Inside No 9: Every episode ranked

We put all 24 stories in order of brilliance. You'll probably disagree.

Inside No 9: finale gives us fiendish folk-horror

Placing an age-old horror archetype in a modern-day context, what results is typically clever - and tonally rich.

Inside No 9, Tempting Fate - review

The script was as rigorous as ever, with nothing said or seen without reason.

Inside No 9: Tempting Fate preview

After their rather in-jokey satire on TV awards last week (albeit with a twist in the tale), "Tempting Fate" is a return to what this brilliant anthology does so well: mixing underplayed black humour with a compelling tale. Season 4 has been a special triumph even by Inside No 9's normal high standards, and it bows out with a bang.

Inside No. 9: Series 4, Episode 6, Tempting Fate review

The current fourth series of Inside No. 9 has probably been the most consistently brilliant series yet, delivering different, distinctive and unforgettable episodes each time. And it goes out in fantastic style this week with an episode that has numerous nods towards the horror genre, not to mention a delicious callback to past Inside No. 9s.

Inside No 9 series 4 episode 5 review

And The Winner Is ... is simply a good joke, simply told. Yes, there are darker episodes. Yes, there are ones that are more obviously fiendishly clever. But this may well be the one you keep returning to, re-watching for the sheer hell of it. 'Can't wait to see what you do next,' says Woolgar's reviewer at one point.

Review: Inside No. 9 - And The Winner Is...

And the Winner is... wasn't the best episode of Inside No. 9, and easily the worst of this excellent fourth series, but there were still amusing lines and a twist ending that somehow managed to eluded me.

Review: Inside No. 9 - And The Winner Is...

Despite the high regard that many hold it in, Inside No. 9 remains to be something of an underrated gem on our screens.

Inside No. 9 series 4 episode 5 review

Inside No. 9 does well-observed industry satire in its latest episode.
