One and done: Vic and Bob's Lucky Sexy Winners
Being a huge fan of Vic Reeves and Bob Mortimer meant that before watching this 2012 pilot from the duo I presumed by the end of it I'd be shaking my fist at the injustice of it not being given a full series, and indeed that was the case. It's not as if Vic and Bob are exactly newcomers to tv either, presumably Channel 4 knew exactly what they'd be getting from the deranged duo and so it feels odd that it wasn't picked up.
Alex Finch, Comedy To Watch, 18th August 2020Swimming with Men review
Swimming with Men is harmless, entertaining fun that won't leave much of an impression.
Jason Palmer, Entertainment Focus, 6th July 2018Swimming With Men review
In this likably daft Britcom, a motley group of blokes stave of their midlife crises by forming a synchronised swimming team.
Peter Bradshaw, The Guardian, 5th July 2018Swimming With Men review
Rob Brydon's charm keeps this formulaic comedy afloat.
Tom Robey, The Telegraph, 5th July 2018EIFF: Swimming With Men (30 June '18) review
Fun performances and sweet turns of narrative ... Swimming With Men is a comedic success
Nathaniel Brimmer-Beller, Edinburgh49, 5th July 2018Swimming With Men is easy to get along with
It's very easy to get along with, boasting a big heart that it wears proudly - like a particularly bright and cheery inflatable armband.
Ross Miller, The National (Scotland), 2nd July 2018Swimming With Men review
Rob Brydon falls in the deep end with unfunny comedy on midlife blues.
Tilly Pearce, Metro, 2nd July 2018Review: Swimming with Men
Rob Brydon takes the plunge in this undemanding but gamely performed dramedy.
Angie Errigo, The List, 1st July 2018Rob Brydon to star in new film Swimming With Men
Rob Brydon will take the lead role in Swimming With Men, a new comedy film about a man who joins an amateur synchronised swimming team.
British Comedy Guide, 2nd May 2017The lowbrow HIGNFY has a new guise these days. Rejuvenated teams seem to be at the root of this - goodnight Sean Lock, who remains on the Countdown version of the show - but with Jimmy Carr remaining, unsympathetically as ever, in charge. Rob Beckett and Aisling Bea now captain the teams as the panel roam ineptly among the week's most popular news items. Tonight's guests are Thomas Turgoose and First Dates maître d' Fred Sirieix.
