- [in 2014] I criticise EastEnders (1985) more in sorrow than anger. I'm a traditional, old school EastEnders (1985) fan and I just think too many of the plot lines don't make any sense.
- [on The Suspicions of Mr Whicher: Beyond the Pale (2014)] Paddy Considine, great actor, fine cast, perfectly OK story although I thought a bit stretched out and slow, but your problem was this was TV's first ever radio drama. It was so dark you couldn't see a damn thing. Memo to the lighting man, here's an idea, turn the lights on.
- [on Deep Breath (2014)] Thrust into the thick of it, the new guy struggled with the Doc's requisite irritating eccentricity and had zero chemistry with Clara. This odd couple are time zones apart.
- [on the rape storyline in Downton Abbey (2010)] I wish television channels wouldn't resort to violence against women to get ratings.
- [on Broadchurch (2013)] I think that the first series was the best whodunit I've ever seen.
- I've never understood a word Steven Moffat's ever written.
- [reviewing Managing England: The Impossible Job (2018)] England's football failure since 1966 has been nothing short of a national disgrace. We've had five or six teams that should have done very well in World Cups, European cups, and we've always failed.
