Off The Telly Article

Mock the Week achieves something quite impressive - it manages to get every toe-curling feature of panel-based programming into one half hour show. Including over-reliance on the concept; thinly disguised scripted material; and a complete lack of anything topical to say.

John Walker, Off The Telly, 24th June 2005
