Hurry Up And Wait is yet another excellent episode of Inside No. 9.

A League Of Gentlemen encounter inspired Episode 4

TV preview: Inside No. 9, Lip Service, BBC Two

One of the many takeaways from this week's episode, Lip Service, is that it's so different to the last two episodes in the current series of Inside No 9.

Inside No. 9: Lip Service review

One of the more subdued entries in the Inside No 9 canon, Lip Service takes place in a gloomy and uninviting hotel room where Felix, a sad data entry manager, is holed up.

Inside No. 9 series 6 episode 3 review: Lip Service

Do not disturb? Too late. Fleabag's Sian Clifford joins Inside No. 9 for a slippery episode that repeatedly sheds its skin. Spoilers.

Inside No. 9 review

Lip Service continues a run of classic episodes.

Sophie Davies, The Custard TV, 24th May 2021

Inside No 9, episode 3, review

Brimming with bent coppers, this gripping episode satirised corruption and the deep state. If only Andrew Scott's Hot Priest had showed up.

Ed Power, The Telegraph, 24th May 2021

Inside No. 9 review: Lip Service

After an ambitious opener and an overly safe episode last week, Pemberton and Shearsmith get the balance just right with this episode.

The 'Simon Says' scene that almost went too far

Reece Shearsmith jokes that filming one scene in Inside No. 9 series six episode 'Simon Says' left him fighting for his life...

TV preview: Inside No 9 - Simon Says, BBC Two

My time in various lockdowns over the past year has certainly not been completely frittered away. I may not have baked any banana bread or mastered a foreign language, but I did something much more fruitful. I watch every episode of Inside No 9 anthology forerunner Tales Of The Unexpected, the old ITV series - now available on Sky Arts - that took its cue from the twisted imagination of Roald Dahl.
