Mister Winner, BBC2 review
Gentle comedy about one of life's losers.
Veronica Lee, The Arts Desk, 26th March 2020Mister Winner review
Review of new sitcom from Spencer Jones.
Carol Midgley, The Times, 26th March 2020TV review: Mister Winner, series 1 episode 1
Given how much of a fan I am of Spencer and Pearman I will watch at least one more episode, but if it wasn't for the talented cast then I'm not sure I'd bother.
Alex Finch, Comedy To Watch, 26th March 2020TV review: Mister Winner, BBC Two
Comedy fans who have seen Jones onstage or enjoyed Clunkerdunk may be surprised by this. There is no laugh track or studio laughter giving it a slightly flat feel. But Jones is great and is always watchable, even when you can see the punchlines coming a miles off. It just seems like an odd fit for someone who is so imaginative, creative and talented.
Bruce Dessau, Beyond The Joke, 25th March 2020Mister Winner, episode 1 review
Spencer Jones is one of the funniest, most inventive comedians to have emerged in recent years - which is why it's so disappointing to see him in this most lukewarm of sitcoms. It's like putting Lewis Hamilton behind the wheel of a Reliant Robin.
Steve Bennett, Chortle, 25th March 2020Mister Winner, review
This good-natured comedy is just the tonic we need right now.
