Inside No 9 - BBC 2

[anonymous-user]

proper nod to old skool comedy. Really nice feeling.

[ajprice]

For the first half I was wondering where it was going to go, then boom. Was laughing at the Yew Tree stuff

No 9 is one of those to watch the episodes twice to catch things at the beginning once you know how it ends. I didn't spot it but the hare must have been on one of the tables of props and tat.

The episode was really good though, and it had a reference to Psychoville

I spotted the hare for the first time



It was on the table with the teapot next to the big pepper grinder. Visible in bottom right corner of screen when Steve Pembertons character is speaking about half way through

What did I miss? What's the significance of the hare?

[lufbramatt]

There's a little bronze figurine of a hare that's hidden somewhere on the set in every episode. Bit of a game to try and spot it.

[Halb]

O had no idea.

How did you discover that?

[lufbramatt]

They've said about it in interviews a while back. Was an in-joke at first but then they decided to make sure it was in every episode to link them together as the stories are all so different. Apparently it also appeared in Edward + Tubb's flat (which was no.9) in the recent Leaque of Gentlemen series.

Well..............that was incredible.
Wonderful piece of television. Inside No 9 is like little half hour works of Art.
Was at a meeting last night, I've not drank for over 4 years and this I must admit made me well up.

I missed seasons 1 and 2 when they were first released. Spotted that season 3 was released so have started binge watching from the start.

Definitely hit and miss but some great stuff in there, and wonderfully black comedy.

"Fingers only!"

[Halb]

Yes it is hit and miss, but they are playing around with the concept, creating being new, so there will be. And when it works it's magic.

I loved the Cheese and Crackers one. Absolutely loved it for it's simple, odd miserableness. One or two funny bits but that's not the point for me. It's the downbeat quirkiness I like.

[Halb]

A return to form there, that was brilliant.

[cuprabob]

Enjoyed that one too especially as it had my lovely Emilia in it

[ajprice]

Just watch it, and watched it again, err, backwards . It's a good one, they've both said how difficult it was to put together and film.

[Smiler.]

Yep, another first class episode.

[K12beano]

Agreed - cracker!

Twitterings, and I didn't see it but Steve Pemberton was on Sunday Brunch and tried to explain that an episode was 10 minute backwards ordered sections.
