Critic Reviews for The Wipers Times
All Critics (8) | Top Critics (1) | Fresh (7) | Rotten (1)
It's a quietly remarkable story, told with respect and, appropriately, irreverence.
Even fleshed out with free-standing cabaret-style sketches, at 90 minutes this sometimes felt as long as waiting for the war to end all wars itself to end.
A neat way to portray the partnership's comic material.
Despite the limitations of a TV budget and scope, this is a well-acted account of a lesser-known story of World War I.
It was a shame to cram so much great material into a one-off. And it's a worse shame that, if Ian Hislop can write like this, he so often prefers to waste his talent on repetitive panel games.
The Wipers Times presented them as two men with a shared and anarchic sense of humour and Ben Chaplin and Julian Rhind-Tutt (both excellent) had a great time trading quips and drinks while keeping their lips appropriately stiff.
