“The film ended abruptly and provided few answers. It would have been fascinating to see what Louis Theroux would have done with the subject”
The Women Who Kill Lions, Channel 4
“What is the point of this horribly compulsive programme? Ostensibly to show that more women are taking up trophy hunting, an overwhelmingly male bloodsport, and that they are on the receiving end of the vast majority of the abuse. This is unfair but it’s hardly a surprise: why would misogyny absent itself from hunting? What’s appalling about these people is not their uteruses but their mania for killing animals for sport. And seeking publicity for it.”
Chitra Ramaswamy, The Guardian
“The film ended abruptly and provided few answers. It would have been fascinating to see what Louis Theroux would have done with the subject. Ultimately, unlike the poor lions, this documentary lacked bite.”

Britain’s Favourite Dogs, ITV
“In a world where things continue to fall apart, a list of our top 10 breeds is warm comfort indeed.”
Chitra Ramaswamy, The Guardian
“The latest Britain’ Favourite Dogs felt like very familiar territory.”

All The Way, Sky Atlantic
“All The Way suffered from miscasting, led by Anthony Mackie who was not only physically wrong for Martin Luther King but could not deliver a speech to save his life.”
