Vic and Bob's Big Night Out review
The middle-aged dads of alternative comedy return once more with a holiday special which -as can only be expected from the pair- has absolutely nothing to do with Christmas or the New Year.
Ruby Martin, Cult Box, 30th December 2017Bad accents, the return of Graham Lister, and "Idris Elba" worrying about his kestrels getting wet. Yep, Vic and Bob are back with a one-off episode of their much-missed show. As ever, they offer meandering comedy that isn't afraid to disappear up a cul-de-sac, provided there's a gag to be found there. That all this silliness imbues a warm sense of familiarity shouldn't be taken as a criticism, but an indication of the duo's abiding influence.

As uniquely strange, surreal and inspired as ever.
Jeff Robson, i Newspaper, 29th December 2017TV preview: Vic & Bob's Big Night Out, BBC2
I still love Vic and Bob and there are some deliciously odd moments here which I won't reveal. Maybe it's just hard to same the same gobsmacking impact the second time around. Particularly if it is more than a quarter of a century on.
