Can't Bully Me

Can’t Bully Me, BBC3,
(Minnow Films)

“One of the most worrying elements to emerge over the course of the programme was the correlation - entirely unremarked upon by the narrator - between young carers and bullying.”
Alice-Azania Jarvis, The Independent

“The idea that our school system takes young people like these and messes them up so horribly that they can’t sit in a classroom without hyperventilating is in a way more shocking than anything an individual bully could say or do.”
Matt Baylis, The Express

Misfits, E4,
(Clerkenwell Films)

“It is impossible to become inured to Misfits. It’s still preposterous, and still manages to be scary with it. It’s also still funny, and jarringly shocking.”
Tim Dowling, The Guardian

Raising Hope, Sky1,
(Amigos de Garcia Productions)

“Perverse, briskly paced and hilarious.”
Tim Dowling, The Guardian

Live at The Apollo, BBC1,
(Open Mike Productions)

“It was a bravura, five-star performance”
Andrew Billen, The Times

Beeny’s Restoration Nightmare, Channel 4,
(Renegade Pictures)

“Episode two, and Sarah doesn’t seem much closer to achieving her ambitions.”
Alice-Azania Jarvis, The Independent
