character per episode, it will be a quite jolly series but on the short side. If they run out of petrol, it will be a case of who gets Josie Lawrence, the only girl guide in the world.

Nancy Banks-Smith, The Guardian, 26th March 1990
