A Quiet Night Inside

Tony owns the role of Macbeth at the Duke of Cambridge Theatre. He never takes a day off. Jim is the understudy. But he just doesn't seem to want the success he is destined for as much as other people in his life. The story of a fallen king on the battlements that mirrors elements of the plays they are performing in.

We muddle our way through this one with limited background in Shakespeare, fuelled by a deep appreciation of the performances.

Tamsin is a sick little girl. WishmakerUK agree to send legendary celebrity singer, Frankie Parsons to help celebrate her birthday. Tamsin's parents, Graham and Jan can't find their pumper, so the balloons have to be blown up manually, the old fashioned way. Frankie helps out. Then passes out.

Tom is a teacher. He wants to be a writer. He lives with his girlfriend, Gerri who has just got a new job playing a WW2 character called D Day Dorris. While she is out, a homeless man called Migg find's Tom's wallet and returns it. Wanting to repay his honesty, Tom, gives him some money. Wanting to repay his generosity, Migg, buys Tom a bottle of whisky. Tom invites him in for a quick drink, he then ends up moving in, as Tom embarks on a downward spiral into the life of an alcoholic author...much like his hero, Charles Bukowski.

In this episode of the podcast we share our initial reactions to Tom and Gerri.

'A Quiet Night In' is the second episode of the first series of Inside No 9. Almost completely free of dialogue, it's the slapstick story of a domestic art heist, which takes place in the home of a couple experiencing some challenges in their relationship.

In this podcast we get into the nuts and bolts of the episode, and propose that beneath the simple exterior, there is a lot going on.

This is our first peak into the worlds that Steve Pemberton and Reece Shearsmith have created for Inside No. 9. It's bizarre, it's weird, but it also seems to make a lot of sense.

We take a fresh look at Sardines; the ultimate 'bottle show', set in a wardrobe, inside a room, in a big country house. At an engagement party there is a game of Sardines being played, and as guests cram into the closet, past traumas have been reignited.

We're Andy and Steve, and we've been wanting to listen to a podcast about Inside No. 9. We've searched for one, but been unsuccessful in our endeavours.

So we're starting one...

Over the coming weeks and months we invite you to watch or re-watch the show with us. We will be going through episode by episode; delving into the dark, the odd, and the delightful.

In this introduction show we explain a little more about why we're doing this. And why now.
