Our Reviews:
Hands down, Series 1 was first-rate! Sally was absolutely hilarious in the episodes especially “Teacher-Student Relationship,” “I’m Your Worst Nightmare,” “Virgin Sacrifice,” “NASA Communication Systems,” and “One Wrong Turn to Medieval England.” Brilliant writing and what a comical performance, indeed! Makes you wish that these episodes were acted out on-screen instead of just the audio! You may check out some selected audio files on the Audio page.. ~ Coggy
I absolutely have to agree with Coggy there! Concrete Cow is probably one of my most favourite Sally Hawkins productions! It has been said before (by many at the Yahoo! group) that SH has a fabulous voice, and she doesn’t disappoint here! The “Virgin Sacrifice” and “NASA Communication Systems” mentioned above by Coggy wins most of my vote(s) too. .. ~ Milo
