Mix Tape, BBC2

“But just as teenagers use music as a substitute for undeveloped, confused feelings, the hackneyed writing makes it feel as if the characters are experiencing their emotions at second hand.”
Ben Dowell, The Times

“Mix Tape is full of impressive performances and hard work from everyone involved but it never quite catches fire.”
Lucy Mangan, The Guardian

“Mix Tape wallows blissfully in the nostalgic afterglow of a teenage love affair… But we believe in it, because of the guileless innocence of the young actors playing Daniel and Alison. It’s all so pure, it must be true.”
Christopher Stevens, The Daily Mail

Bookish, U&Alibi

“Bookish is first and foremost a clever, witty, well-plotted sleuther… Bookish is a series of puzzles that are presented and then solved with a satisfying completeness.”
Benji Wilson, The Telegraph
