"(Series: The Beauty Queen Riots) There’s some brilliant journalism from Bassey here, born of his knowledge of the area and his sensitive interviewing. His contextualisation of local and systemic pressures is exemplary, and the show demonstrates how community policing actually does work (though – surprise – austerity cuts have meant such initiatives have now been stopped)."
Score: 4.5
Miranda Sawyer • The Guardian • Nov 14, 2020
"(Series: Epiphanies) Front Row’s John Wilson is known as a presenter and interviewer with a knack for getting creative people to chat. Wilson cut himself almost entirely out of the programme, merely announcing who was speaking when, and the result was a lovely thing: human beings recalling a pivotal, wonderful moment, a specific instance when they were so moved by art that they knew they had to do something about it."
