Critical reaction[edit]
The critical reception of all 4 shows was exceptional, with all Adelaide Fringe seasons being highly acclaimed by many reviewers.[citation needed] The 2014 Melbourne International Comedy Festival season was described as "great little revue [that] deserves a wider audience according to a review in the Melbourne newspaper Herald Sun.[11]
"it is constantly engrossing, even for a reviewer who has very little knowledge of the show." - 4.5 Stars, The Herald Sun (2014) [12]
"I came into this show not knowing what to expect, but it turned out to be awesome. This show is the perfect avenue to geek out through, whilst still enjoying some quick-witted comedy at the same time. The only downside was Lloyd’s anti-Tennant stance but hey, we all have our flaws." - The AU Review (2013) [13]
"This is no dry lecture, but it does cover all of the Doctors, including those in films and tele-movies, and how the actors have played them, as well as identifying significant points in the history of the series. The interaction between the three presenters, hilariously throwing in many an ad lib within the scripted presentation, led to further chit chat with a few members of the audience. There were a couple of chances for audience members to come forward and add to the discussion, as well as light hearted quizzes, conducted with more than a little assistance to ensure that the contestant won a bag of, what else, jelly babies." - Broadway World (2013) [14]
"A great way to continue celebrating a show adored by so many." - The AU Review (2014) [15]
