24: Redemption, Sky 1
“If you can stand another 24 hours of this, you are very welcome to it.”
Lucy Mangan, The Guardian
24: Redemption, Sky 1
“Its last season was a messy dud with the writers admitting to having failed to find an over-arching theme. The writers' strike - of which the one-off 24: Redemption was a side gave time to retool.”
Andrew Billen, The Times
Catastrophe, C4
“It was a splendidly confident, stately and riveting sweep through the first 1,476,000,000 years or so of earth's history, with Robinson's Everyman enthusiasm tempering the odd lurch towards portentousness.”
Lucy Mangan, The Guardian
Catastrophe, C4
“It should have proved fascinating, but was a strangely dry and impersonal thing, despite host Tony Robinson's best attempts to inject some life into proceedings.”
Paul Whitelaw, The Scotsman
Catastrophe, C4
“On the sly, is Tony Robinson a qualified palaeogeologist, geophysicist or cosmologist? No - he's just quite famous, and that qualifies anyone to present anything nowadays.”
Matt Baylis, Daily Express
Department Store, BBC4
“Department Store is proving one of the best observational documentary series in a while.”
Andrew Billen, The Times
Clone, BBC3
“Clone is itself a grotesquely misshapen descendant of other far more competent sitcoms, most obviously Mork and Mindy.”
Brian Viner, The Independent
