Press clippings Page 5
A second series of what amounts to a vast dressing-up box for the former stars of Horrible Histories. Patient, practical Debbie (Martha Howe-Douglas) continues to straddle two lives: mundane housewifery in Birmingham and troubleshooting in the magical realm she accesses through a portal in her cupboard. The one-shot spoofs and sly pop culture references are underpinned by scripts with classic comedy chops, performed by a cast who have the talent to fill this canvas with colour.
