The Unfriend review

If you're looking for a few easy laughs and want to switch off for a couple of hours then head on down to the Wyndham's. Ultimately though, The Unfriend brings us nothing new. The cast are limited by a script that gives them no room to play.

The Unfriend review

Holiday friendships usually don't last beyond the sun and sangria, save for an annual Christmas card or occasional email, but Steven Moffat's comedy of manners, The Unfriend, explores what happens when things go a step further and that person you never expected to see again invites themselves to be a houseguest.

The Unfriend review

While the show has a strong cast, for the most part, The Unfriend would be better called The Unfunny. Even if it was curious enough to hold my attention throughout.

Jonathan Creek review

It's not easy pulling off the classic Christmas combo of spooky and cosy, but this special makes it look (super)natural.

Jonathan Creek Christmas special review: Daemons' Roost

This year's Jonathan Creek Christmas Special proves that there's life in the old duffel coat yet.

Jonathan Creek special review

Well, Jonathan Creek's 2016 Christmas special, 'Daemon's Roost', is neither festive, nor particularly special but it is the best that the show has been in recent years. Although if you recall 'The Sinner & The Sandman' you'll know that that's not a particularly high bar to vault.
