TV: Inside No. 9 – Thinking Out Loud, BBC Two

It's another stylistic curveball for the fifth episode in the fifth series of Inside No. 9. I wondered if creators/stars Reece Shearsmith and Steve Pemberton could sustain their high standard in this run, but if anything they have surpassed it. 

TV Review: The Trip to Greece With Steve Coogan And Rob Brydon, Sky One

It's the fourth series of The Trip and this time Rob Brydon and Steve Coogan have gone all Greek on us, retracing the footsteps of Homer's Odyssey, albeit with better cuisine.

I was really looking forward to this series, once again directed by Michael Winterbottom and also starring Claire Keelan as their long-suffering fixer, and the opening scene has a couple of excellent jokes about Brydon's dislike of camping. The portents seem good, but somehow this early exchange is the high point of the scene-setting episode.

TV: Meet The Richardsons, Dave

In interviews to promote this new series in which he stars as himself with his real-life wife Lucy Beuamont, comedian Jon Richardson has compared Meet The Richardsons to Seinfeld. “You see their lives and how it informs their stage act.” I’d beg to differ about the comparison. To me the series is closer to Curb Your Enthusiasm with, albeit, slightly less inappropriateness from the male star. Heck, Lucy Beaumont even looks a bit like Cheryl Hines, who plays Larry David’s ex-wife in the hit HBO show.
