Returning: Inside No. 9

Dark UK comedy Inside No. 9 returns to BBC First with new twisted tales from Steve Pemberton and Reece Shearsmith and guest cast in early March.

An anthology of darkly comic tales by Steve Pemberton and Reece Shearsmith, each one taking place behind a door marked ‘number 9’. The show has been showered with praise and won awards including the Rose d’Or television comedy award, two major prizes at the Banff World Media Festival and a Royal Television Society Award.

Featuring a stellar line-up including Rory Kinnear, Emilia Fox, Nicola Walker, Noel Clarke, Zoë Wanamaker and Kenneth Cranham, this latest instalment combines horror, thriller, drama and comedy – always aiming to surprise, delight, unnerve and amuse in equal measure.

Fridays at 8.30pm from March 2 on BBC First.
