5/10
Some highs but a lot of lows.
3 November 2011
First of all I would like to say if your a Gavin and Stacy fan it doesn't mean your going to like this. If anything you will probably feel more disappointed than someone like me who never got into it. This is because you probably have become fond of the duo and anything they do from now on will not compared to the hit BBC series.

Horne and Corden is a sketch show so if your not a fan of shows like Little Britain or The Fast Show steer well clear! The show itself shouldn't be talked about in the same vein as those just mentioned as these shows are in a different league.

The program itself is aimed at young adults and isn't the kind of thing your parents are going to enjoy. The main problems I found with the show was that there were parts that failed miserably. At these points I think a lot of people switched off and then told there mates that "It was crap!". Like any sketch show getting into the characters is essential and the more you see them the more familiarly and funny they get but this show didn't have enough of these strong characters. Each week there was a array of new characters that didn't always work.

There were a lot of very funny bits for example the Anti-Gun crime live piece was great and the Xander character was really original. Overall it had some highs and a lot of lows. They could of put the good stuff into three really good episodes, instead they made six.
