They've been known to turn a theatre dark, close a restaurant and empty a gallery. But also make stars overnight and sell out performances.
In this three part highly entertaining series Edi Stark opens the page on newspaper critics and asks what qualifies them to judge what's funny, what's good on the stage, on the gallery wall or served on a plate.
