Reviews
Miranda Sawyer in the Observer
- Everything Is Fake and Nobody Cares (BBC Radio 4) - “Has something of Jon Ronson about it, though Bartlett has his own wry style. His delightfully revelatory series starts off well and gets better as it goes along.”
Patricia Nicol in the Sunday Times
- Real Vikings (Noiser) - “The hallmarks of a Noiser show are a dramatic script rich in colourful scene-setting (perhaps with some meteorological poetic licence), lavish scoring, high-quality sound engineering and the narration of an A-list actor giving it their full Larry.”
James Marriott in the Times
- Don’t Say A Word (BBC Radio 5) - “Some listeners might reasonably wonder whether we haven’t debated all this to death. Perhaps Don’t Say a Word is aimed at the inhabitants of some remote Hebridean village who are only just learning about gender-neutral pronouns, cancel culture and the notion that wearing a Mexican hat is racist.”
