The anthology series has been a breakout hit for BBC Two, with each episode telling a self-contained story confined to a single location – in season 8, those include the top deck of a London bus and a remote lakeside cabin.

The former is particularly noteworthy as fans have requested an episode set on a bus for years, with the idea initially being greeted with scepticism by Shearsmith and Pemberton.
The duo have announced that Inside No. 9 will be ending with its ninth season, which has already been commissioned by the BBC, but haven't ruled out the show returning at some point in the future – including perhaps as a stage play.
Inside No. 9 returns to BBC Two and BBC iPlayer on Thursday 27th April at 10pm. Check out more of our Comedy coverage or visit our TV Guide and Streaming Guide to find out what's on.
