The Guardian, 20th December 2014Review: Sara Pascoe
There's something surprisingly, undeservedly, meek about Sara Pascoe. She has a sharp intelligence and has crafted some devastatingly funny material for her current show, Sara Pascoe vs History, but there's something about her demeanour that suggests she believes she's on the losing side: and she really isn't.

Ben Williams, Time Out, 10th December 2014Review: Sara Pascoe vs History - The Lowry, Salford
Considering Pascoe spent a month at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival with the show, it's impressive how off-the-cuff she manages to make some of her zigzagging trains of thought sound as she tries valiantly to stick to the point before jumping off to another matter frequently.

Ben Williams, Time Out, 18th November 2014Radio Times review
You can debate the virtues of the ideal QI guest, but this is a pretty perfect line-up. Sara Pascoe, Bill Bailey and Rev Richard Coles all have so much to chip in and riff about that the programme reaches that QI plateau where the questions feel almost like an interruption to the general flow of drollery.
Pascoe has astonishing facts about rats' love lives, Bailey objects to the phrase "the birds and the bees" on the basis that bees are "sexless lackeys for a monstrous sugar giant" and Coles ponders the uselessness of a tie rack in a vicarage. He also enlightens us on what it means to be soundly firked. That's firked.
