Wild London (2026) 5/5 EDIT “It almost goes without saying that Wild London, a single hour-long film, is an absolute delight, such are the standards that Attenborough and his producers have set over the last 50 years. ” – Daily Telegraph (UK) Jan 3, 2026 Full Review Stiller & Meara: Nothing Is Lost (2025) 93% 4/5 EDIT “If you can skip the charge of who cares, however, this is a fascinating film, one that is really about family life and how the sins of the parents are visited on the children down through the generations.” – Daily Telegraph (UK) Oct 27, 2025 Full Review Billy Connolly: Big Banana Feet (1977) 4/5 EDIT “...Big Banana Feet is one of those diamonds lost in the rough of the archives, spoken about in hushed tones by the one or two people who talk about mythical film reels in hushed tones.” – Daily Telegraph (UK) Aug 25, 2025 Full Review Grenfell: Uncovered (2025) 100% 4/5 EDIT “Not only is it a one-off film, foregoing the subscription catnip of a series for a more powerful one-shot format, but it also goes for the jugular.” – Daily Telegraph (UK) Jun 25, 2025 Full Review Con Mum (2025) 4/5 EDIT “When you find out what it is, it is the mouldy cherry on top of an already very soggy, miserable cake. Con Mum is mostly a very sad film. ” – Daily Telegraph (UK) Mar 25, 2025 Full Review Bad Tidings (2024) 2/5 EDIT “Mack and McCausland can do this kind of thing in their sleep. Which is why it was probably best watched half-asleep, too.” – Daily Telegraph (UK) Jan 9, 2025 Full Review Let the Canary Sing (2023) 83% 3/5 EDIT “It is a strangely unambitious piece, one that keeps unearthing points of interest and then recoiling from further exploration. ” – Daily Telegraph (UK) Jun 6, 2024 Full Review The Final: Attack on Wembley (2024) 100% 3/5 EDIT “Drink, drugs and racism embarrass English football, and all are represented in this damning film about fans who stormed the Euro 2020 final.” – Daily Telegraph (UK) May 8, 2024 Full Review Another Body (2023) 91% 4/5 EDIT “Sensibly, however, the film didn’t lay it on too thick: that would have been an unnecessary gimmick, a distraction from what was already a shocking tale.” – Daily Telegraph (UK) Feb 6, 2024 Full Review Men Up (2023) 78% 4/5 EDIT “If that sounds a little cheesy, well… yes, Men Up didn’t eschew the sentimental, but it got the balance between story, message and put-some-lead-in-your-pencil humour just right.” – Daily Telegraph (UK) Jan 3, 2024 Full Review Ronnie O'Sullivan: The Edge of Everything (2023) 4/5 EDIT “The sum of it is that everyone would love to play like Ronnie O’Sullivan, but very few, on this evidence, would want to be him.” – Daily Telegraph (UK) Dec 12, 2023 Full Review Money Shot: The Pornhub Story (2023) 84% 4/5 EDIT “It was the least exciting but the most important truth to come out of Money Shot: until there’s legislation and the threat of sentencing for executives, no one gives a toss.” – Daily Telegraph (UK) Mar 14, 2023 Full Review Prince of Muck (2021) 100% 5/5 EDIT “Prince of Muck is a very slow, very moving character study that documents the inevitable erosion of the old ways in a fast-moving, ever changing world.” – Daily Telegraph (UK) May 18, 2022 Full Review Dinosaurs: The Final Day with David Attenborough (2022) 2/5 EDIT “After 90 minutes of catastrophising, we were jolted into a major key and told that in fact what we were supposed to take from the programme was an environmental message.” – Daily Telegraph (UK) Apr 18, 2022 Full Review The Last Bus (2021) 50% 2/5 EDIT “As beautiful as some of the landscapes are, and as brilliant as Spall is in repose, there is only so much sitting on a bus looking wistful that one actor can do.” – Daily Telegraph (UK) Aug 26, 2021 Full Review The Truffle Hunters (2020) 97% 4/5 EDIT “Here is a documentary that is simple but contains multitudes.” – Daily Telegraph (UK) Jul 10, 2021 Full Review Cinema Verite (2011) 61% 5/5 EDIT “Cinema Verite didn't get bogged down in making points about reality TV or documentary ethics, focusing instead, as all good films should, on character. Brilliant performances from Diane Lane, Tim Robbins and James Gandolfini... saw to that.” – Daily Telegraph (UK) Jun 4, 2020 Full Review 5/5 EDIT “It was complex because it is complex, and though this historical primer undoubtedly slowed the pace, it also provided some much needed relief.” – Daily Telegraph (UK) Jul 5, 2019 Full Review Revolution in Ruins: The Hugo Chávez Story (2019) 100% 5/5 EDIT “[A] razor-sharp documentary.” – Daily Telegraph (UK) Mar 7, 2019 Full Review The Snow Wolf: A Winter's Tale (2018) 4/5 EDIT “We will, I feel sure, be seeing more of Matteus the commando shepherd.” – Daily Telegraph (UK) Jan 7, 2019 Full Review Managing England: The Impossible Job (2018) 5/5 EDIT “In spite of having managed the nation's football team for five years from 2007, Capello still sees the English as a strange, confusing people obsessed with, and stymied by, events in the past.” – Daily Telegraph (UK) Jun 19, 2018 Full Review
