Chortle, 9th September 2023The most profound finale of the year: why menopause comedy The Change is life-affirming TV
Bridget Christie's glorious sitcom tackles everything from sexism to the climate crisis. It gives us a sorely needed onscreen role model and its ending is gorgeous. Roll on season two!

Julia Raeside, i Newspaper, 21st June 2023Bridget Christie's The Change and the rise of menopause media
I'd take Christie's dark humour over Davina McCall's washboard stomach any day. But let's stop pretending the topic is "taboo".
Rachel Cooke, The New Statesman, 21st June 2023The Change review
The Change is a brand new six-part C4 comedy series written by multi-award-winning comedian Bridget Christie, and I predict it will become a cult hit.
Helen Fear, Entertainment Daily, 21st June 2023The Change review
Bridget Christie's self-penned sitcom is certainly distinctive, while at the same time touching on quite a few familiar sitcom tropes.
