Steven Moffat\u2019s latest series Inside Man<\/a> is stacked to the rafters with star talent and is headlined by an incredible quartet \u2013 David Tennant, Stanley Tucci, Dolly Wells and Lydia West.<\/p>\n

Tucci has said his admiration of Tennant (and of Moffat\u2019s Sherlock)<\/a> persuaded him to take part in the series, while Tennant himself has said that \u201cit was terribly appealing to be part of\u201d<\/a> the show due to how \u201cterrifying\u201d yet \u201cplausible\u201d the story was.<\/p>\n

But who else stars in the four-part drama and who do they all play? Read on for everything you need to know about the cast of Inside Man.<\/p>\n
