You could see it coming a mile off though but still funny nevertheless.

We did like a few bits - as above, “where’s she from? Silvia Young” and the ending. Once again, could see it coming but still an amusing ending.

Will continue watching and looking forward to them. I guess it’s difficult to keep surprising with twists and turns after this many excellent episodes?

Bumping for tonight’s episode...

I thought last night's one was poor. Worst one since I can remember.

To be honest, there havent been that many "great" ones recently at all.

It wasn't bad really. Its only flaw was that the 'twist' was obvious from the beginning.

Yeah, I saw it coming too. Enjoyable, but still.

[Deep Thought]

+1

We just got round to watching it and we thought it was quite good. Obvious twist from the beginning, as said.

[Randy Winkman]

I quite liked it. The ending was basic but I thought the acting was good and the characters funny. I did wonder why she stuck with it on each occasion but that was obviously part of the tale.

Recorded it and watching it back... the intro said it's been cancelled.

There's a programme on instead called 3x3... a quiz show... it's hosted by Lee Mack and it's so bloody weird it's almost like it is an episode but there is no sign of the usual suspects...

So strange. The contestants are very special.

It’s def a parody - the daughter is just incredible.

Bit disappointed they tried the same trick twice.

Indeed. Hope its done better this time.

Never heard of Inside Number 9, and saw a Lee Mack gameshow on the EPG so thought I'd give it a go as I'm a fan of the 1% club.

I had a couple of moments where it was a case of "wtf... really?!" such as the last team being the guy's ex and current girlfriend, and the cricket answer, but it was a case of "I think this will be hilarious on Gogglebox" as it was so low budget and tragic.

The end was just ridiculous though - I was still just about on the hook (but definitely wriggling free) until the Carrie / Poltergeist vibes became too OTT (and the stuff going on with the soundproof booth etc.) at which point the penny definitely dropped.

I first started fast forwarding it thinking the BBC had ballsed up the schedule Then realised so watched it, Thought it was a crap game show that turned into Strangers things in the last 5 minutes. Twigged the telepathy/Telekinesis stuff about halfway through.

[robemcdonald]

The actors let it down (including Lee Mack)

[Legacywr]

It was just rubbish.

It wasn't that good.

[SmithCorona]

I think it was quite enjoyable, some signposting of her powers with the Matilda question.

All of the actors could have relaxed a tad, though.

I'm sure the uptightness was intentional.

[SmithCorona]

Yes with family, but all of them felt like they were playing a part as opposed to being natural.
