“The former Manchester United captain’s stark honesty in this hour-long documentary is refreshing, and devastating.”

“Any show that helps bereaved viewers deal better with their own losses is to be commended. For Rio, this was a valuable exercise, too, because it had a purpose.”
Christopher Stevens, Daily Mail

“An extraordinarily brave and moving documentary.”
Andrew Billen, The Times

“Painter Jonathan Adams more or less nailed the pre-Raphaelite style. The producers did not nail the format, however. At least presenter Giles Coren proved an entertaining gallery companion.”
