Inside No. 9 Stage/Fright review

You never know what genre an episode of Inside No. 9 will deliver. Cramming all possibilities together, it's little surprise that some of it will be crowded out. But the show is sold out. Inside No. 9 diehards won't care.

Inspiration runs low in this stage spin-off.

Clive Davis, The Times, 29th January 2025
