"Don't Forget the Driver" doesn't make the sort of self-conscious claims to relevance that characterize a lot of television comedies right now, but in its distinct evocation of a place and one small but ornery man, it couldn't be more timely.

4/5
It exists within a familiar format -- the six-part comedy. You could argue about the comedy bit, because the laughs are muted, if they are laughs at all. The prevailing moods of this comedy drama are bewilderment and unease. Go to Full Review Giles Smith The Times (UK) 04/16/2019
Don't Forget the Driver is an exquisitely made comedy drama -- more drama than comedy in these early stages, and bleak as hell. Go to Full Review Kevin Carr Fat Guys at the Movies 03/25/2022
3/4
It's a sweet story... and rather quite lovely. Go to Full Review Camilla Long Sunday Times (UK) 04/16/2019
Technically it's a story about refugees and Brexit, but it is clever enough not to push the point. It isn't funny, more whimsical and light-hearted. Go to Full Review Euan Ferguson Observer (UK) 04/15/2019
It might not yet ring funny. It always rings true. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
