Review:
Pop is as sexy, genial, generous, and boozy as ever. Ma is a worthy match for him in all these qualities (The Times)
As funny as Evelyn Waugh and as enchanting as Laurie Lee's Cider with Rosie. Don't miss it (- Herald)
Pop Larkin, Ma and their progeny . . . are essentially English of the rich and ribald England of Chaucer and Shakespeare. A superb and timeless comedy (- Scotsman)
