British Comedy Guide, 17th November 2023The week in TV: Changing Ends
Changing Ends clearly wants to avoid being angst-ridden, but there's a dark thread here involving historical homophobia towards a spirited, vulnerable boy that keeps wriggling through.
Barbara Ellen, The Observer, 4th June 2023Changing Ends review
Changing Ends beams with warmth despite - or more likely because of - the endemic 1980s homophobia which forms its backdrop. Dropped into this world, like a naive alien, is a camp, buck-toothed, socially awkward child, misunderstood by almost everyone and ostracised by most of them.

British Comedy Guide, 27th January 2023Misfits: Series 4 Episode 7 review
No one, not even the newly emotionally vulnerable Rudy, can quite match the impact of Shaun Dooley, who has been quietly but furiously stealing scenes week after week as the bullet-faced Probation Greg.
Rob Smedley, Cult Box, 9th December 2012Last week we were left wondering why new boy Finn has a woman gagged and bound to his bed. Naturally, it has to do with the occasionally wonderful but mostly weird superpowers with which all the Misfits are endowed - this one is possibly the most inventive yet.
Meanwhile, ex-EastEnder Shaun Dooley growls, gnashes his teeth and generally has a whale of a time as the terrifying new probation officer. But it's still Joe Gilgun as Rudy who gets the lewdest, crudest gags and all the best lines. This week Rudy is surprised to discover he has principles.
