The scarily versatile Steve Pemberton and Reece Shearsmith are back, turning their hands to chaotic door-slamming farce with a Shakespearean flavour. The toying with The Comedy of Errors - Rory Kinnear plays twins who unknowingly both book rooms on a hotel's busy ninth floor - and the iambic pentameter dialogue create a delightfully breathless parlour game of an episode, with the show's trademark wickedness only peeping through via a torrent of smutty wordplay. Top-hole.

Inside 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.
