CriticsTV Critics: Pinewood: 80 Years of Movie Magic; Protecting Our Foster Kids; Sense8
“It could have been a dazzling whirl through the history of Britain’s greatest film studios. Instead, we got Jonathan Ross playing the tourist at a tatty theme park.”
-
CriticsTV Critics: Big Box Little Box; Dementiaville; The Truth About Your Teeth
“I learned that hybrid TV – this is clearly a mix of other shows nicked from other channels, Gogglebox, The Gadget Show/Gadget Man – can be successful. It’s fun.”
-
CriticsTV Critics: Modern Times: Weekend Warriors; Long Lost Family; Doll & Em
“Luke Sewell’s skilful film wasn’t really about the Tough Mudder. It was about modern masculinity and relationships. As such, it was disarmingly intimate.”

“This series will do nicely for the first six weeks of summer.”
-
CriticsTV Critics: Vicious; Eating Together; Rome's Invisible City; Man Down
“The writing is frankly snore-inducing and the acting is of the Miranda Hart School of Hammy Self-consciousness.”

“It makes you want to fall at the feet of everyone involved in love and gratitude.”
-
