OHMYGOSSIP — ‘Inside No. 9’ has wrapped up filming for its sixth season, which will air later this year.
The BBC’s dark comedy anthology series – which is created and written by ‘League of Gentlemen’ collaborators Reece Shearsmith and Steve Pemberton – is returning for another run with the likes of ‘Line of Duty’ actor Adrian Dunbar, Fleabag’s Sian Clifford and ‘Coronation Street’ star Bhavna Limbachia among the stellar cast.
In a joint statement, Reece and Steve said: “We started filming in March last year but had to hit pause due to the pandemic.
“After a nine-month gestation it’s a relief to finally deliver our sixth series to the world.
“As proud parents we couldn’t possibly choose a favourite, but like any youngest sibling this series is cheeky, funny – and can get away with murder.”
Also joining the cast are ‘Peep Show’ star Paterson Joseph, Black Mirror’s Lindsay Duncan, comedian Kevin Bishop, ‘Intelligence’ star Nick Mohammed, ‘W1A’ actress Sarah Parish and Gemma Whelan, who is known for her roles in the likes of ‘Game of Thrones’ and ‘Upstart Crow’.
Sir Derek Jacobi – back for the sixth season – is the first actor to return to ‘Inside No. 9’ after providing the voice of Dennis Fulcher in series three episode ‘The Devil of Christmas’.
Shane Allen – Controller, BBC Comedy Commissioning – said: “Reece and Steve plough yet more fertile genre comedy talent to these modern masterpieces.”
Josh Cole – Head of Comedy, BBC Studios Production – commented: “We’re delighted to have concluded filming the sixth season of ‘Inside No. 9’.
“It’s a unique series we could not be prouder of, and we are in awe of Reece and Steve’s extraordinary ability to continually raise the bar. Long live ‘Inside No. 9!’ ”
‘Inside No. 9’ will return to BBC Two and iPlayer later this year.
