Allelujah review

Starry NHS hospital drama is less than scalpel-sharp.

Danny Leigh, The Financial Times, 16th March 2023

Allelujah, Alan Bennett's 2018 play about the ailing fortunes of a geriatric hospital, gets a tonally bizarre big screen adaptation courtesy of Call The Midwife creator Heidi Thomas and director Richard Eyre. A slew of beloved British stage and screen stars - among them Judi Dench and Derek Jacobi - play the hospital's ailing patients, while Jennifer Saunders (as a ward nurse), Russell Tovey (as a government management consultant) and Bally Gill (as an immigrant doctor) attend to the plot, which revolves around the cash-strapped hospital's viability. Tovey gets a couple of good scenes, but a last-minute swerve into The Good Nurse territory doesn't come off at all.

Review - Inside No. 9: How Do You Plead?

Perhaps it's not the most inventive episode the duo has ever put out, but it knows what it wants to do and does it so effectively.

Inside No. 9 6.5 review: How Do You Plead?

I generally try to avoid spoilers when talking about Inside No. 9. I never want to take away that incredible feeling of having the rug pulled out from under you. That being said, it's difficult to talk about the latest episode without revealing some pretty important details so I'm just going to say right off the bat...

Inside No. 9 review: How Do You Plead?

Guilty or not guilty? Sir Derek Jacobi is a wonderful guest star in a terrific episode about a damned tricky legal case...

Review: How Do You Plead? one of No. 9's creepiest eps

Given this is Inside No. 9, nothing in How Do You Plead? is as clear-cut as it seems and everyone has something to hide.
