Rob Brydon confirms Series 3 of The Trip
Rob Brydon has confirmed that he is reuniting with Steve Coogan to make a third series of The Trip.
British Comedy Guide, 9th February 2016Now every bit as much of a festive tradition as hangovers, DFS adverts and running out of milk the second all the shops close, Channel 4's holiday stalwart returns. In a year that saw such events as people arguing over The Dress, Taylor Swift biting chunks out of Apple or bewigged omnifarce Donald Trump being consistently terrible, there's certainly plenty to cover, so it's lucky that Rob Brydon, David Mitchell, Greg Davies and Jo Brand are on standby to cock their respective snooks at 2015's most mockable stories.
Mark Gibbings-Jones, The Guardian, 26th December 2015Radio Times review
This is one for the middle-aged men in your life. Or for those who like watching middle-aged men slowly realise the oblivion that is their future. Who doesn't like that? As Steve Coogan and Rob Brydon go on a tour of the North's most expensive restaurants, it's not quite clear whether they're playing or parodying themselves. And therein lies the joy.

Chris Harvey, The Telegraph, 16th August 2015Radio Times review
No sooner has she left The One Show sofa, the ubiquitous Alex Jones is back, this time on the panel show in which participants attempt to hoodwink their opponents with absurd facts and plausible lies about themselves. It's all in good fun, and host Rob Brydon and team captains David Mitchell and Lee Mack know how to squeeze the maximum amount of laughter from each absurd suggestion. Comedy actor Greg Davies, performance poet John Cooper Clarke and TV presenter Rick Edwards are also along for the ride in this edition.
