Morgana Robinsons deranged creations in The Morgana Show should delight anyone with a thirst for League Of Gentlemen-style weirdness.

Julia Raeside, The Telegraph, 30th November 2010

Whether or not she makes you laugh, Morgana Robinson is without question a staggeringly brilliant vocal and facial mimic. Her Fearne Cotton and X Factor bits aren't her finest, but it's spooky how she manages to morph into her targets. Morgana doesn't just look like Fearne Cotton - she is Fearne Cotton. She's also extremely funny. Morgana's from-scratch characters are cleverly conceived, weird but recognisable enough to not feel like you're being pummelled by surreal in-jokes. Best are the crazy old lady who thinks little people live in her radio, Madolynn, a spent drunk and one-time Hollywood siren and Gilbert, the socially incompetent teenager. Well done to Channel 4 for not wimping out and stashing Morgana on E4.

Ruth Margolis, Radio Times, 30th November 2010

Little-known comedian Morgana Robinson brings her own sketch comedy series to Channel 4. It's pretty standard stuff for late-night comedy - a bit surreal, occasionally amusing. She sends up celebrities such as Fearne Cotton and Cheryl Cole as well as performing her own original characters.
