The anthology format continues as before, each film being set in a different location, the style and tone changing each week, combining a different mix of horror, thriller, drama and comedy, always aiming to surprise, delight, unnerve and amuse in equal measure. With ambitious production values and screenplays that tell original stories in ways which most sitcom and drama series do not attempt, the third series will continue to celebrate the craft of the stand-alone comedy drama.

New settings for the series include a restaurant after closing time, an art gallery, a karaoke booth and even the doors of some very ordinary-seeming houses reveal some of the best and most intriguing stories because once you’re inside number nine, anything can happen.

Felicity Kendal (Rosemary And Thyme); Fiona Shaw (The Harry Potter films, True Blood); Jason Watkins (W1A, The Lost Honour Of Christopher Jefferies); Keeley Hawes (Line Of Duty, The Casual Vacancy); Jessica Raine (Wolf Hall, Call The Midwife); Mathew Baynton (The Wrong Mans); Rula Lenska (Coronation Street, Gypo); Philip Glenister (Life On Mars); Sarah Hadland (Miranda); Tamzin Outhwaite (New Tricks, EastEnders); Javone Prince (The Javone Prince Show); Montserrat Lombard (Ashes To Ashes); Morgana Robinson (The Morgana Show, House Of Fools) and Alexandra Roach (The Iron Lady) are just some of the names ready to be shocked and surprised Inside No. 9.

Inside No. 9 is a BBC Studios comedy production written by Reece Shearsmith and Steve Pemberton, commissioned by Shane Allen, executive produced by Jon Plowman (Absolutely Fabulous, W1A), produced by Adam Tandy (The Thick of It, Detectorists) and directed by Guillam Morales (Julia’s Eyes).
