Second came Frisky & Mannish’s The College Years, with four 5-star reviews, with Bo Burnham third – a three-star review from Hairline dragging his average down a shade below the musical duo.

The next best-reviewed comedy shows were, in order, Russell Kane, Kevin Eldon, Adam Hills, Greg Davies, New Art Club, Tommy Tiernan and a tie between Bridget Christie and Carl Donnelly.

At the other end of the scale, comic Nathan Cassidy scored just two 1-star reviews for his offering, The Frog That Says Sausages.
