Inside 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 2017Preview - Inside No. 9: The Bill review
It's been a while - the Yuletide release of the none-too-festive Devil of Christmas notwithstanding - but Inside No 9 has returned in style.
Steve Bennett, Chortle, 21st February 2017Inside No. 9: 'The Bill' explores toxic masculinity
It's a spare, effecting and manipulative half hour that takes as long as possible before it lays all the cards on the table.
Andrew Allen, Cult Box, 21st 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.
