Inside No. 9 7.3 review: Nine Lives Kat

When an episode of Inside No. 9 goes wrong it tends to be for one of two reasons, either the story itself was uninteresting, with an obvious twist, or the writers tried to do too much with their limited running time. "Nine Lives Kat" is most definitely a case of the latter - it's a little too ambitious for it's own good but I'd still rather have an experimental failure than a plodding safe bet. Seven seasons in, Shearsmith and Pemberton are still playing around with the format and audience expectations, which in itself is reassuring.

Wild Rose's combination of country music, big dreams and a star turn from a once-in-a-generation young talent has resulted in one of the best British films in years, says Simon Brew.
