Stan & Ollie review
The actors' performances are full of love for their characters.
Danny Leigh, The Financial Times, 9th January 2019Review: Stan & Ollie
Stan & Ollie is an incredibly satisfying historical and biographical drama, encapsulating the core tenets of not only what the duo meant to each other, but also what their work means to their fans and the future generations that have grown up either around - or aware of - their movies. Baird's film can ultimately be labelled a cast-iron success, thanks mainly to the fabulous performances of his two main protagonists and their supporting cast.

Xan Brooks, The Guardian, 4th January 2019Steve Coogan and John Reilly on playing Laurel & Hardy
Laurel and Hardy - one of the most prolific comedy acts in film history - is the subject of a new movie which looks at their tour of British variety halls in the 1950s. The film stars Steve Coogan and John C Reilly. BBC Talking Movies' Tom Brook went to meet them.
Tom Brook, BBC, 3rd January 2019Incredibly, Alan Partridge has been away from the BBC for 15 years. He's been no slouch in the meantime, making films, writing books and starring in several perplexingly underwatched Sky specials, but this still feels like a homecoming. Not a vast amount is known about This Time ... with Alan Partridge, except that it seems to be an extended One Show riff that will at least momentarily see Partridge standing inside a giant petri dish. This cannot come soon enough.
