Barbara Ellen, The Observer, 29th September 2024David Mitchell reveals Ludwig link to wife's show Only Connect
"Alan Connor, a real puzzle-setter [who also worked as a question editor on Victoria Coren Mitchell's show Only Connect], designed all our devious puzzles and I understood as much as I needed to, in order to look like I understood them!"

Roland White, Daily Mail, 26th September 2024Ludwig is charming - David Mitchell was made for cosy crime
Mitchell suits his new role as an accidental murder detective in this endearing - if a little PG - police drama with a twist.

David Mitchell solves puzzles and crimes in BBC comedy-mystery.
Dan Einav, The Financial Times, 25th September 2024Ludwig review
It's been commissioned out of the BBC's comedy department, but Ludwig falls into the same category of charming whodunits as Death In Paradise or Father Brown - both of which writer Mark Brotherhood cut his teeth on - which would normally be categorised as drama.
