Holmes And Watson: When I first saw the trailer for this, it looked pretty terrible. I’m not a Will Ferrell-does-comedy fan which doesn’t help, but John C Reilly is usually worth a watch. However, as well as the pre-opening credits scene being pretty good (which could be because Ferrell isn’t in it, as it shows […]

He’s scruffy and wears muddy boots inside the house (not on […]

Back is the sort of thing I like in TV and films – when actors/writers, who have brought you something you’ve enjoyed, get back together for something new. You know they can’t retread old ground with their best-known work, so the answer is for the same people to do something new. Okay, so both David […]

Liar centres around a couple going on a date and a particular situation allegedly happening, but one of them is the titular liar, but who? (Of course, I’m not saying, as that would rather defeat the point of you watching this brilliant drama which premieres next Monday on ITV at 9pm) Dom RobinsonReviewer of movies, […]

So, imagine his surprise when his mum gives him his birthday present of a long-delayed letter for […]

David Brent: Life On The Road shows that when it comes to his character from The Office, Ricky Gervais is having the last laugh. And it’s on us. Gervais once used to make fresh, original comedy programmes. The first two series of The Office were fantastic. Then, after his character was sacked, the 2003 Christmas […]
