As one of BBC’s most thrilling shows comes to an end, the creators of Inside No. 9 -Steve Pemberton and Reece Shearsmith - tease the series' final installment, explaining that although this season is quite dark, it won’t be 100% horror. “We’ve always enjoyed having a mixture within the series, so we wouldn’t make a full series that leaned into horror,” Pemberton tells SFX magazine in the new issue, which features Doctor Who on the cover.
The anthology series starring the creators themselves, Whitechapel’s Pemberton and Saltburn’s Shearsmith, first premiered back in 2014 and has spanned over 8 seasons so far, each episode different in theme and subject, but all with a dark underlying tone. And it sounds like season 9 (a highly satisfying number to end on, to say the least) won't be any different as Pemberton gives us a taste of the upcoming episodes.
