Preview - The Last Leg: Elegtion Special

Ian Wolf, On The Box, 9th June 2017

Elections, eh? We've been burned before by parties that promised the world, beckoned in by beaming frontmen, only to see hope cruelly crushed by hard reality. But never mind, here's an extended edition of The Last Leg, with Adam Hills, Alex Brooker and Josh Widdicombe sifting through the flotsam of polling day. Guests include Steve Coogan, Brendan Cox and any politicians still willing to appear on camera.

Review: Mindhorn Is the perfect summer comedy

Mindhorn is one of those movies that only works for viewers who are open to it. As a person who is very open to the sense of humor on display here, I found Mindhorn to be one of the most boldly original movies to grace screens thus far in 2017. And it doesn't hurt that the movie comes from one half of the mastermind team behind The Mighty Boosh.
