The Telegraph, 2nd January 2018Inside No. 9 - Series 4, Episode 1, Zanzibar, preview
The brilliant Inside No. 9 has tended to be one of the hardest TV shows to write about for fear of giving away spoilers. But actually the first episode of the new series is pretty straightforward to describe so hopefully reading this will not spoil your enjoyment.

The Velvet Onion, 28th December 2017Inside No. 9 Series 4 guest stars revealed
The list of stars that will appear in Series 4 of Steve Pemberton and Reece Shearsmith's Inside No. 9 have been revealed.
British Comedy Guide, 7th April 2017This election satire promises to be so topical, it will only be written in the hours before it's broadcast.
Wherever they aim their comedy sights, it's certainly bound to liven up what's been a distinctly laugh-free election campaign.
What we do know is the show will be written by those clever bods Andy Hamilton and Guy Jenkin, who brought us Drop the Dead Donkey and Outnumbered. A ringing endorsement if ever there was one.
And it will star the likes of Hugh Dennis, Trevor Cooper, Sarah Hadland, Ben Miller and Hattie Morahan. So far, so good.
The trailer features the cast as confused, gormless politicians, all effectively scratching their heads and wondering what to say. So it's all looking rather authentic.
The five half-hour episodes, broadcast in the run up to the May 7 election, will intercut between the campaign buses of the four main parties - Conservative, Labour, Liberal Democrats and UKIP, who don't really need to be satirised.
On each bus, cameras follow the staff including analysts, interns, IT geeks, social media monitors, empathy consultants (seriously?) and even bus drivers as they deal with the latest crisis or drama. A crisis or drama that we will have only just heard about in real life.
Claire Murphy, The Mirror, 21st April 2015Radio Times review
Bored and unamused by the election? Well, this new comedy from Drop the Dead Donkey and Outnumbered creators Andy Hamilton and Guy Jenkin may cheer you up. It takes you onto the battle buses of the Tories, Labour, Ukip and Lib Dems (the Greens appear to have been snubbed), with key scenes written and performed close to transmission. The idea is to insert highly topical material at the very last minute, something which worked so stunningly in Drop the Dead Donkey.
And with great performers like Ben Miller, Hattie Morahan and Sarah Hadland to call on and a rich collection of characters including press officers, empathy consultants, special advisers (aka "spads"), IT wizards, social media monitors, political analysts, interns and of course bus drivers, chances are this may well get your vote.
