Mongrels - Series 2 review

Mongrels is one of those shows that seemed to set off warning alarms from its very inception.

Nelson is certainly a star in the making with a handful of stage appearances since the hit TV show Mongrels was first aired last summer and a second series about to screened.

Lean, mean and green on Mongrels set

From reusable water bottles filled from tanks of tap water to double-sided scripts, Mongrels is aiming to be the most sustainable production at the BBC.

Mongrels - Episodes 7 and 8 review

The seventh and eight episodes are quite a step back though. There is nothing horrible about them, but they are rather uninteresting.

Gareth Barsby, Suite 101, 11th August 2010

Just baffling: whereas Eamonn Holmes famously had a sense-of-humour bypass over The Impressions Show, he's apparently perfectly happy to send himself up here, waving a cutlass and shouting "Nobody touches me!" prior to being "medicated" for a show. Perhaps it's harder to get cross with puppets. In the series finale, an unsuspecting Destiny models for glamour photos; while Nelson's role as fire warden during bonfire night (aka "5/11") is compromised by a militant hedgehog. Also features, apropos of nothing, a Riverdancing lamb. More please.
