'Stan & Ollie': film review | London 2018

There was little that was bold or adventurous about Laurel and Hardy's comedy, which is doubtless why their films have not been rediscovered by younger generations over the past half-century; unusually for top comics, their work was benign, not subversive. But even if it only occasionally provokes big laughs, this sweet, small film makes you smile most of the way through, which may be a more uncommon feat.

Todd McCarthy, Hollywood Reporter, 21st October 2018

The fantasy sitcom starring James Buckley as an office drone cast into a magical parallel world returns for a third series in which Howell and Brian have swapped realms. Mild amusement ensues, but a decent cast that includes Steve Coogan and a manic Paul Kaye is not well served by the workmanlike writing.
