British Comedy Guide, 23rd January 2017BBC orders Inside No. 9 Series 4
The BBC has ordered a fourth series of Inside No. 9, the award-winning comedy show created by Steve Pemberton and Reece Shearsmith.
British Comedy Guide, 19th January 2017Binging: Inside No. 9
Deft, dense writing as funny as it's surprising and darker than the inside of a cow. Kiri Pritchard-McLean could yell about Reece Shearsmith and Steve Pemberton's compendium of nightmares until her throat's raw.
Kiri Pritchard-McLean, Standard Issue, 5th January 2017Inside No. 9 'The Devil of Christmas' review
Steve Pemberton & Reece Shearsmith's opener was them at the very peak of their powers and showed why there is no-one even coming close to what they can achieve in just 30 minutes of television.
Dodo's Words, 5th January 2017Devil of Christmas review - macabre merriment all round
Reece Shearsmith and Steve Pemberton take us back to the 1970s for this nightmarish festive folk tale.
Rebecca Nicholson, The Guardian, 28th December 2016Inside No. 9 review
It's a gargantuan, incredibly precise task to make such gloriously terrible TV, a skill reserved for only the greatest of comics. But Inside No. 9 achieves it - a demented, finely-honed comedy that also works as a twist-filled Christmas mystery.
Adam White, The Telegraph, 28th December 2016Inside No 9: The Devil Of Christmas preview
Reece Shearsmith and Steve Pemberton have taken a leaf out of the Garth Marenghi's Darkplace playbook for the much-anticipated return of Inside No. 9, give or take a decade.
Steve Bennett, Chortle, 27th December 2016Inside No. 9 - The Devil Of Christmas review
Like with all of Inside No. 9 however, the real twist in the tale comes at the very end. Of course it would be bad of me to spoil it, which just goes to show what incredible writing talent Shearsmith and Pemberton have. The horror and dark twists certainly come as a surprise, while the commentary provides the humour. It is worth watching a few times because you can easily miss some gags.
Ian Wolf, On The Box, 27th December 2016Inside No. 9 Christmas special review
The opening episode of the third season of Inside No 9 is a Christmas themed nightmare, dealing with the old legend of Krampus.
Andrew Allen, Cult Box, 27th December 2016Inside No. 9: The Devil Of Christmas review
The Inside No. 9 Christmas special is an expertly layered treat for fans of vintage horror.
