Inside No 9, Tempting Fate - review
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.

Inside No. 9 signs off its impressive fourth series with a classic morality tale.
Louisa Mellor, Den Of Geek, 6th February 2018TV review: Inside No. 9 - Tempting Fate
The final instalment of this year's run of Inside No. 9 sees Reece Shearsmith and Steve Pemberton deliver their own take on a classic supernatural trope.
Anneka Honeyball, The National Student, 6th February 2018Inside No 9: Tempting Fate preview
After their rather in-jokey satire on TV awards last week (albeit with a twist in the tale), "Tempting Fate" is a return to what this brilliant anthology does so well: mixing underplayed black humour with a compelling tale. Season 4 has been a special triumph even by Inside No 9's normal high standards, and it bows out with a bang.
Steve Bennett, Chortle, 5th February 2018Inside No. 9: Series 4, Episode 6, Tempting Fate review
The current fourth series of Inside No. 9 has probably been the most consistently brilliant series yet, delivering different, distinctive and unforgettable episodes each time. And it goes out in fantastic style this week with an episode that has numerous nods towards the horror genre, not to mention a delicious callback to past Inside No. 9s.
Bruce Dessau, Beyond The Joke, 5th February 2018January comedian of the month #43, Kerry Howard
Kerry Howard is a comedy actress from Somerset who first came to my attention when she starred as Becky's irritating sister Laura in Him & Her (which I, for some reason, only watched last year). Laura is a very annoying character, even bordering on detestable at times, but this is all part of her brilliance. Because she has genuinely vulnerable moments in parts, and her relationship with Becky (Sarah Solemani) is one of friendship as well as turbulent sisterhood dramatics.

Jullette Harrisson, Den Of Geek, 1st February 2018Inside No 9 series 4 episode 5 review
And The Winner Is ... is simply a good joke, simply told. Yes, there are darker episodes. Yes, there are ones that are more obviously fiendishly clever. But this may well be the one you keep returning to, re-watching for the sheer hell of it. 'Can't wait to see what you do next,' says Woolgar's reviewer at one point.
Andrew Allen, Cult Box, 31st January 2018Inside No. 9: Every episode, ranked from worst to best
