The Trip To Greece review
The comics' semi-fictionalised food tour ends in the Med, as they deepen the moving pathos behind their celebrity impressions and endless bickering.
Rebecca Nicholson, The Guardian, 3rd March 2020The Trip To Greece review
Four episodes left; which is roughly 17 Michael Caine impressions. Savour them all.
Chris Bennion, The Telegraph, 3rd March 2020TV review: The Trip to Greece, Sky One
Perhaps I'm being too picky. Maybe this series has been overshadowed but the slightly stylistically similar much more more good-hearted Mortimer and Whitehouse fishing series. It is always fun to spend time in the company of the incredibly talents Coogan and Brydon but in this instalment they do not quite match their previous highs. Hopefully they will scale that Olympus later in this series.
