Inside No 9 - The Riddle of the Sphinx preview
Is The Riddle of the Sphinx the best-ever Inside No. 9? It is certainly the cleverest.
Bruce Dessau, Beyond The Joke, 28th February 2017Inside No. 9 review: a devious and outrageous puzzle
Clever, compelling and very, very dark, Inside No. 9's latest standalone story defined 'unpredictable'.
Mark Butler, i Newspaper, 28th February 2017Inside No. 9 review: 'The Bill'
Steve Pemberton and Reece Shearsmith's script is, as always, simply extraordinary, working across several different levels at once.
Dodo's Words, 26th February 2017Inside No. 9 series 3 episode 2 review: The Bill
Inside No. 9 returns with a very fraught, very funny episode co-starring Philip Glenister and Jason Watkins.
Louisa Mellor, Den Of Geek, 22nd February 2017Inside No. 9 - ' The Bill'
Four friends disagree over which of them should pay for dinner in a restaurant, with macabre results...
Dan Owen, Dan's Media Digest, 22nd February 2017Pemberton and Shearmith shine Inside No.9
If Inside No.9 has somehow passed you by you need to give it a go. We live in a bland time for TV comedy and three series in this remains a gold standard and a breath of fresh air. I can't wait to see what the duo have in store in the four remaining episodes and we already know there's a fourth series for 2018!
Luke, The Custard TV, 21st February 2017Inside No 9 review
Inside No 9 is an underrated retro treat, a throwback to the good old Seventies and their one-off TV plays. This was a devilish confection with a haunting aftertaste. Don't have nightmares. And, no, I didn't have a starter.
Michael Hogan, The Telegraph, 21st February 2017Inside No. 9: Glenister and Watkins were brilliant
Jason Watkins and Philip Glenister became the latest big names to join Shearsmith and Pemberton's already impressive list of co-stars - and I sincerely hope they refused a fee. No one should be paid for having this much fun.
Ian Hyland, The Mirror, 21st February 2017TV review: Inside No. 9 - The Bill
A masterclass of suspenseful writing and comic ingenuity, Inside No. 9 has returned with a vengeance and we can't wait to see what next week brings.
Anneka Honeyball, The National Student, 21st February 2017Inside No. 9 review
There have been episodes with greater atmosphere, invention or ideas. But as a 30-minute exercise in darkly comic suspense, this did the trick.
