Press clippings

The Crescent seems to consist largely of stewed pseuds. There seems no hour of the day or night in which tired and emotional residents can be trusted to walk a straight white line or end up in their own beds. While funny on paper, it reminds me of a well written Crossroads. And it is evident that to write Crossroads well is to ruin it.

Nancy Banks-Smith, The Guardian, 8th October 1976

There is not one family in The Crezz whom one wouldn't emigrate to avoid. This, I'm inclined to think, could be a disadvantage if Thames see the series as a middle class Coronation Street, a thinking man's Crossroads.

Nancy Banks-Smith, The Guardian, 17th September 1976
