Louisa Mellor, Den Of Geek, 15th June 2021TV review: Inside No 9 - Last Night Of The Proms
Interestingly on social media some people have been saying this is the best epsiode ever, some people saying it is the worst.

One thing is for certain, even a less than brilliant episode of Inside No 9 is better than most of the unimaginative tosh that passes for TV these days.
