“This was witty, well-made drama – no longer as fresh or original, perhaps, but still compelling and warm.”

Cold Feet

“Cold Feet 2.0 was warm, funny, confident and, as always, cleverer than it looked. ITV has something here that Netflix or Amazon, with all their hyped box sets, don’t: a witty, grown-up soap.”

James Jackson, The Times

“Could the old magic be recaptured with this heavily hyped comeback? Largely, yes. This was witty, well-made drama – no longer as fresh or original, perhaps, but still compelling and warm.”

Michael Hogan, The Telegraph

“Unabashedly cosy television in which even the darkest moments are leavened by the right quip or Manchester United reference, it is perfect autumnal viewing as the nights draw in.”

Sarah Hughes, The i

“New Cold Feet is more than simply a reboot. Middle age gives writer Mike Bullen a whole new area to explore, full of traps and miseries and even the occasional joy. Bullen – and the cast – tackle the challenge with the same wit and warmth and humanness that they did last time out.”

Sam Wollaston, The Guardian

“Revivals and reboots of long-gone shows can be like reunions. Talked about a great deal, anticipated with mounting dread and ultimately a bit of a let down. In that way Cold Feet always had an advantage. It was about friends and couples, something universal, with no sell-by date.”

“James Acaster’s comedy has some nice character touches. The sharper these figures are observed and acted, though, the bigger the gaping hole at the centre. Actor Edward Easton (Will) delivers every line in a shouty, ironic tone. The verdict? Take him down.”

“This hollow look at the super-rich was a way to wind up ‘normal’ mums into a state of frothing indignation. I suspect it succeeded.”
