In praise of Benidorm, the UK's most under-rated sitcom

It's a funny old game, comedy. Steve Pemberton's critical accolades for The League of Gentleman, and BBC2's late night cult hit, Inside No 9, are legion. But you'll be hard pressed to read glowing reviews of his eight years starring in the ITV comedy Benidorm. In fact you'll be hard pressed to read anything glowing from sniffy critics about the hit sitcom, despite its millions of viewers, longevity and viewer-voted National Television Awards. In fact, one critic went so far as to describe the viewing public a "disgrace" for voting for it.

Inside No. 9 stars open to making spin-off movie

If you're glum following Inside No. 9's finale last night (February 6), you'll be pleased to hear that - as well as a fifth series - Steve Pemberton and Reece Shearsmith would consider doing a spin-off feature film.

Inside No. 9 series 4 episode 6 review: Tempting Fate

One of the biggest laughs in this story is reserved purely for what's potentially the smallest part of the audience: that subset who have been paying attention to the background of every episode of Inside No. 9.

Review: Inside No. 9 - Tempting Fate

The ending was also oddly abrupt and left me feeling a bit disappointed underfed by the episode. It felt like an extra 15-mins would have helped, as the second half seemed rushed.

Inside No. 9 series 4 episode 6 review: Tempting Fate

Inside No. 9 signs off its impressive fourth series with a classic morality tale.

TV review: Inside No. 9 - Tempting Fate

The final instalment of this year's run of Inside No. 9 sees Reece Shearsmith and Steve Pemberton deliver their own take on a classic supernatural trope.
