Review: Jack Dee's Inauguration HelpDesk

With only a few hours before Donald Trump becomes the most powerful man in the world, now is a good time to ask questions about the future president - and who is better qualified to deal with it than four comedians and a sports presenter?

Inside No. 9 - The Devil Of Christmas review

Like with all of Inside No. 9 however, the real twist in the tale comes at the very end. Of course it would be bad of me to spoil it, which just goes to show what incredible writing talent Shearsmith and Pemberton have. The horror and dark twists certainly come as a surprise, while the commentary provides the humour. It is worth watching a few times because you can easily miss some gags.
