	Author	Review
United Kingdom	Ed Cumming Telegraph	"A brilliant, big-hearted romp through one of the great British scandals of the century (...) superbly entertaining and well constructed (...) Rating: ★★★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
United Kingdom	Ben Travis Empire	"For all the energy and excitement of the first two episodes, it’s in the final instalment that Quiz really crystallises into something great. (...) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
United States	Caroline Framke Variety	" Stephen Frears (“Dangerous Liaisons”) locks into a propulsive rhythm familiar to anyone who’s seen a heist film (...) 'Quiz' is as compelling as the show that first inspired it."	POS
United States	Louisa Mellor Den of Geek	"It’s comedic and nostalgic and filled with funny performances (...) Under the surface though, it raises the play’s serious questions about fairness and justice"	POS
United Kingdom	Hugo Rifkind The Times	"It was funny, and it was sharp, and it kept you thinking."	POS
United States	Daniel Fienberg The Hollywood Reporter	"Ethical ambiguity served up with zippy pacing and a tremendous cast (...) It's a clever construction that gets to the very root of what makes quiz shows so appealing to audiences"	POS
United Kingdom	Lucy Mangan The Guardian	"By the end of the first episode, all the main players and pieces are in place (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
United Kingdom	Ed Cumming The Independent	"This dramatisation of the 'Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?' coughing scandal is superbly entertaining and well constructed, and will likely make viewers rethink a story they thought they knew well (…) Rating: ★★★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
