It's fun, and has a fair share of shocking moments, but a strange one to end what has been a pretty strong series.

British Comedy Guide, 15th June 2021Inside No. 9: series 6 episode 6 review
It's only the arrival of Inside No. 9's first overtly political episode that marks out how apolitical the show has been until now. Of all the uncomfortable places it's ventured, the state of the nation has stayed largely unexplored territory.
Louisa Mellor, Den Of Geek, 15th June 2021TV review: Inside No 9 - Last Night Of The Proms
Interestingly on social media some people have been saying this is the best epsiode ever, some people saying it is the worst. Which if nothing lese shows that this anthology series continues to arouse strong feelings. One thing is for certain, even a less than brilliant episode of Inside No 9 is better than most of the unimaginative tosh that passes for TV these days.

The actor-writer talks to James Mottram about spending two weeks in a secluded forest for the new Ben Wheatley film, the snobbery around sketch shows, and why it was 'horrifying'hat people thought the character of Papa Lazarou was racially inspired.
James Mottram, The Independent, 13th June 2021Inside No. 9: How Do You Plead? review
With strong performances (again), jet-black humour (again) and disquieting tone of foreboding (again), How Do You Plead? continues Inside No. 9's enviable track record of suspenseful, out-of-the-ordinary television. No wonder they won the Bafta last night...
