Christopher Hooton, Metro, 23rd July 2011A few surprises: the petite lady with a tattoo in the audience front row is not, as host Rob Brydon guesses, a beautician. Meanwhile, according to occasional Hollywood-botherer Matt Lucas, Tom Cruise is even shorter than we think. But how short? "One foot." U2 suppport act the Script and ventriloquist/monkey-wrangler Nina Conti complete the guestlist for this welcome second series. It doesn't get any cuddlier.

British Comedy Guide, 16th July 2011Enjoy last year's BBC comedy The Trip? This is what inspired it. Directed by Michael Winterbottom and starring Steve Coogan and Rob Brydon as caricatures of themselves (just like The Trip), it's a film about the making of a film of the knotty 18th-century novel Tristram Shandy. The bickering between Coogan and Brydon is easily the highlight.
