It is a well known rule of comedy that there is a fine line between mockery and humiliation, and Balls of Steel is a show that is definitely standing on the wrong side. Usually I have a quite a good sense of humour, and have no qualms about watching someone receive a few good natured pokes in the ribs, shows like 8 out of 10 cats and ...  Read the complete review

Obviously there have been brilliantly created UK comedies over the years from great writing teams, but no one can deny that reality comedy is still probably the funniest, because it's real of course. And that's what Balls of Steel is all about, some great comedy characters devised and unleashed on the UK public brilliantly! The show may ...  Read the complete review

Presented by Mark Dolan, this late night Channel 4 comedy is totally hit and miss, the idea is for varying comedians to do things which are outrageous, the studio audience then vote on who has balls of steel.

If there was one word I could describe this show with it'd be CRAZY, because this show does what no other comedy show has ever done it plays rude, obnoxious, ridiculing jokes on members of the public. The show has different guest which do different things and these are the comedians: Alex Zane: who makes up his own hilarious game shows ...  Read the complete review

Daring, outrageous, risque and provocative - and a jolly good laugh. I actually first encountered this program quite recently, and thought, hmm, looks interesting, bit like a modern Trigger Happy TV. Except that the exploits this lot get up to make Trigger Happy TV look so tame it's untrue. The clue is in the show's title - ...  Read the complete review

Some of the people featuring on Balls Of Steel seem not to feel shame or embarrassment and pull hilarious pranks. I started off watching the program again when one of the females attended a Sheffield United match which I went to. She stood up in front of everyone singing pussy cat dolls don't cha. Then proposed to a male stranger who she had been ...  Read the complete review

This show is hilarious. Its a simple set up, there are six comedians each week who compete for the coverted Balls of Steel Trophy, voted for by the audience. In this show anything goes and it is shocking to see how far these comedians will go to get a vote. The majority of the contestants use hidden cameras to capture the victims reactions. One ...  Read the complete review

Personally, I think that balls of steel goes too far in its quest for comedy and cheap laughs. Cashing in on the jackass money train and taking candid camera to an extreme level, Balls of Steel suffers from the common problem of noughties TV comedy, and that is that it tries to hard to shock to obtain a cheap laugh. It may be ...  Read the complete review

Balls of Steel is a show which sets out to humiliate members of the public and thus advance the career of the 'comedians' that take part in the show.
