Mike Ward previews tonight's TV: No Offence
If I were to tell you that by the end of this episode, after just short of an hour's TV, I'd found myself not only horrified, not only hooked but had also actually laughed and cheered on more than one occasion, you could be forgiven for thinking I wasn't quite right in the head. But I am, I promise you.

The Guardian, 31st March 2018TV preview: Hold The Sunset, Sunday, BBC One, Episode 2
It's a soft, gentle predictable script given half a kiss of life by a 24 carat cast. Of course there are better things on TV. And better things to do on a Sunday evening at 7.30pm. But I'm sure there are some people out there who like it. Though if they aren't the over-fifties who tweeted me saying it was shite I do wonder who they were.
