Inside No9 -if there's a new series , who would you like to see as "guests"

[70isaLimitNotaTarget]

In the past 8 series , Shearsmith and Pemberton have had a positive galaxy of stars joining them.
Either they've made loads of contacts and friends , or they have the dirt on people .

I'm going with friends , who wouldn't want to work with the lovely Steve Pemberton?

So- my list would include (previous collegues)

Jennifer Ellison ( The Cottage)
Rupert Penry Jones(Whitechapel)
Sarah Lancashire (Happy Valley)
Siobhan Finneran (Happy Valley/Benidorm)

Who's on your Fantasy List ?

Surrane Jones
Emma Thompson
Emily Blunt
Idris Elba
Paul Rudd

I could go on all night

Tamsin Greig would be brilliant - I can't think if they've worked together before, but I think she's a great fit for the No 9 universe.

Diane Morgan is another one.

Bob Mortimer and Matt Berry. They and Reece have regular 'gossip club' meet ups where they discuss other celebrities 😂

Diane Morgan was in the boat one

Tamsin Greig was in The Last Gasp in the first series.

So she was! I forgot about that.

I need to go back and watch everything again, I think! What a hardship. 😉

For Horrible Histories crossovers I think they should get Larry Rickard and Martha Howe Douglas. Mat, Jim and Ben have all been in episodes

Not sure about Simon Farnaby

I watched some of the latest series today (Bones of St Nicholas and The Last Weekend) which then took me into The League of Gents . I watched all of Series 1 then episode 1 of Series 2.

It was very ahead of its time and they all looked so young ( I am just over a year older than Steve Pemberton )
LoG is not for the easily offended

I'll add to my fantasy list
Emily Atack

Most of the guests seem to be people one or other of them has worked with - I think it’s a good guarantee of excellence!

Daniel Kaluuya would be good I think. They worked with him in Psychoville.

I need to start LOG. I binge watched all of IN9 after never having seen it. Some of them so dark. I liken them to the modem day Tales of the Unexpected.

Another for the list - Sarah Lancashire

The difference between INo9 and Tales of the Unexpected, though, is that INo9 is actually unexpected, rather than workable-out in the first ten minutes 😁

Julia Davis
Cillian Murphy
Claire Foy
Stephen Graham

I did predict a couple of IN9 once I got into the gist of it but defo much unexpectedness!

If I watched TOTU today I'd probs call it TOTE but back in the day I was quite young! They used to scare me - along with Sapphire and Steele 😱
