Bruce Dessau, Evening Standard, 16th December 2019Interview: London Hughes and Sophie Duker

Stephen Armstrong, The Sunday Times, 8th December 2019Review: Sophie Duker
This show feels a bit like a whistle-stop tour of Sophie's life and experiences, and therefore can come across a little scatter-gun and hard to invest in. With a touch more tightening up, a stonger focus on specific talking points and ideally a few more impressions -- which she's excellent at -- this has the potential to be an award-winning show.
