Miles Jupp interview

Miles Jupp, the actor, comedian and host of BBC Radio 4's The News Quiz, can't help but betray how very well brought up he is. Describing his latest role as Cousin Basil in the latest series of ITV's much-loved period drama The Durrells, he says: "I'm the family's cousin and a solicitor and very kindly they ask me to do some legal work."

Wales Online, 18th October 2017

I wonder what led two rather fine R4 hosts, Jack Dee and Miles Jupp, who steer I'm Sorry I Haven't a Clue and The News Quiz with panache and, I had thought, a true compass for comedy, to the sub-funny Bad Move? Naked pocket-stuffing greed perhaps? Dee, who co-wrote the thing, downsizes to the country and finds, rather than a rural idyll, recalcitrant locals and dodgy broadband, ho ho. Compared to Rob Beckett's Static last week it's pant-wettingly hilarious. Yet so, comparatively, are rectal polyps.

Bad Move: preview

Bad Move is definitely not The Good Life, since Steve and Nicky can't do anything for themselves (and don't want to grow any veg). But it feels even safer than the 1970s sitcom: a couple of enjoyably wry lines and photogenic scenery barely enough to warrant a return visit.

Bad Move, ITV1, preview

It's the holy grail of comedy. The mainstream family sitcom. So full marks to ITV1 - not a channel with a great track record in the genre lately - for having a crack. Whether they've totally succeeded is another matter though.
