Bruce Dessau, Beyond The Joke, 7th February 2018Review: Inside No. 9 - Tempting Fate
The ending was also oddly abrupt and left me feeling a bit disappointed underfed by the episode. It felt like an extra 15-mins would have helped, as the second half seemed rushed.
Dan Owen, Dan's Media Digest, 7th February 2018The last instalment of this generally fine series is sadly not its best episode. It's a supernatural tale of a dead hoarder and the council contractors sent to go through his belongings, carrying the slightly trite message: "Be careful what you wish for." Still, it does feature Nigel Planer, no longer a Young One, alas.

The script was as rigorous as ever, with nothing said or seen without reason.
Gabriel Tate, The Telegraph, 6th February 2018Inside No. 9: Series 4, Episode 6: Tempting Fate review
This episode is truly creepy. The atmosphere is genuinely disturbing. Due to the darkness of the surroundings and huge piles of boxes all over the place, it feels really claustrophobic. Although there are episodes set in much smaller spaces, the whole tone of the show makes you feel that you are trapped, in the same way the characters are trapped by the wishes of the hare.
