A Kind of Kidnapping is a vital, urgent slice of modern British cinema, rude and crude (too crude perhaps for sniffier critics) but powerful, compelling and utterly contemporary.

It's interesting that this is on BBC Two because it's really only a whisker away from being a mainstream BBC One sitcom.
Bruce Dessau, Beyond The Joke, 6th August 2020Semi-Detached with Lee Mack review
