Inside No. 9 returns tonight for its latest festive special The Bones of St Nicholas, in which a group of champers (church campers) gather on Christmas Eve, only to find themselves haunted by a mysterious presence.<\/p>\n

Simon Callow guest stars as eccentric warden Dick, who is preparing to tell his guests a ghost story in this first-look clip, released exclusively for readers of RadioTimes.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The episode also stars Inside No. 9<\/a> co-creators Steve Pemberton and Reece Shearsmith, with the former playing aloof historian Dr Jasper Parkway and the latter his unwanted visitor, Pierce.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, former Coronation Street<\/a> favourite Shobna Gulati appears in the role of Posy, wife to Pierce, who shares some of her husband\u2019s distracting habits \u2013 much to the chagrin of Dr Parkway.<\/p>\n
