Cold Feet, episode 6 review
This charismatic gang still feel like old friends - but it's a wise decision to bow out now.
Michael Hogan, The Telegraph, 17th February 2020
At Karen's behest, Adam tries his hand at dramatherapy but finds it hard to see the point. It is difficult not to feel the same about an episode of Mike Bullen's romantic comedy-drama that seems to focus too much on Adam at the expense of equally interesting fellow characters, who this week cultivate some promising plotlines.
Mike Bradley, The Guardian, 21st January 2019
I am surprisingly glad to see Cold Feet back. Mike Bullen's writing can still startle and, on occasion, delight. True, there are tribes on alien planets, never exposed to this "telly" thing, who could have, within 10 minutes, and possessed of a decent broadband width, identified the likelihood that the way-too-young barista fancied by James Nesbitt was, rather than aching to be hit on by a 50-year-old with dyed hair transplants, actually going out with his son. Cue the biggest non-shock since Theresa May wasn't voted Dancing Icon of the Year by EU! magazine. But did anyone see coming that first smidgen of a hint of something more... between Adam and Karen? Honestly? Really?

Cold Feet review
As ever, Mike Bullen's writing offers an astute understanding of the everyday travails of middle age.
Sarah Hughes, i Newspaper, 15th January 2019
Writer Mike Bullen's Manchester midlife comedy returns with a lively opener that sees both wedding and alarm bells ringing. David and Karen confront parenting problems, Pete turns lifesaver and, best of all, failing lothario Adam gets a lesson in how to embrace his age and why it's OK to go on Tinder.
