Suzi Feay Financial Times 08/06/2021
3/5
Professor T serves up gentle puzzles and poignant moments along with a dash of romance and intrigue. T for terrific? T for trivial? Somewhere in between, I'd say. Go to Full Review
Rachel Cooke New Statesman 08/06/2021
Professor T is based on a Belgian series that has been running since 2015. Not to be rude, but is this why it's so weird? Has something got lost in translation? Go to Full Review
Anita Singh Daily Telegraph (UK) 08/06/2021
2/5
A show that sells itself on the quirkiness of its lead character, and makes attempts at comedy, should not have rape as a theme. That seems an obvious point, but not to television executives. Go to Full Review
James Walton The Spectator 08/06/2021
If you fancy a break from the head-scratching puzzles of Baptiste, you could do worse (ditto). Go to Full Review
Christopher Stevens Daily Mail (UK) 08/06/2021
2/5
It's full of clever inventions, but half of them seem to cancel out the rest. Go to Full Review
Barbara Ellen Observer (UK) 08/06/2021
While there's an abundance of imagination and characterisation in Professor T, it desperately needs space to spread out. Go to Full Review

I love this show. It has it all. Ben Miller is riveting as the genius professor Tempest. The production of this show is flawless in every regard and category. See more babarizam D @RT59932316 03/12/2024 Belgian version which is original one is a work of art but sadly not available on rottentomatoes to rate. The quality of that show was so high that 4 countries (France, Germany, UK and Czech) produced their own version. Sadly all failed to captured the essence. This version came closer though. See more Mary F @RT93853110 10/07/2023 I really enjoy this show. I find it has a good balance of wit and humor. See more Read all reviews
