Simon Callow revels in a warm and finely crafted work, but longs to glimpse the real man beneath it.
Simon Callow, The Guardian, 2nd October 2010While it comes across as far more scripted than Jonathan Ross's show, there's still much fun to be had from watching Brydon perform his shtick in the company of a live audience and willing celebs. Tonight's main guest is "the king of the maracas", Stephen Fry, who amiably revisits one of his better entries in the new word definitions round of I'm Sorry I Haven't A Clue: "Countryside, which is to kill Piers Morgan." Seasick Steve and fresh-faced stand-up Daniel Sloss also appear.

Victoria Gallagher, The Bookseller, 27th September 2010Tonight one of QI's infrequent female panellists, Sue Perkins, fresh from dusting the flour off her dainty hands in The Great British Bake Off, joins the boys. She's sparky and funny and will be more than capable of holding her own with those noisy, competitive lads. They are, of course, question master Stephen Fry and genial regular Alan Davies, here with Gyles Brandreth (so garrulous he never knowingly uses two words when he can use 20) and frequent panellist Bill Bailey, who is always good value as he dallies with the esoteric, the surreal and the downright daft.
