Mrs. Brown's Boys review
If you didn't like it a decade ago, you won't like it now.
Rachael Healy, i Newspaper, 8th September 2023Mrs. Brown's Boys review
Uninspired and unoriginal, this is the kind of stuff that would shame a best man's speech delivered by Sir Gavin Williamson.
Sean O'Grady, The Independent, 8th September 2023Mrs. Brown's Boys review
The best thing about the new series of Mrs. Brown's Boys? The sense it may finally be ending.
Benji Wilson, The Telegraph, 8th September 2023
