Room 101

Series 1 - Episode 2

Radio Times
Review by:
David Butcher

Gregg Wallace, Sarah Millican and Gabby Logan  compete to convince Frank Skinner to consign their bêtes noires to oblivion. But Wallace brings a curmudgeonly, grumpy-old-man air to his nominations for the imaginary vault-of-loathing beneath the stage. His pet hates involve “old people in front of you at cash machines” and “all live music concerts”: both ideas that tip over from admirably controversial to downright mean.

Millican rails against experts who befuddle her, Logan  trashes Olympics moaners, and there’s a guest appearance from the London Vegetable Orchestra – people in bow ties playing a tune on pumpkins. It’s better than you’d think.

About this programme
