The Importance of Being Earnest review

The carnival-like curtain call is as loud and over the top as the rest of the evening. It's all very enjoyable and I wouldn't want to put anyone off seeing it when it screens in cinemas in February. But it is as if Max Webster, faced with his debut at the National, has decided to use every trick in the box and see what works.

Sex Education review

Although it is quite sad to say goodbye to this show, and in some areas appears rushed as the showrunners attempt to conclude the various plot points, season 4 is both heart-warming and intense, and a poignant send off.
