What the critics said:
SONY AWARD WINNER:
COMEDY CATEGORY
“I’m hooked.”
Gillian Reynolds
DAILY TELEGRAPH
“A very promising new show…the acting is first-rate all round, the use of sound is both clever and evocative at once…keep an ear out for it.”
Nicholas Lezard
INDEPENDANT ON SUNDAY
“…as strong in its way as Steve Coogan’s Alan Partridge.”
Simon Garfield
MAIL ON SUNDAY
“The stuff of real comedy”
EVENING STANDARD
“If slitting your throat at the pointlessness of human existence has never occurred to you, you won’t enjoy this series; but everyone else will.”
Vanora Bennett
THE TIMES
“An inspired, often manic performance from Johnny Vegas and a truly original script – cult listening.”
DAILY MAIL
“This is a darkly hilarious little gem. If you listen to one new radio comedy series this year, you could do a lot worse than Night Class.”
