The BBC has confirmed that Steve Pemberton and Reece Shearsmith’s anthology series, Inside No 9, will return for Season 8 and 9.

Having launched in 2014, the series comprises a collection of half-hour films, each 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.

Steve Pemberton and Reece Shearsmith say: “In the greatest plot twist ever, the BBC have commissioned another two series from us, taking Inside No 9 to Season 9. Since 2014, it has been the greatest gift to conjure these stories into being and we are thrilled there’s still an appetite for more. What horrible surprises are there left to uncover? We remain as delighted and curious as you to find out.”

Produced by BBC Studios Comedy Productions and broadcast on BBC Two and BBC iPlayer, the 12-episode commission comes hot on the heels of Season 7’s finale, Wise Owl, which aired last night.
