Suzi Feay Financial Times Thoughtful contributions also emerge from singer-activist M.I.A., alert to the western bias of social media, and the novelist Nadifa Mohamed, who challenges some of Welsh's assumptions. Rated: 4/5 Nov 18, 2020 Full Review Ben Dowell Times (UK) Welsh probed and prodded with great warmth, intelligence and skill, but Offended By Irvine Welsh was more of an essay with a through-line that rarely deviated. Rated: 3/5 Nov 18, 2020 Full Review David Butcher Radio Times Irvine Welsh brings his cosh to the culture wars for this brisk look at giving and taking offense. As he explores provocative art, comedy and fiction, it would take an iron constitution not to be offended by something he looks at: that's the point. Nov 18, 2020 Full Review Brian Donaldson The List Everyone involved makes a decent, rational case for their view to the point that you start to wonder what everyone is actually arguing about. Nuance might not be welcome on social media, but it's perfectly at home in a Sky Arts doc. Rated: 3/5 Nov 18, 2020 Full Review Adam Sweeting The Arts Desk Welsh ought to have been the perfect investigator for this Sky Arts inquiry into the creeping threat of cultural policing, but he seemed slightly uncertain... Be that as it may, he had tracked down some bracingly opinionated interviewees. Rated: 3/5 Nov 18, 2020 Full Review Read all reviews
