A few days ago Inside No 9 co-star/co-creator Reece Shearsmith posted this message on Twitter: "I've read a lot of previews that ruin the up and coming episodes ... they just can't seem to help themselves. So if you want our stories to have maximum effect.. I would say don't read anything in advance."
It's series seven and six more challenges to write about Inside No 9 without giving anything away. I was lucky enough to see two episodes including this opener with special guest Diane Morgan at the BFI earlier this year and the audience was sworn to secrecy. As far as I know nobody has blabbed about this run from the witty and warped minds of writers/stars Reece Shearsmith and Steve Pemberton.
Inside Number 9, Series 7 launches on Wednesday 20th April, 10pm on BBC Two and BBC iPlayer
Steve Pemberton & Reece Shearsmith return to present their seventh anthology of award-winning films. Six unique stories filled with a delicious mix of dark comedy, high stakes, subtle twists and heart-stopping horror.
Amanda Abbington, Frances Barber and Reece Shearsmith are set to star in The Unfriend, a new play by Steven Moffat.
It will be directed by Shearsmith's League of Gentlemen colleague Mark Gatiss and will run at the Chichester Festival from 21 May – 9 July.
The cast also includes Maddie Holliday and Michael Simkins, whose CFT appearances include Fracked! and Yes Prime Minister.
Inside No. 9 duo Reece Shearsmith and Steve Pemberton are to appear together live onstage around the country.
Principal photography is now underway on the seventh series of Steve Pemberton and Reece Shearsmith’s critically acclaimed and BAFTA-award winning anthology series Inside No. 9 (6 x 30), plus a first look image of the brand new series is also revealed alongside casting details.
Update 16/11- national tour now announced - dates and ticket links here.
Fans will have a chance to see Reece Shearsmith and Steve Pemberton onstage later this year when they discuss their work with a live audience at the Barbican Hall in London on Friday, 29 October 2021 at 8pm.
Film-maker Ben Wheatley has always had a penchant for the pagan. I was watching one of his early films, Kill List, over the weekend and despite it being a violent film about contemporary hit men there was still room for something occult-ish in it. The real abberation in his career seems to have been last year's remake of Rebecca for Netflix with Armie Hammer – a film so different in tone to In The Earth I had to go on google to check that there weren't two directors called Ben Wheatley.
This excellent series finished on a high note with Last Night of the Proms, which kind of had everything from farcical laughs to brutal violence to political subtext.
The scene was set as a clan gathered in front of the television as they always do, to watch the famous flag-waving final event of the annual Proms season. But tensions soon arise over the nature of patriotism and nationalism, with each member of the group getting irate in their own particular way.
Inside No 9 is having a great run at the moment. On Sunday night the anthology series won the Bafta award for Best Scripted Comedy but as any fan will already know, there is so much more to Reece Shearsmith and Steve Pemberton's masterwork than mere laughs. And this week's chilling How Do You Plead? very much underlines that point brilliantly.
