'Hutchinson illuminates the darker sides [of the Irish question] and writes with a spry humour that crashes through the notorious English indifference to the troubles over the water... What is unusual about this very striking play is that it presents a member of the Royal Ulster Constabulary as a credible and even sympathetic human being and that it combines political concern with a desperate humour.' Guardian
'Crudely beautiful and passionate... Hutchinson holds us not only through the means of suspence, the fascination of watching all these men play cat and mouse with one another, but through a passionate advocacy of language as a means of getting at the truth.' New Statesman
'A steaming lava of words that pour down on everything and everyone to do with the Northern Ireland conflict.' Sunday Telegraph.
'An electric jolt of a play.' Evening Standard
