Inside No. 9 is to return for a Halloween special, which will be filmed 'live'.

The special will be broadcast on BBC Two in October, and comes ahead of Series 5 which is scheduled for 2019.

The BBC confirms: "The award winning and critically acclaimed anthology series created by and starring Steve Pemberton and Reece Shearsmith, will be returning to BBC Two this October for a special Halloween edition.

"As with all previous episodes of Inside No. 9, this brand new 30 minute story promises to be a twisted tale which will aim to surprise, delight, unnerve and amuse in equal measure."

The producers add: "Full storyline information and casting details will be revealed in due course, but aside from being a Halloween special this particular tale will have one very large and noticeable difference unlike all other Inside No. 9's before it, as this episode will be broadcast to the nation completely live."
