Inside No 9: Paraskevidekatriaphobia review

Reece Shearsmith and Steve Pemberton can be forgiven for a little bit of showing off in titling their latest Inside No. 9 "Paraskevidekatriaphobia" - the fear of Friday the 13th - though this episode, for the most part, is a (relatively) conventional farce.

Inside No 9: Paraskevidekatriaphobia review

A surprisingly natural cameo from Dermot O'Leary was a highlight of this week's episode, but you can see the twists from a mile away.
