King Gary, BBC1, review

In a weekend dominated by talking bunnies on BBC1, King Gary was a (slightly) more realistic sitcom pilot from Tom Davis and James De Frond, two of the team behind BBC3's addictively silly Murder In Successville.

Jeff Robson, i Newspaper, 23rd December 2018

This year's least essential programme invites Laura Whitmore, Chris Kamara, Rachel Johnson, Julian Clary and Tom Davis to go out for dinner and play parlour games to dodge the bill. It commits the cardinal sin of being less fun to watch than appear on, but they all seem nice enough.

Tom Davis gets BBC One sitcom

Murder In Successville star Tom Davis will star as a "working class wally" in new BBC One Comedy Playhouse sitcom pilot 'king Gary.

Romesh Ranganathan's strong year continues with this spoof of courtroom shows in the style of Judge Judy. It sees Judge Romesh deliver verdicts on claimants' disputes and pass fittingly bizarre sentences. Tom Davis lends support to a comic unafraid to massage his own nipples on national TV. Double bill.

Judge Romesh preview

Given that Romesh Ranganathan's entire comedy shtick is to be grumpy, intolerant and judgmental, it's perfect casting to have him as a judge.

TV preview: Judge Romesh, Dave

It's harmless fun - I'm not sure if the verdicts are legally binding - I'm just concerned that the power might go to Ranganathan's head and he might start wearing those robes wherever he goes. And also carrying that hammer around with him.

Action Team is the real Bond contender

ITV2's brilliantly daft Bond parody deserves to find a bigger audience, and the show's barrel-chested lead Tom Davis should be given his own license to thrill.
