Press clippings

The writer is Andrew Palmer and the producer is Edward Taylor, who produced The Men from the Ministry, and the two programmes sound like first cousins. You can make men at play sound light-hearted, but men at work are a lot funnier.

Val Arnold-Forster, The Guardian, 17th February 1978
