"Osborn's Script is as crisp and polished as you might expect if you know his stand-up, and delivered accordingly, with clarity, precision and a fine sense of how each line should be timed."

Chortle

"If George Orwell had been around to write an episode of Terry and June, he might well have turned in something like this three-hander by Matthew Osborn.
Or what starts out as a front-lawn comedy of manners - very bourgeois, very buttoned-up, very English - becomes a kind of Nineteen Eighty-Four with laughs.
