Steve Bennett, Chortle, 13th September 2018The Luke McQueen Pilots: Sex With My Father review
After a disappointing opening episode that failed to make its mark among so many other awkward mockumentaries, the second of Luke McQueen's supposedly aborted BBC pilots is on a firmer footing. Even if the title star is outshone by fellow comic Mark Silcox, who quietly steals every scene he's in.
Steve Bennett, Chortle, 12th September 2018Kevin Bridges: The Brand New Tour review
At 31, Kevin Bridges might still seem too young to be doing nostalgia humour. But as a comedian who celebrates direct human interaction, especially at its most playful and teasing, he's wistful for those simpler times before the internet.
Steve Bennett, Chortle, 10th September 2018Amused Moose showcase review
Maisie Adam, who won the Moose title in Edinburgh, got the biggest laugh of the show with a this-night-only comment about the taller blokes who had been on before her, stealing a bit of her thunder about being a taller woman.
Steve Bennett, Chortle, 6th September 2018Early Doors review
Full of geniality and honest humour, the stage incarnation is a real crowd-pleaser, guaranteed - with the aid of an unexpected musical finale - to send the audience home with an inner glow equivalent to a couple of large brandies. Doubles all round!
Steve Bennett, Chortle, 5th September 2018The Luke McQueen Pilots: review
Such uncomfortable hidden-camera pieces are what defines this first Luke McQueen Pilot, but they are rare moments in a show that can otherwise feel anaemic, with dubious ideas stretched thin.
Steve Bennett, Chortle, 5th September 2018Review: League Of Gentlemen Live Again!
Overall this tour offers an embarrassment of precious things - a joy and a delight for anyone whose heart lies in Royston Vasey, and will never leave.
Steve Bennett, Chortle, 26th August 2018Steve Bennett: a jaded opinion?
Steve Bennett is a well respected man about the comedy circuit, yes, but I am getting the feeling he is rapidly becoming the Arsene Wenger of comedy reviewing.
