More amiable schedule-filler from various stages of Kay's career, built this week round a chaotic interview on Irish TV, standup about schooldays ("When you were sick, they used to put sawdust down. What were all that about?") Best of all is the Phoenix Nights finale where the club staff have to become the acts in a Stars in Your Eyes evening. Plus, a magical clip of Kay and Sian Gibson helpless with laughter in a scene from Car Share.

Gem Wheeler, Den Of Geek, 3rd May 2017Come on Kay, give Car Share fans the ending we deserve
A festive special - where Car Share Lancastrian lovebirds finally kiss under the supermarket mistletoe - would be just the Christmas gift the nation needs. Pass the Quality Street and cue up that Marillion ballad.
Michael Hogan, The Telegraph, 3rd May 2017The second run of the brilliant car-set sitcom draws to a close. As it begins, John is leaving his nan at his house to wait indoors for a parcel delivery ("Sky's on, and there's quiche in the fridge"), before heading over to pick up Kayleigh (the excellent Sian Gibson), who has somehow locked herself in her house. Despite umpteen laughs, this is ultimately an episode that deals with some of the bigger issues outside the pair's unusually compact world.

Frances Taylor, Radio Times, 2nd May 2017Episode two of Tom Binns's hospital comedy and DJ Ivan Brackenbury causes panic by dressing up as the Lone Ranger for charity. Enter Sian Gibson of Car Share fame as Hilary, head of hospital security, who's charged with implementing a security clampdown. A mockumentary where the plotting drifts but sharp dialogue abounds. Self-regarding manager Susan Mitchell ponders the beds crisis: "Can you look into the feasibility of bunk beds? Just seems so obvious - and fun."
