British Comedy Guide, 24th October 2018TV review: Urban Myths - Backstage At Live Aid
For the second short Urban Myths film in this run of reimagined famous events it is July 1985, we are backstage at Live Aid and, understandably, organiser Bob Geldof is in a bit of a tizzy. Nobody seems to want to go on, because they've twigged that the start of the show won't be broadcast live in America.

Bruce Dessau, Beyond The Joke, 24th November 2017Cardinal Burns present Dean and Murf review
For those in the know, there are lots of in-joke pop-culture references along the way, from Lou Diamond Phillips to a Snow Patrol spoof, but the adventure is entertaining and enjoyable on its own terms, while being probably the most interesting and distinctive of this season's pilots.
Steve Bennett, Chortle, 22nd March 2017Cardinal Burns Presents Dean and Murf is a spinoff from their Channel 4 comedy series. Dean and Murf are two superannuated ravers who live on a houseboat on the Regent's Canal and are trying to keep their heads above water without doing anything much like work. The show's targets include Loaded magazine and a splendidly sinister Ken Loach. If this turned up late at night on Radio 4 you wouldn't be surprised. To have the world of Withnail And I colliding with the comfy world of Radio 2 is more surprising.

Punchline UK, 28th July 2016Latitude 2016: Cardinal Burns and guests review
Sketch based comedy is a dying breed on television, but still an ever popular form on the cabaret scene. The one group that has breached beyond the fringe and into the nation's consciousness over the past couple of years is Cardinal Burns, the brainchild of Seb Cardinal and Dustin Demri-Burns.
